Almighty God our Father, your generous goodness comes to us new every day. By the work of your Spirit, lead us to acknowledge your goodness, give thanks for your benefits, and serve you in willing obedience, through Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord. Amen.Evangelical Lutheran Worship, page 61
Last night's combined Thanksgiving Eve service with All Saints Episcopal church was a success. With about 90 people in attendance, joyful music, good preaching and reverent liturgy, we gave thanks to God for his many blessings. Thank you to all of the Festival choir members who came and sang "With A Voice of Singing." Thank you to our new friends at All Saints for initiating this venture: Father Thomas W. Deppe, Father Gee Alexander, and Interim Parish Musician Sharon Murawski. We look forward to worshiping with you again soon!
As you give thanks today, remember to happily feed the angels and not worry so much about the vacuuming!

Tony,
This sounds like a grand service. But how could it not be. Your music and Fr. Gee's preaching. Oohlala!
Many blessings to you and yours,
