THANKSGIVINGThanksgiving Day is celebrated on the 2nd Monday of October in Canada, and the 4th Thursday of November in the U.S. It's a special time to offer thanks for blessings of abundance and the fall harvest. The first Thanksgiving dates back to
1621 with the Pilgrims in Plymouth, Massachusetts. The original
harvest feast gave thanks to God for their well being, following a
treacherous 2-month ocean voyage from England, and surviving their
first winter in America. The Pilgrims were also showing thanks to
the local American Indians who befriended them, and taught them how
to grow and store food crops. |
