thanksgiving prayer




Prayers on Thanksgiving have traditionally been led by community or religious leaders to give thanks for a bountiful harvest. At home, families often begin a Thanksgiving meal with a special remembrance saying grace for blessings both big and small. Thanksgiving prayers and quotes to inspire this day of thanks are great ways to spread the word about the many things we have to be thankful for.

It has been a centuries-old tradition of giving thanks that the Pilgrims sat down with the Wampanoag Indians for the first historic American Thanksgiving in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

Giving thanks is something we should all do on a daily basis and Thanksgiving Day has become widely known as the day everyone gathers to express these sentiments to family and friends.
