Our Father in Heaven,

We give thanks for who is gathered around this table, for you have brought us together

And tonight we have many who have grown up from childhood, together, beginning their own journeys, and one day be hosting a thanksgiving, and I hope to model with this prayer and rejoice when it hear it as something complete-

Lord hear our prayer, bless this food we are about to eat . Let us remember who serves us today, have families, too, and who tended this meal, and the turkey we are about to eat, have dreams that our prayer can honor as well as our own..

We give thanks for life,
The freedom to enjoy it all
And all other blessings.
We accept from those not sittin here today and for those still to come...
