Thanksgiving Sunday is November 21st
Many of the holidays we celebrate in our church are preceded by a season that builds our anticipation of the celebration. For Christmas, we have Advent. For Easter, we have Passiontide and Holy Week. For Pentecost, we have Eastertide. Let us also create a season of Thanksgiving to carry us towards this holiday. During this season, we have the opportunity to be intentionally aware of what God has given us, to increase our joy in Him, and to strengthen our trust in Him.
Small group series on "Giving is..."
Going into the Season of Thanksgiving (October & November), our small group curriculum will be seven sessions focused on "Giving is…", available in booklet form. Facilitators should order books for their small group participants. Every person in your small group should have a booklet, and they are available at no cost to the participants (in the United States).
