Thanksgiving....

Last night we had our community Thanksgiving Dinner following Holy Hour.  Great skits, commentaries and reflections were offered.  Here are some pictures, along with my prayer in thanksgiving for these good men.



On this Thanksgiving night, O Lord, we give you thanks for all the graces you have showered upon each one of these, my
brothers and sons: for the courage with which he carries the crosses you give him; 
for the purity with which he joins his life to yours; for the intensity with which he glorifies your name; for the love with which he surrenders to your will; for the beauty of his faith; for the fullness of his joy; and for the peace with which you have anointed his heart.


We give you thanks O Lord, for each man here: for these blessings, for this food and for the fellowship 
which makes us one in you. Bless it all, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
