Search Results - Thanksgiving

Type in a word or phrase to search:

Thanksgiving, or Thanksgiving Day, is a traditional North American holiday, which is a form of harvest festival. The date and whereabouts of the first Thanksgiving celebration is a topic of modest contention, though the earliest attested Thanksgiving celebration was on September 8, 1565 in what is now Saint Augustine, Florida.[1] Despite any scholarly research to the contrary, however, the traditional "first Thanksgiving" is venerated as having occurred at the site of Plymouth Plantation, in 1621.

Today, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States.

In Grenada there is a national holiday of Thanksgiving Day on 25 October. It is unrelated to holidays in Canada and the United States even though it bears the same name. It marks the anniversary of the US-led invasion of the island in 1983 in response to the deposition and execution of Grenadan Prime Minister Maurice Bishop.[2]

The Thanksgiving Address is a process which has gone on for thousands of years. It is an oral tradition that gets passed down from generation to generation which still goes on to this day. The Thanksgiving Address is called the (Ohenton Kariwatekhwen) O-Honn-Doo Ga-Re-Wa-Deh-Gwonh. In the (Kanien'Kehaka) Ga-Kneeu'-Gay-Haa] language this means the words that come before all else.

5. Things to be Thankful For
October 02, 2008

Things to be Thankful For Seeing that Thanks Giving is right around the corner, I thought it would be fitting to write an article about things that I am thankful to have in my life. Realizing that we all should be thankful for the things which we have all year round, sometimes we forget to think about them until either something happens that inhibits them from being in our lives, or when Holidays roll around. For me personally, my family definitely takes top spot in the things which I am thankful for. I believe that each of us live our lives and work toward goals in order to m... (read more)

September 29, 2008

In Philippians Chapter 4 verse 6 it says in the King James version of the Bible, “ Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” Verse 7 continues to say, “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Using the imagery of the swimmer, in maybe a channel that is warm and inviting but still needs to be traversed, how does an individual channel to the place of peace and find the actually arrival point?

I'M FRYING MY TURKEY By Kate Carlson This Thanksgiving I'm trying something different. As a northern transplant in the south, the idea of frying your Thanksgiving turkey seemed crazy, and actually kind of gross. But last year, my husband and I went to a friend's house for Thanksgiving. We weren't aware though that they were going to be frying their turkey. When we got there and saw out friend in the front yard, with a large deep fryer, it was too late to run.

And even before you get your first chance to bask in the sun at the beach, the stores and newspapers are promoting their "Back to School" sales.

17. Acceptable Prayer
August 01, 2008

When a person runs into trouble in his or her life they are often counseled to pray. That is usually one of the very first things that are done and most certainly we ought to turn to God in our times of trouble. James says, "Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray." (James 5:13 NAS) The writer of the book of Hebrews tells us to "draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need."
