Thanksgiving Offering for Special Need

Thanksgiving Greetings!

Once again, we are nearing that time of year in which we express our Thanksgiving to God. He is truly our provider and source of blessings.

Perhaps you've noticed, as I have, that as soon as October is over and November arrives, we begin to see Christmas decorations immediately go up! While I'm thrilled when Christmas comes, I'm always just a bit sentimental about the importance of Thanksgiving. Even on the first of November, I'm already seeing ads for Black Friday, and also Black Friday seems to start earlier than ever!

Somebody slow down and be thankful!

I'm sending this Thanksgiving Offering Letter as we usually do at some point before Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Sunday, we are looking forward to receiving a special Thanksgiving Offering that assists us as a church to be a blessing.

Holiday Letter to Homebound Church Member

Psalm 106:1 – Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; His love endures forever.

One of the great themes of the Bible is that we are to be a people of Thanksgiving, not just one particular day of the year, but as Christians, we are to be thankful daily.

On behalf of the Congregation here at First Christian Church, I wanted to take a moment to send a note to let you know we are thinking about you during this special time of the year.

Invitation to Thanksgiving Themed Sunday Service

Greetings in Christ!

We are looking forward to a wonderful service the Sunday before Thanksgiving as we take time to appreciate and express our thanks to the Lord for His bountiful blessings in our lives.

I’m reminded a bit about a tremendous story in the Bible, Luke 17:11-19 where Jesus healed ten lepers. Yet, while 9 of the lepers went their way rejoicing in their healing, only 1 of them in fact turned around to go back to express his thanks to the Lord for the miracle that had taken place in his life.

Imagine that! 1 out of 10 said thank you! We are often so quick to correct and instruct our children when it comes to the importance of saying, “thank you.” You and I are challenged on a weekly basis, and yes, even daily, to express our love and appreciation to the Lord.
