| To Parents and Catechists: Lead the children to celebrate and show their thanks to God by praying a litany and sharing a gift with the needy. |
We Give Thanks for God's Gifts Listen to God's Word God, you are my God. I will give you thanks forever.
From Psalm 30:12 Pray Leader: For the beautiful gifts in God's world. All: Thank you, God. Leader: For the gift of people who love me, All: Thank you, God. Leader: For the gifts of food and clothing, All: Thank you, God. Listen to God's Word Jesus says, "Where two or three come together in my name, I am there with them."
From Matthew 18:20 Sing (To the tune of "Did You Ever See a Lassie?") Oh, we all have come together, together, together. Oh, we all have come together to give thanks to God. Yes, Jesus is with us. He helps us to thank God. Oh, we all have come together to give thanks to God. My Prayer Goes On Jesus, help me show my thanks by sharing with others. Color the Thanksgiving bow. Then cut out the bow. Use the bows on a gift of food that you will give to someone who needs it. Or give the bows to someone you love on Thanksgiving. Return to Spirituality Resources Index
