Thanksgiving looks different this year.Today we will be talking about finding gratitude in difficult times.

Being grateful doesn’t mean ignoring the difficulties - it does mean keeping hope and love and relationships the center of our lives. It means thinking about next year - the stories we will share about “getting through Thanksgiving of 2020”

ITs OK to feel sad and angry and grateful all at the same time.

So many are struggle with mental health issues - we aren’t talking about that.

This year when we can’t be enjoying the traditions of being together celebrating - maybe we can focus on actively serving others in a different way.

Let's change that.

What about the kids?

We are their role models - and how we approach this Thanksgiving will leave a lasting impression on them.

Lets explore different ways of doing that.
