Thanksgiving LitanyLet us join together in prayer and give thanks to the Lord, for he

is good; his mercy endures forever.God thank you for harvests of plenty, Small seeds multiplying to

feed many, Trees blossoming into abundant fruit, sweet tomatoes ripening on the vine.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever.

God thank you for harvests overflowing, Enough for our own needs and an abundance to share, Enough to feed the hungry

and provide for the destitute, Enough to reach out with generosity and care.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever.

God thank you for seeds planted in our hearts, Seeds of righteousness yielding goodness and mercy, Seeds of love

yielding justice and peace, Seeds of compassion yielding healing and renewal.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever.

God thank you for the bread of heaven, Christ our Saviour planted in our lives, Christ our redeemer growing in our hearts,

Christ your Son making us one with you.Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures

forever.God thank you for the gift of life, like water poured out on thirsty

ground, Spring and autumn rains that revive and bring life, A river that flows from your heart and out into the world you love.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever.

YOUTH GROUPThere will be no Youth Group this Friday

THE CHURCH OFFICEPlease take a moment to look at the new floor in the church office. We will miss the bumps and

waves in the old carpet but this new flooring will be much safer for our staff and volunteers.

Thank you to all who gave their time and energy to move furniture, files and boxes.

OUR HARVEST DECORATIONSWe appreciate the hardworking group who decorated the church for our Thanksgiving Service today. Hopefully we will be able to

enjoy them for a few weeks.

IT’S A BIT WARMER THIS SUNDAYAfter our chilly Sunday Morning last week, a

quick call was made to our Heating Specialists. When the furnace controls were reconfigured,
