THANKSGIVING 2010 IN CHRASTAVA AND RYCHNOV
We got to celebrate Thanksgiving twice this year.
On November 19th Pastor Simon Dvorak of the Church in Chrastava welcomed 30 guests to his church to enjoy a full turkey dinner. Ken cooked and presented the whole roasted turkey and Linda gave a slide show on the history and traditions of Thanksgiving in America. Many of the guests currently or formerly attend(ed) our English conversation groups that we hold weekly in the Chrastava church. Each table had a turkey craft in which each person wrote on turkey feathers what he/she was thankful for this year and then each table shared it with the group.
The following week we traveled to Rychnov for our second full turkey dinner with 30 members of the church there and their guests. We again did the turkey craft to share what we were thankful for and presented a slide show about Thanksgiving traditions in America. Thanksgiving is such a natural way to share about our faith and thankfulness to God for His many blessings.
