Thanksgiving Greetings from Jan Parker [National Minister]

Dear Franciscan Family,

Peace, joy and all good things through Christ who blesses us!

We'll soon celebrate a Thanksgiving like no other, but some things will never change. For that I am most grateful.  As we rejoice and give thanks, please know how deeply I care for you, and how much it means to me to be a part of this wonderful worldwide Franciscan family.

I'd like to share a song with you  - Thank God for this Thanksgiving Day  - a song that really touched my heart.  It's beautiful to watch, and the lyrics show up in such a unique way... I think you'll enjoy it.

As we watch together, as the food being prepared, and the table being set - we can just imagine sitting down together at this table -- wouldn't it be great to all be together?  I trust that the day is coming when we will be able to gather safely with those we love --  and someday, with God's grace, we'll ALL be at the same table.  What a Thanksgiving feast that will be! 

Feel free to share this message with all the sisters and brothers.  
God bless you all, God bless our Franciscan family, and Happy Thanksgiving!

Love and prayers,
Your sister, 
Jan
