On the eve of Thanksgiving Day, the parish will gather for Choral Evensong, offering to Almighty God the sacrifice of praise for the fruits of the earth and for all the blessings of this life. Following the Office, we will share a Thanksgiving potluck supper together in fellowship.
- When: Wednesday, November 25, at 6:00 p.m.
- Where: Saint Paul’s Anglican Church, 101 N El Monte Ave, Los Altos, CA 94022
- Potluck sign-up deadline: Saturday, November 21
The Potluck
This year’s supper will follow a coordinated menu, so that we have a well-rounded table and not twelve pies. Please choose an item to bring by Saturday, November 21.
The Collect for Thanksgiving Day
O MOST merciful Father, who hast blessed the labours of the husbandman in the returns of the fruits of the earth; We give thee humble and hearty thanks for this thy bounty; beseeching thee to continue thy loving-kindness unto us, that our land may still yield her increase, to thy glory and our comfort; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Book of Common Prayer (1928), Thanksgiving Day
Bring your family, invite a neighbor, and come give thanks with us. All are welcome.
