This year, the Thanksgiving Bible Lesson from the Christian Science Quarterly is again being made available in a stand-alone full text booklet format. Because of the overwhelming response received after last year's issue, plans for the Thanksgiving Full Text booklet were put in motion earlier, and as a result, the booklet will be available in time for the Canadian observance of Thanksgiving in October as well as for individual study throughout September, October, and November.
While not all countries celebrate Thanksgiving as a national holiday, the idea of giving thanks is certainly universal, and we cherish the opportunity provided by the Thanksgiving Lesson to bring focus and study to the activity of gratitude.
The full text Thanksgiving Lesson booklet will again be available from Reading Rooms for the special price of US$1 so that copies may be shared generously. Besides being useful for individual study, the Thanksgiving full text could be shared as an invitation to the Thanksgiving Day service, as a gift to individuals attending church services or lectures, as gifts to homeless shelters, hospitals, waiting rooms, centers for the elderly, and many more.
