Thanksgiving day we celebrated with our Thursday evening English class and their families along with our church group. It was a great outreach evening to meet new friends and to think about why we are thankful.
Those of you familiar with small European appliances will appreciate my fear when Larry came home with an 18 kilo turkey. The meat market here isn't used to orders for turkeys, so every year we get whatever the farmer has available. This year was the biggest we've gotten yet and when Larry came home with it I was certain there was no way it was going in the oven. Maybe some of you can relate, but I have a husband that -when I say it is impossible-he WILL find a way to accomplish the impossible task. Needless to say, the turkey fit into the oven and tasted absolutely delicious.
We enjoyed the story of the first Thanksgiving and were able to share why we are thankful for what Christ has done for us and to Whom we are thankful.
Honestly, when we looked around the room at the precious people there, we knew we had a lot to be thankful for. We are constantly humbled and eternally grateful that God has allowed us to be a part of what He is doing in Plzen, Czech Republic.
