Thanksgiving Day 27 November 2008
Click here to download this homily (11 minutes) given by Fr. Thomas Weise. Only one of the ten persons with leprosy returns to give thanks to Jesus for the healing he had received. How often does our own familiarity with our abundant blessings cause us to at least appear ungrateful?

As we gather for the Eucharist (Greek for thanksgiving) let us call to mind our many blessings.
