Thanksgiving
Doodling our Faith Stories
Busy families don’t always take time to notice how the Spirit is helping them to grow in their relationship with God. By talking,
writing, and doodling together, you can learn more about faith from one another. When Thanksgiving arrives, use your poster of doodled faith stories to thank God for blessing your family during this season and throughout your lives. |

A Thanksgiving Tree
And I pick up a pen
to thank through the fall days. And the dark ebbs and the shadows dim – and all the trees and the thankful ignite with the true colours of the glorious now. |
