Seven perfectly set tables bursting with all things Thanksgiving from snacks to seasonal pine cones to candles to custom made utensil sleeves, two plump turkeys waiting to be carved, cranberry sauce, the creamiest mash potatoes and gravy, breads, salads, vegetables, homemade oatmeal apple crumble, pumpkin pie, and so much love and appreciation to bring it all together. Everything was beautifully decorated with all the details to make Thanksgiving really come alive. All the love and hard work that went into creating this special banquet embraced us at the door the moment we stepped in. It was wonderful to see old friends with new friends enjoying time together, kickstarting the much anticipated holiday season.
Being thankful is such an important theme in God’s Word. Thank you, English Zone, for putting together such a memorable banquet overflowing with God’s love and grace.
2 Corinthians 4:15
All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
七個整齊排列的大餐桌上，擺滿各種與感恩節相關的物品：零食、應景的松果、蠟燭，手工印製的素雅餐具套，兩隻等待被大卸八塊的肥滿火雞，搭配火雞的蔓越莓醬汁，口感如奶油般的馬鈴薯泥，肉汁、麵包、沙拉、蔬菜、自製的蘋果派、南瓜派...。所有的一切，都經過精心的搭配與陳列，在我們一踏入六樓會議室的那一刻，就感受到滿滿的愛與眾人的擺上。許多英文堂的會友邀請了新朋友一起來享用餐點，在溫馨愉悅的氣氛中，這感恩節餐開啟了令人期待的聖誕季節。
在神的話語當中，知足感謝也是一個相當重要的主題。感謝您，英文牧區，為我們預備這樣一個值得紀念並且充滿上帝恩典與愛的盛宴。
凡事都是為你們，好叫恩惠因人多越發加增，感謝格外顯多，以致榮耀歸與神。哥林多後書4:15
