"Every event and need can become an offering of thanksgiving." (Catechism of the Catholic Church, No. 2638)
"The prayer of thanksgiving always begins with recognizing that 'grace precedes us.' We were thought of before we learned how to think; we were loved before we learned how to love; we were desired before our hearts conceived a desire. If we view life like this, then 'thank you' becomes the driving force of our day." Pope Francis, General Audience, Dec. 30, 2020
To all of our CCUSA Washington Weekly subscribers: We give thanks to God for you, and we wish you a blessed Thanksgiving.
