Assurance and security is a heritage that makes each man who pessesses, the envy of that man who does not. At this time of Thanksgiving, who among us cannot give thanks for loving kindness, for assurance, for security? This is a relig- ious occasion, established by fore/athers, as a holiday to pro- claim a people's gratitude for their Creator's goodness. America has suffered many dark periods in her history. The landing of the colonists on the New England coast, faced by a wild, stormy winter, in a wilderness, with the task of establishing a refuge. was a crisis. Midst hardship, in 1621, these Pilgrims celebrated Thanksgiving, grateful for plenteous harvest. It lasted one week and 80 friendly Indians joined in the feasting. In perilous times, they met with God, to ask his blessing, to ask his guidance. Not only to give praise, but to seek spiritual help in building a new couniry, in choosing new leaders. They had reached a merci- ful haven and were joyful. Today finds the majority of us with the necessities of life, here in this community. Qur day of Thanksgiving should find us humble, as we remember that the real needs, such as food, clothing and shelter, do not exist in many parts of our world. The people of America have an abundance of good things, their freedom, their religious, educational, cultural rights. What trials have been ours in the past, what vicissitudes we face in the future, does not diminish but increases our prayers for mer- cies received. Until there is no such thing as time, will all hard- ship and inconvenience be ended. Life is both feasting and fasting. We who fail to proclaim our debt for His beneficience, are not a part of this life. | / ) y . | Unite Auxiliaries of Lancaster VOL.
