Catholic Thanksgiving Prayer

Thanksgiving, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of every November, is a day to be grateful and to offer thanks to the Almighty, family, and friends. Family get-togethers, feasting on delicious meals and delicacies, extravagant parades and performances, and good old school aggressively played football; all these things are near synonymous with this holiday. Amidst all this merriment, there's another aspect to this day that shouldn't be forgotten or overlooked. It is this aspect that adds weight to this day. It is a day to be thankful; for what was, what is, and what will be. And there's no better way to express your thankfulness for the people and things in your life than by way of saying it in prayer. The words of Victor Hugo sum it up "Thanksgiving has wings and goes where it must go. Your prayer knows much more about it than you do." Below have been mentioned some thanksgiving prayers to use on this to-be-grateful day. Make sure to go through them.
