The Litany of Thanksgiving

22 November 2007

In observance of Thanksgiving, I thought I would share the Litany of Thanksgiving used at the Thanksgiving Eve Service held 21 November 2007 at Memorial Lutheran Church in Ames, Iowa. The litany was written by late Pastor Richard G. Kapfer. He was the past President of Iowa District West for the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod and former Senior Pastor at Memorial while I was growing up in the 1970s and 1980s. The litany gives thanks for what we have experienced this past year and in our life times. Please enjoy the read and Happy Thanksgiving.
