This is one of my favorite times of the year because I get to be encouraged along with you hearing the wonderful things that God is doing in the lives of people.

And so you're going to hear from several folks tonight just some brief testimonies of how God has been faithful to them or how God has helped them or is helping them and and we can

just rejoice together and then um uh we will you know just make our way through these different

uh folks that we've invited over the year we've you know kept our ear to the ground listening to

different things about the ways that God has ministered to people.

And then we've tapped some people on the shoulder and said, hey, you know, we've heard

about your story. Would you be willing to share tonight? And so we have five different

individuals or couples or families who are going to be sharing tonight. Before I invite the first

one up, I wanted to be able to read a Thanksgiving Day

proclamation. Now, normally I go to the White House website and I download whatever the

Thanksgiving proclamation is that the president issues. And I'll say it could be me, because I

don't know, but I couldn't find one this year.

I'm serious.

I could not find it.

I saw a transgender statement.

I didn't see a Thanksgiving statement.

I'm like, oy vee, is it me or has he just not issued one yet?

Well, nobody, nobody told me.

So I, you know, maybe, maybe that's it too.

Nobody's told him.

I don't know, but I could not find one.

Now, you can correct me.
