Luke 17:11-19 | When was the last time you heard, or said, “thank you”? Chances are that it hasn’t been too long. Societally, we’ve been trained to say “thank you” as a common courtesy. But has this cheapened our response of thanksgiving? And, is the act of saying “thank you” something that’s simply become a habit instilled in us over time, or is thanksgiving something that flows naturally from a personal experience of God’s grace? This weekend, we invite you to join us as we dig deeper into what gratitude and thanksgiving really boils down to in the Christian faith, and as we gather once again around the table where Christ is our host: offering himself and his grace to us, and to the world.
