Saying Grace: A Prayer of Thanksgiving (Traditions of Faith)

Find special mealtime prayers and Thanksgiving activities inside! Grace's mind was racing. What was that spelling word that meant 'great generosity in giving'? She squeezed her eyes shut, and it came to her. Bounty. That was the word! Journey back in time with Grace and relive both the hardships and blessings along with her pioneer family. Saying Grace tells the story of one girl and her discovery of the value of mealtime prayer at her family's first Thanksgiving. Grace is worried about the coming winter, but happily it proves to be mild, and the next fall when Thanksgiving is celebrated, she starts a tradition of giving blessings to God before the meal. Includes author's note about the history of saying grace and suggested activities. (Note: Fictional, rather than historical, as "saying grace" isn't actually named after a person named Grace.)
