Happy Thanksgiving

I hope you will meet and eat with your family and or extended family tomorrow and enjoy a family feast.  As pastor Rush says just be calm and have pleasant conversation.  Thanksgiving is no time for family arguments or to discuss politics or even route for different football teams.  Well, you can do the latter, but quietly if you are not in your own home.

I received the following Langston Hughes quote from the Princeton Center for African American Studies.

Remember Christ Church Summit will meet on Sunday November 25 for our regular Sunday Services 9:30 and 11:15 AM Hope to see you there if you are in town or just drop in if you are visiting in town.

We are collecting food for the Food Bank so bring a bag of food. Check with what is needed from previous posts.

Christ Church Summit 561 Springfield Ave. Summit, NJ www.ccsnj.org     "Thanksgiving Time" Langston Hughes, 1921   When the night winds whistle through the trees and blow the crisp brown leaves a-crackling down, When the autumn moon is big and yellow-orange and round, When old Jack Frost is sparkling on the ground, It's Thanksgiving Time! When the pantry jars are full of mince-meat and the shelves are laden with sweet spices for a cake, When the butcher man sends up a turkey nice and fat to bake, When the stores are crammed with everything ingenious cooks can make, It's Thanksgiving Time! When the gales of coming winter outside your window howl, When the air is sharp and cheery so it drives away your scowl, When one's appetite craves turkey and will have no other fowl, It's Thanksgiving Time!"
