Give Thanks
Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, bless his name. For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations
(Psalm 100:4-5).
As we gather with family and friends this week, the Northwestern Ohio Synod staff is thankful for each and every one of you, and all of the ways you care for your communities, walk with each other, and share your unique, God-given gifts with the world. We are God’s church together, and we are blessed to be able to be on the way with you.

Almighty God our Father, your generous goodness comes to us new every day. By the work of your Spirit lead us to acknowledge your goodness, give thanks for your benefits, and serve you in willing obedience, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
Amen.
