ДЫк это ж всё когда было – в 2012, в 2015, а теперь они, конечно же, исправились... э-э-э...

И вам доброго Дня Благодарения, и спасибо за постоянные обзоры!

Благодарили Провидение за свободу и изобилие. За победу над Британией. За то, что Франция признала 13 колоний. Приглашали indigenous people разделить празднество, но никогда благодарение не было событием в их честь. Как мало нужно времени чтобы об этом забыть. Достаточно избавиться от книг.

Thank You, O Lord, for having helped us to overcome all difficulties, tensions, passions, temptations and restored peace, mutual love and joy in sharing the communion of the Holy Spirit.
...
Thank You, O Lord, for having given us this country where we are free to worship You.
...
Thank You, O Lord, for our families: husbands, wives and, especially, children who teach us how to celebrate Your holy Name in joy, movement and holy noise.

Thank You, O Lord, for everyone and everything.
