Dear God in heaven… thank you for the sunshine and rain and for the warmth from the sun and from each other… our love for each other, our care, the warmth from inside.  May we continue to be thankful throughout the year.  Help us to slow down and notice what is around us to be thankful for.  Help us to overlook the eclipse at the beauty around us and goodness from you… in supplying our spiritual and physical needs… through those in our church.  Bless those that are not able to be here.  Keep us all in your care.  Open our minds.  May your spirit guide us.  Amen
