Harvest Thanksgiving
The third Sunday of September is Harvest Thanksgiving when in the Season of Creation we express our gratitude for what has been grown and gathered in over these last few weeks. It is also an opportunity to share what has been received by making an offering which in turn will be passed to a food-bank to assist those who struggle.
