“Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His steadfast love endures forever!” – Psalm 106:1
What are your favorite Thanksgiving traditions? Which sounds, tastes, sights and smells of Thanksgiving do you treasure most? Many families, including mine, spend time circling the table sharing stories of thankfulness with each other. As we draw near to this cherished holiday, let’s go around our “table” and reminisce about what we are truly grateful for.
Thanksgiving allows us to look back on the year in joyful remembrance while also looking to the future with hope. As we recall the year at Hope Now, we have many reasons to be thankful. God has truly sustained and provided for us through faithful supporters, sponsors and advocates all over the world. It humbles us to see how He continued His good work in Ukraine throughout 2018. Specifically, we have seen God work this year through:
Through these exciting programs and new relationships established in 2018, God has continued to show us His provision and grace to Orphans, Family and Community. We are grateful for the ways He has called us to more holistically care for orphan graduates through our Orphan Graduate Program. As we look to the coming year, we rest in the fact that, “A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy dwelling.” (Psalm 68:5) And we thank Him for the ways He has protected and provided for His children in Ukraine in 2018. From our family at Hope Now to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
