History of Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving begins when President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the last thursday of November to be a day of giving thanks and praise to God and his only son. This proclamation day was held on the civil war on October 3rd, 1836. The very first thanksgiving was held on 1621 by the Pilgrims. They invited Native Americans to join them and to eat what they harvested from their crops. We still celebrate thanksgiving today with turkey, stuffing, potatoes, pumpkin pie and cranberry sauce. In some countries, they celebrate their thanksgiving with a parade held on or around thanksgiving day. Some people take a four day weekend. It is called a 4 day weekend because they usually take a vacation the day after Thanksgiving. This holiday is celebrated because we want to give thanks for what we have and for the blessings that God gave us.
