“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
from the Crafty Contemplative
Orthodox Christians take the imperative “pray constantly” very seriously, and rejoicing and giving thanks are aspects of it.
John Sanidopoulos two years ago in his weblog addressed the United States of America’s Thanksgiving holiday in terms of it’s appropriation by Orthodox Christians. He briefly gives a history of Thanksgiving in America and a summary of our way of participation in it, as well as a number of resources which also address Thanksgiving. One of them is the Akathist of Thanksgiving which has been shared here every Thanksgiving since this weblog has existed.

And recently, Fr Stephen Freeman put Thanksgiving in Orthodox Christian perspective with his post “A Life of Thanksgiving“ on his weblog Glory to God for All Things: http://glory2godforallthings.com/2012/11/11/a-life-of-thanksgiving/

Fortunately, as with most shortcomings, there’s a plugin to solve the problem. After you build a page, it automatically shows up in the main menu as a link. You will need to make sure that it is smaller before trying to upload the music file.
