Thanksgiving is Really A Catholic Holiday


Here's an interesting link my good friend Fr. Ezaki sent me. We often think of Thanksgiving as a pilgrim/puritan holiday, but check out this article. Looks like Squanto Crossed the Tiber before the Puritans could get to him!
Also, the Greek word Eucharist means Thanksgiving, referring to when Jesus took the bread in his hands and gave thanks and broke the bread and said "This is my body."
