Even in praise of the Lord God, who is just and infinite in loving mercy, to stay at home alone on Thanksgiving is concerning to hear from you Pede. It is our families, our companions and friends, that let us grow most in worship. Even if I were engaged, with my rosary and my prayers, I believe isolation from loved ones on this holiday is beyond my possible thoughts.

Please, if it is applicable to you, read the lesson of Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 and call your family to tell them you are thankful for them.
