Dear NTCC Family,

Let’s Laugh:
Thanksgiving dinners take 18 hours to prepare. They are consumed in 12 minutes. Half-times take 12 minutes. This is not coincidence. Erma Bombeck

Thanksgiving, man. Not a good day to be my pants. Kevin James

A new survey found that 80% of men claim they help cook Thanksgiving dinner. Which makes sense, when you hear they consider saying 'that smells good' to be helping. Jimmy Fallon

What kind of music did the Pilgrims like? Plymouth Rock.

My family told me to stop telling Thanksgiving jokes ... but I told them I couldn't quit "cold turkey.”

Let’s Ponder:
Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. ~William Arthur Ward

"In ordinary life we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we give, and that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich." -- Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Let’s Pray:
"Lord God, let me never forget all that you do for me on a daily basis. Sustain me with the hope of my salvation and the other countless blessings you provide with your continuous presence in my life. Lead me to live my life in testimony to your incredible blessings, that your love may be known and experienced by all those I serve, in Jesus' name. Amen."
Rev. Rick Jones
