A Feast on the Feast

Christ the King
Yesterday, on the great feast of Christ the King, we held our annual feast of thanksgiving at Pistachio House.

Franksgiving 2015We had a houseful of guests for dinner, including family and friends. We ate good food, drank good vino tinto (or beer, tonic, cider, water, coffee, or tea as the occasion demanded), played board games, wore silly hats, talked, and laughed.

As it is every year at this time, Pistachio House was transformed into a great feasting hall of the ancient of days.

It was an early thanksgiving, an opportunity to gather with some of those we love and give thanks to our creator for the bounties of His universe.

Almighty ever-living God,
whose will is to restore all things
in your beloved Son, the King of the universe,
grant, we pray,
that the whole creation, set free from slavery,
may render your majesty service
and ceaselessly proclaim your praise.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.

Amen.
