Well, we asked and you answered. Many of you submitted great blogs in response to our Thanksgiving contest question. So many, in fact, that we couldn’t pick just one winner—we picked five! We’ll post a winning entry to the Threads blog each day next week, so check back daily to see if you’re a winner.

We had a great time meeting many of you at STORY Conference a few weeks ago. Thanks for taking the time to talk—we were so excited to hear about the incredible stuff that God is doing where you live and serve. Be in touch—drop us a line on the blog or send us an e-mail. We’d love to hear from you.

Our next newsletter won’t be until after Thanksgiving, so we hope you have a wonderful time of rest over the holiday. We’re praying for you as you join family or friends to remember the good things God’s done in your lives.
