Oak Lawn United Reformed Church Thanksgiving Day Service 2024
Today is Thanksgiving! I hope and pray you will have special time with your family. We pray for those for whom the holiday will be a mixture of joy and grief. Yet whether in joy or that mixture, I also hope that all able will come into the house of the Lord for our gathered attention to the worship of God. We will have corporate worship at 10:00 this morning.
