A Pagan Grace

We give thanks to Mother Nature,
The source of all nourishment.
We give thanks to the people who work hard,
So that food can come to our table.
We give thanks to the plants and the animals
Who die so that we may live.

This is the grace that we say before meals every night. We’ve also used it on occasions with non-Pagan groups and mixed Pagan and non-Pagan ones, to very positive reactions. So if you’re looking to say something before you settle down to your Thanksgiving Day feast, but don’t want to upset your non-Pagan friends and relatives, have this with our blessings!

Happy Feast of the Turkeys, everyone!
