Use these Web pages to learn the sign language for the words Thanksgiving, thank you, and God. As you consider the story of the Israelite’s flight across the Jordan River, remember that the same mighty God who led the Israelites is also at work in your life. Begin to think of all that God has done for you. Make a mental of list of things you’d like to thank God for.
Take turns thanking God for each of the things on your list. Use the following format, signing the words that are in quotation marks: During “Thanksgiving” week, I “thank you, God” for [insert something from your list]. When each family member has finished his or her list, ask God to help you remember to share with others what God has done for you when opportunities present themselves.

About FM Blog
Hello, my name is Rev. Bobby Cook and I am the Associate Pastor for Family Ministry. Family Ministry at Redland Baptist Church is a holistic and intergenerational approach to ministry. Leading the church to come alongside of parents to encourage, equip, and empower them to be the primary disciplers at home to reach this and future generations through the ministries of children, youth, and recreation.
This blog is one tool we use to pursue our purpose in Family Ministry for families to live out Deuteronomy 6:4-7. “Attention, Israel! God, our God! God the one and only! Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that’s in you, love him with all you’ve got! Write these commandments that I’ve given you today on your hearts. Get them inside of you and then get them inside your children. Talk about them wherever you are, sitting at home or walking in the street; talk about them from the time you get up in the morning to when you fall into bed at night.”
