God our Father,

Praise and thanks we offer unto you today, as we celebrate Thanksgiving with love and devotion. Thank you for your countless blessings upon us all. There is no word that adequately describes how gracious you are to all of us. May we always be grateful, not just today, but every day.

Bless all the families who gather today. May this day be a day of renewal of love and commitment.

Amen.

Festival Opens Tomorrow

Known as the world's largest Christmas Choral Festival, more than 150 choirs will perform over the course of 32 nights in the Chapel of Mary, known for its cathedral-like acoustics. 

There are nightly puppet shows and caroling in the pavilion tent, and don't forget the millions of lights and our walk-thru Christmas tree!

Get your tickets now and consider taking advantage of our value nights coming up next week. There will be limited admission on busy nights, so make sure to get your tickets early.
