Our priest talked about two Thanksgivings that happened long before Plymouth and the Pilgrims.

First, When Columbus landed in the western world the first Thanksgiving was ______________________ fill in rhw blank. There is a word that Catholics use that means ‘thanksgiving.’

When the Spanish explorers settled in Florida many places were given saint’s names — and once again the first Thanksgiving by them was _______________________.

Why aren’t these Catholic truhs broadcast high and low? Probably not politically correct to say that Catholic celebrated the First Thanksgiving with a Mass when Columbus landed on the western hemishpere soil or when the Spanish missionaries settled Florda — the first they that had was a Mass.
