Bishop Tobin on a Spirit of Thanksgiving in Times of Suffering

“Can we still be thankful when we suffer?

“That’s the question I’ve been pondering as Thanksgiving approaches this year. In particular, I have in mind those good folks in our state and nation whose celebration of the holiday might be strained this year because they’re dealing with personal problems, economic woes and natural disasters.”

In a recent commentary, Bishop Thomas J. Tobin, of the Diocese of Providence (RI), reflected on having a spirit of thanksgiving in times of suffering.
