Thanksgiving in Canada is earlier than the U.S., it's the 2nd Monday in October. We had 2 Canadian Thanksgivings this year. The Korean Church that we pray for on Sundays at noon wanted to have their Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday after church. They asked us to bring some Canadian/American food, and they brought some food too. So our team brought turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, pumpkin and pecan pies, rolls, etc. Alot of the Koreans had never had turkey, but they obviously liked it, b/c it was GONE!! They seemed to like everything else too, although the mashed potatoes, and the cool whip for the pies, were hard to eat with chopsticks. For our 2nd Canadian Thanksgiving, we invited people we knew in our community that didn't have family plans. So we ended up with around 29 people in our apt. It was crowded, but FUN!! 5 of those people were here from Mississippi for a missions trip. They helped us make all of those people feel hospitable and cleaned up--they were a ton of help!!
