LDS Leader Shares Thanksgiving Traditions, Advice for Teens

Thanksgiving is a holiday that unites all Americans, whether they're expressing gratitude with family and friends or sharing their bounty.

"I love it because I have this vision of hundreds of thousands of families, maybe millions, all over the nation doing the same thing at the same time," Sister Marriott said. "(It's) one day where we come together and recognize there's an abundance in our life and be grateful to God, whatever faith (we) are."
