			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All around the world people celebrate <strong>harvest and thanksgiving festivals</strong>.  The UK has their Harvest Festival.  Canada has Thanksgiving, as does the USA.  Many other countries have celebrations of thanksgiving for harvest in general, or for specific main crops.</p>
<p>Since I report on blogs, I&#8217;m always a little behind (many of these were celebrated between September and November), but I finally decided to share with you some of the best blog entries on these harvest and thanksgiving celebrations from this season.</p>
<ul>
<li>Many people had lists of things they were thankful for.  Here&#8217;s one from <strong>The Rothchilds Blog</strong> (Nigeria) &#8211; <a onclick="window.location.href='http://www.missionary-blogs.com/cgi-bin/counter.pl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.therothchilds.org%2Fblog%2Farchives%2F2005%2F11%2F24%2Fthanksgiving%2F&amp;referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.missionary-blogs.com%2F200512.html'; return false;" href="http://www.therothchilds.org/blog/archives/2005/11/24/thanksgiving/">Thanksgiving</a></li>

<li>In Thailand, the Akha tribe celebrates a harvest festival.  Read all about it in <strong>The Vernon Journal</strong> entry, <a onclick="window.location.href='http://www.missionary-blogs.com/cgi-bin/counter.pl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fvernonjournal.blogspot.com%2F2005%2F12%2Fturkey-day-eleventh-month.html&amp;referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.missionary-blogs.com%2F200512.html'; return false;" href="http://vernonjournal.blogspot.com/2005/12/turkey-day-eleventh-month.html">Turkey Day &amp; the Eleventh Month</a></li>
