In the first major battle after the United States declared its independence, the Battle of Long Island in New York in 1776, George Washington encouraged his troops to trust in America’s cause and God’s aid.

President Washington’s vision of Thanksgiving was rooted in giving thanks to God for watching over the country during the revolution and providing us a country of our own. According to mountvernon.org, Washington issued a proclamation on October 3, 1789, designating Thursday, November 26 as a national day of thanks.
