The Government of Sint Marten in collaboration with the St. Maarten Christian Council, St. Maarten United Ministerial Foundation and the Seventh Day Adventist Church held the 26th Annual Service

Thanksgiving on St. Maarten is a call for all residents in the community to come together, to give God thanks on the first Sunday in December for all his blessings and protection marking the end of the annual Atlantic hurricane season that runs from June 1st – November 30th. Twenty six years ago, following the decision of the then Executive Council on December 1st 1999, the first public Thanksgiving Service was held on December 5th, 1999.

This year’s Thanksgiving Service featured songs of praise, prayers of thanksgiving and much more.
