People are seen arriving at the church before the service. After the pilgrims left England to escape the established Anglican Church and before they landed on Plymouth Rock, they arrived in Leiden, The Netherlands where they lived for 11 years. Thanksgiving holds a special significance for the Dutch and every year in Leiden, the annual Thanksgiving Day Service at the historic Pieterskerk in Leiden is a celebration of the history of the pilgrims and their connection to Holland. The pilgrims recorded their births, marriages, and deaths in the Pieterskerk, and lived in the surrounding neighbourhoods during their time in Leiden. The non-denominational service combines a civil ceremony with a Service of Thanksgiving. This year, US Ambassador, the Honorable Razdan Duggal delivers the President�s annual Thanksgiving Day Proclamation. (Photo by Ana Fernandez / SOPA Images/Sipa USA)
