Prayer List Notice –
If you have someone on the prayer list and their needs have changed, please let
us know. We’d like to update our
prayers to reflect the need and most important to give thanks!
Memorial Day
Memorial Day is a United
States federal holiday which occurs every year on the final Monday of May. Memorial Day is a day of remembering
the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Formerly known as Decoration Day, it
originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union and
Confederate soldiers who died in the Civil War. By the 20th century, Memorial
Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died while in the
military service.
Memorial Day is not to be
confused with Veterans Day; Memorial Day is a day of remembering the men and
women who died while serving, while Veterans Day celebrates the service of all
U. S. military veterans, living or dead.
Please remember in your
prayers all those who have given their lives for our country. The count is high, as is the cost. The cost not only of their lives, but
those of their families’ futures. The real point of Memorial Day is to remember
how much it costs to be free. We
owe those who have given their lives for us an unpayable debt. If we remember that, we may not be in
so much of a hurry to give away our freedom.
Remember that when the
country called only some heard the sound, others closed their ears. Many of those who answered the call
gave all for our country and her freedom.
Remember them.
