Happy Memorial Day!


How are you spending today? We don't have any plans, but some yard work and remembering those that gave the ultimate sacrifice. 

Every Sunday at church all the military flags (also the POW flag) are walked to the platform and our Pastor reads off the names of the those that died the past week and then prays for those families. Did you know that several died last week and that we still have 1 missing in action? I love this because not only does it still make it real for the adults as a constant reminder that the war is still going on and the sacrifice being made, but also for our children. The boys now salute the flag when they see it and it means something to them.

Remember those  and their families that made the ultimate sacrifice for us!
