July 4

Sunday, 28 June 2009 06:20

This week on July 4, we will be celebrating Independence Day. Many men and women have fought for the freedoms we enjoy as we celebrate the 233rd birthday of our nation. Sometimes we get discouraged with some of the things we see happening in our county but we still have many freedoms not experienced in other nations.

Let’s thank God for the privileges and freedoms we have in this country.
Let’s take the time to share with our grandchildren how blest we are to live in America.
Share with them how children in some other countries don’t have the opportunities and freedoms we have in America.
