Memorial Day

Memorial day for many has turned into a time to have a 3 day weekend, to spend time with family having a picnic in the park, a BBQ in the backyard or a day on the lake. But Memorial Day is a time to reflect on, remember and thank God for the men and women who so bravely, selflessly and courageously gave their lives for our freedoms here in the United States as well as for the freedoms of other in numerous countries around the world.

Here is a video that we played in our services on sunday, I hope you enjoy it. I think it will challenge us all to examine what it means to be a Christ follower and what it means to be an American. They can both go hand in hand. As a matter of fact one of the mottos that used to be spken throughout the military was always God and country. So with the thought I hope you enjoyed a great weekend and took a moment to pause and remember so many great lives that ended so quickly for the great cause of freedom.
