Veteran's Day - Remembering our Heroes

 Veteran's Day is a day to remember the great service and sacrifice made by every soldier who has serviced in the Armed Forces of our great Country.  Thank You, Veterans!  Thank you for keeping us safe and free.

I want to send a special thanks, not just to our Veterans, but to all soldiers who are currently serving, and to every family who has loved and supported their soldier and has sacrificed precious time with their loved one. To you all, we owe a debt that we cannot repay.  May God bless you with His richest and best blessings!

On special holidays, our local Rotarians get up early to erect flags in front of every participating home in Terrell. When I look out my front window and see the flags waving all throughout our neighborhood, it never fails to move me.  I'm so thankful to live in Country where I'm free to worship God without fear.  Thank you, honored Veterans, and all who are currently protecting our freedom.

Dear Lord, Today we honor our veterans, worthy men and women
who gave their best when they were called upon to serve and protect their country.
We pray that you will bless them, Lord, for their unselfish service in the continual struggle
to preserve our freedoms, our safety, and our country’s heritage, for all of us.
Bless them abundantly for the hardships they faced, for the sacrifices they made
for their many different contributions to America’s victories over tyranny and oppression.
We respect them, we thank them, we honor them, we are proud of them,
and we pray that you will watch over these special people and bless them
with peace and happiness. 
In Jesus’ name we pray; Amen.
