Veteran’s Day 2020
Veteran’s Day has been set aside to honor the men and women who serve us and our country.
There are many events locally and nationally in which we can participate, in person or on television.
“Honoring the sacrifices many have made for our country in the name of freedom and democracy is the very foundation of Veteran’s Day.” ~Charles B. Rangel
“True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.” ~Arthur Ashe
“But this Veteran’s Day, I believe we should do more than sing the praises of the bravery and patriotism that our veterans have embodied in the past. We should take this opportunity to re-evaluate how we are treating our veterans in the present.” ~Nick Lampson
I invite you on Wednesday to join in the celebration: a moment of silence honoring our veterans is a powerful prayer.
