Memorial Day 2024 – America Remembers
Once again, the last Monday of May is upon us. For many it is a long weekend for camping, parties, lots of sales, and even Memorial Day cruises. There are many reasons why this day is notable.
But let’s not forget the real reason – the important reason. It was set aside to remember and honor all those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the military service of America . . . Those who died fighting to preserve our lives and our freedom. They won’t be here to celebrate with us because they gave up everything for us.
So, amidst our celebrations, let’s pause and take time to remember the thousands of men and women whose lives were cut short so that we could live and be with those we love to enjoy our freedoms. God help us to remember the cost of our blessings and to remain worthy of that cost.
“Our debt to the heroic men and valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid. They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices. Four things support the world: the learning of the wise, the justice of the great, the prayers of the good, and the valor of the brave.”

May God Bless All of America’s Veterans!
Thank you for your sacrifice, you gave your strength, your youth and time.
You did a job not many will. You deserved our respect and you do still.
Though you didn’t give your life, you were a willing soul.
Only your brothers in combat, your suffering truly know.
We love that you are here with us and honor who you are.
A grateful nation appreciates every single scar
That wrote upon the slate of you, though you were very brave.
You came back to us a hero, you are not the same.
For you have learned to bear the weight of defending freedom’s call.
But you did come back, and that is what we give thanks for most of all.
We honor you on Veteran’s Day. Thank you for your service!!!
