Today is Memorial Day. However you choose to celebrate in a safe way that cares for the health of both others and yourself, make some time to stop, remember, honor, and reflect in gratitude on those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we have enjoyed, still enjoy, and those we will enjoy in the future. Also make time to pray for God’s continued comfort and peace for the families they left behind, and if you know, or are, a family with a loved who gave their life willingly, please pray for them by name. Please also send us those families’ names so we can all be praying for them, and you, as well. “There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13
