Remembering Our Veterans
Posted by TulipGirl | Under Around the World Tuesday Nov 11, 2008Remembering. . . with thanks. . .
When I was a child we sang Eternal Father, Strong to Save nearly every Sunday, right before the benediction. Sailors and marines, seabees and the occasional army soldier — these were the brothers and sisters in the Lord in our local community. So even now, when I go to pray for those who are serving our country or who have served, that hymn is the first prayer that comes to mind.
Thank you, to all who have served, are currently serving — or are sacrificing as your loved ones are serving our country in the military.
Thanks for the tribute and the prayers. My husband is a veteran — still active duty and serving in S.Korea for a year — so we appreciate the recognition and the prayers. Thanks.
