Dear Friends, Hope all is well
Happy 4th of July!
I remind all of us to take a moment on The 4th of July to remember Independence Day and what it means – Freedom, Democracy, Hope. On this special day we thank our Lord, Who created all people equal and for granting us with exceptional liberty in our beloved country, the United States of America. Please say a Prayer and Thank God for the Blessings we have in this Great Land of America. Let us recommit ourselves to service to our Country. Let us recommit to more Community Service, Interfaith Collaboration, and Civic Engagement.
My Family and I will be in a 4th of July Parade in Purcellville, VA. My Boys will be a part of the Boy Scouts of America Honor Guard with the US Flag and we will also be on the Purcellville Rotary Club Float.
