We Salute Our Veterans

On Veteran's Day, we call veterans and thank them for serving. The truck below reminds us of all that so many men and women have done to keep America safe, and to keep America free. To those who have saluted the flag of the United States of America so many times, we salute you.



How many families have immigrated to this great country that our veterans served to protect? Many first generation Americans have escaped circumstances in which death was everywhere, and visibly so. For each of their lives, we praise God and thank our veterans.

There is a boy whose family came to America from a country then ravaged by war. At one point, his parents were thinking about aborting him. Somebody cared enough about them, and about him, to tell them the whole truth, the things that they would never have heard at an abortion clinic. When they were shocked to realize that they had considered ending the life of their son, did they realize that America is only a safehaven for those who have already been born?

To the veterans who've served, thank you.

To the immigrants who have sought peace and safety for their family and their descendants, an apology is in order. An apology spoken is that, and little more; an apology in deed is an apology indeed. Please know that many Americans pray that the United States Supreme Court will make that apology in a single action, by overturning Roe v. Wade.
