July 4th 2017

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."


-The Declaration of Independence
July 4, 1776

"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery"
Galatians 5:1



"For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. 
Rather, serve one another in love.
Galatians 5:13

"Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand 
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!"
Francis Scott Key 1814

We owe so much to the brave men and women who have served brothers and sisters in love..so that we may enjoy freedom and continue the call to serve. Happy Independence Day!
