FROM THE PASTOR
WE HONOR OUR VETERANS On Veterans Day we honor men and women who have served and sacrificed in one of Americas armed services. The holiday is also meant to highlight Americas quest for world peace and our nations desire for justice and freedom throughout the worldour nations highest goals Veterans Day is actually rooted in Armistice Day. On November 11, 1918, America and her allies met with German leaders to sign a truce ending World War I. In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson decided that our nation should remember with gratitude the end of the war and honor those who served in the military. He called the holiday, Armistice Day. Armistice means truce. In his proclamation the president wrote that Armistice Day is an opportunity given to America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations. The name Armistice Day was kept until 1954 when Congress changed the name to Veterans Day honoring veterans of every era. President Eisenhower called on all citizens to observe the day remembering the sacrifices of veterans and the task of promoting and enduring peace. *Roger ____________ COMING SOON Nov 11 VETERANS DAY th Nov 11 SINGING OVER HOME BOYS 6:00 P.M. th Nov 20 COMMUNITY THANKSGIVING SERVICE -7:00 P.M.

Trouble may demolish a mans business but build up his character. The blow at the outward man may be the greatest blessing to the inner man. If God, then, puts or permits anything hard in our lives, be sure that the real peril, the real trouble, is that we shall lose if we flinch or rebel.

The vague and tenuous hope that God is too kind to punish the ungodly has become a deadly opiate for the consciences of millions.
