Independence Day

Happy Independence Day!

As we celebrate the 235th birthday of our great country, and exercise the freedoms we enjoy, you may be interested in knowing more about the religious heritage of our nation. I think you will enjoy this exhibit from the Library of Congress. Please click on the following website, enjoy, and be thankful. . . . http://lcweb.loc.gov/exhibits/religion/religion.html

I recommend it highly for your reading as you contemplate the state of the country now as compared to how the founding fathers embraced their faith and incorporated it into our government and culture. Today, it seems that every religious expression is under attack by someone or some group. I believe a better understanding of how religion was viewed by our founders will help us know how to join the fight to preserve our precious religious freedoms.

Dotse and I wish for you and your family a most enjoyable and safe Independence Day! May God bless you and your loved ones.

Love, Jerry & Dotse
