Remembering Our Fallen Heroes- Memorial Day 2026

Remembering Our Fallen Heroes- Memorial Day 2026
​ Christ was made an offering for sin, the sin of the whole world, but He willingly went to the Cross as a freewill offering of love for his friends who are His Body, the Church. And Christ loved and cherished the Church so dearly that He gave Himself for it: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down His life for His friends."
 As there are many that they lay down their lives for the Freedoms we have in the United States Of America. We honor our God today and every day we have been gifted here on earth and honor those that made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom to worship our Lord. While we enjoy a day with our families and friends, let us all never forget who we are  and share our love with those in need and are mourning.
 We are to abide in the Lord, reflect His love, and to love others in the same way that He loved us. It is only as we experience a deepening love for Jesus and all that He has done for us, that we can begin to allow His love to flow into us and through us to others. And then, in His power and strength, we too may lay down our lives in service to Him as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, in Jesus' name.
John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the greatest of all examples of love that Christ demonstrated toward us on the cross and those that sacrificed their lives for our freedoms, in that while we were still sinners, He died for us as did many soldiers. He has called us to be members of His Church and to love others as He has loved us. May we love and comfort others in His strength and power, to Your praise and glory. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN.
