2010 CALENDAR of EVENTS
Welcome,
So many of us born to this country do not even know that there are certain things expected of us as American citizens, that we have a responsibility to defend this country's constitution and its people. We give the responsibility to our military to take up arms and defend our homeland. When they have given all they can, isn't it then that our responsibilities kick in and we embrace them? Isn't it our job to give them hope and security, the same security that they enlisted to be in harm’s way for us? Our sacrifices in giving them hope and a chance for a promising future is so small in comparison to their sacrifices. It should be so easy for us to care for our Heroes.
If each of us gave a small gesture of kindness to them imagine the difference we could make.
When our wounded say to us "What will I do now?"
Please join us in saying "Take my hand and we will get through this together and give hope to all that need it."
