šŗšø As we approach the 250th anniversary of the United States of America, Milestone will be spending the next two weeks celebrating the principles and spirit upon which this great nation was built.
We begin by honoring and thanking the men and women who have served and continue to serve in our military. Your sacrifice, courage, and commitment have helped preserve the freedoms that so many of us enjoy every day.
Today, we wake up with the ability to speak freely, worship freely, pursue our dreams, and build a better life for our families. Around the world, many people do not enjoy these same liberties. We are grateful for those who have stood in the gap to protect them.
As we celebrate our nationās history, let us never take these blessings for granted. Freedom is a gift that has been secured through tremendous sacrifice and is worthy of both gratitude and stewardship.
āFor you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.ā ā Galatians 5:13
Thank you to all who have worn the uniform and defended the freedoms that allow us to live, work, worship, and serve others.
God bless our military service members, their families, and the United States of America. šŗšø
