As Veterans Day approaches, we pause to give thanks to those who have sacrificed their time and sometimes their lives to keep us all free.
While our country has certainly had its dark times, we still remain the world’s beacon for freedom and opportunity. This is demonstrated by the fact that it is the one place most of today’s oppressed people come. We must never forget those who have given their time and their life to protect what we have here in this country.
In an effort to honor and recognize the sacrifices given by serving in the United States of America’s military, the Ellendale United Methodist Church invites all military to a free lunch at the church (200 6th St., Ellendale) on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2019 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Family and friends are also invited as service to God and country is recognized.
