Bulletin for September 13th
“HAPPY GRANDPARENTS DAY!”
We wish to honor all of the Grandparents who are in the services today.
“Thank you” for being our continuing tie to the past, to the events and beliefs and experiences that so strongly affect our lives and the world around us. “Thank you” for also providing our society a link to our national heritage and traditions.
“Thank you” that your values transcend passing fads and pressures, and “thank you” for your wisdom!
We are Blessed!
