Remembering our Veterans and Current Military Men and Women

Captain Moroni and the TITLE OF LIBERTY

One of my absolute favorite lines in the scriptures was

declared by Captain Moroni:

"In memory of our God, our religion,

and freedom, and our peace,

our wives, and our children!"

We have fought for our "RIGHT to CHOOSE"

long before we came here...

Many a man/woman pledged their

"Sacred Honor"

like our Founding Fathers when they declared their

their "Independence":

"...and for the support of this Declaration,

with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence,

we mutually pledge to each other

OUR LIVES, OUR FORTUNES, and our

SACRED HONOR."

Declaration of Independence

4 July 1776

However, FREEDOM, unfortunately, comes with a price and often, the choicest blood from each generation...is given...

In Declaring our Independence

John Adams had this to say:

I am well aware of the toil and blood and treasure it will cost us to maintain this declaration, and support and defend these states. Yet through all the gloom I see the rays of ravishing light and glory. I can see that the end is worth all the means. This is our day of deliverance. --- John Adams (1735–1826)

This Nation's DIVINE MANDATE:

“America was discovered, colonized, and made into a great nation so that the Lord would have a proper place both to restore the gospel and from which to send it forth to all other nations. As a prelude to his coming, and so the promised work of restoration would roll forward, the foundations of the American nation were laid. --- Bruce R. McConkie

The spirit of patriotism were often engulfed in songs like this:

"Over There" - Written by: George M. Cohan

"Over There" - Yankee Doodle Dandy

THANK YOU to all those family members who

sacrificed TIME with their loved ones...
