The Fourth of July
After John Adams signed the Declaration of Independence in July of 1776, he said, "It will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to Almighty God. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this country to the other, from this time forward, forever."
In the spirit of John Adams and our other Founding Fathers, we will, this weekend, thank God and celebrate all of the wonderful freedoms that have come from our Creator and have been preserved by the wisdom of our Founding Fathers through our Constitution.
As the parades pass, the flags wave, and the fireworks explode into the sky in our communities, let us be thankful and vigilant. The freedom we experience today has been brought to us by the commitment of our forefathers. Let us be true to the next generation.
