May 27, 2018 PENTECOST OBSERVED
Honor, respect, dignity – it’s the minimum debt we owe to those who gave their lives in service to the country. For a moment in time, one day in a year, we pause. We do not cheer the red, white, and blue, and we do not shout our favorite slogan. We paint Memorial Day in more somber tones of grief and gratitude. In our own congregation, we know the grief of loved ones left behind. We remember all who gave their lives, and we know that many were very young – teens or 20s. �ey will not know the joy of longevity we experience, and perhaps we would not know the joy of longevity were it not for their sacri�ce. Honor, respect, dignity. At Arlington National Cemetery, troops from Scouting BSA and infantry divisions of the U.S. Army have decorated 260,000 graves, then for 24 hours they patrol the grounds to make sure no �ag falls. Honor, respect, dignity. At Oak Grove Cemetery, the graves of veterans are decorated. Honor, respect, dignity. During worship Sunday morning, we will remember and o�er honor, respect, and dignity to all, especially to those who died in service in the previous 12 months. �ose names are listed to the right.

Come, ye weary, heavy laden, lost and ruined by the fall; if you tarry ‘till you’re better, you will never come at all. I will arise and go to Jesus; He will embrace me in His arms; in the arms of my dear Savior, oh, there are ten thousand charms.
