CATHOLIC VETERANS OF WAR
Our Veterans make a sacrifice for the sake of others - "No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends" John 15:13. We are grateful for those whose lives are spared and returned to us. We are humbled by those, in spite of permanent disability, continue to love and serve the community. We urge everyone to lend support to our brave Veterans in any way needed whether it be financial or spiritual - these men are men of Christ and deserve our unconditional support.
Always Remember
In Remembrance There are fields where poppies bloom this time of year. There are acres where flags flutter in the breeze. There are plots of land studded with the rows of stone upon stone carved with the names of the fallen and the rank they wore on the uniform that was theirs. Even as the numbers of those who have served in one war fade away, they are replenished by those who have served in a new one. Those who survive take the place of those who have gone, and remember the service rendered by the dead. The graves are hallowed by the blood of heroes, and decorated by the survivors of wars now ended. We gather in remembrance, knowing that the service we give to fallen heroes is memorial to their love of freedom and ultimate sacrifice for us.
