The amazing colors we have been experiencing announce the changing seasons and the approach of Veteran's Day. Veteran's Day, celebrating the end of World War I, offers us the opportunity to honor all those who have served our country in peace and war and to thank them for their sacrifice. This year you will have the opportunity to send messages of love and hope to servicemen and women who are close to our Mountain View community. Beginning October 26th, in the Narthex, there will be cards for you to sign as well as info on how to write a brief, personal note. If your kids would like, we also invite them to draw pictures. Then, on Sunday, November 9th, during each of the services, we will bless these messages before sending them to those who are serving now. Also, during those services, we will be recognizing and honoring all who have served our country. Help us to bring our support to people who are serving our country.
