Our Creator Has Given us Many Blessings on the 4th of July
The Vanguard would like to wish everyone a very Happy 4th of July as time is spent with family, friends and neighbors in the Falls and surronding areas.
As you attend your local parade, please remember that it is still ok in America, in spite of what some might be suggesting today, to stand in respect as the American Flag goes by. You may even encourage those around you to take their hats off, say a short silent prayer of thanks, to hold their hand over their heart and to remember that your ancestors and veterans gave us the many privileges and blessings that we enjoy today as citizens of the greatest country in the world, America.
The Vanguard has made available copies or links to some of the most sacred and tested documents in history for you to consider as you observe this authentic holiday that we have simply come to call, The 4th of July.
