We shall never forget!  How could any American?  7 years ago today was THE defining moment of my lifetime.  The sad memories are as alive now as they were at this moment 7 years ago.  Such tragedy, such a waste of valuable lives, but also such incredible bravery.  If you need a place to remember, here is a partial listing of events in the area today.  Pray for those who have fallen, our heroes, survivors and God bless our troops!

I’ll be off for a week and return here next Wed.  Please don’t ever forget how our world changed on September 11th, 2001.  God bless our heroes and troops.
