Happy Independence Day!
As we celebrate the independence of this great nation with our loved ones, please take a moment to reflect on our nation’s history and consider that the greatness of America lies in her people.
In a letter to his wife, Abigail, John Adams expressed his hope that this important day would be remembered by future generations:
“I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.”
In this Spirit, we at the RSLC hope that you have a fun and safe 4th of July.
May God continue to bless America and those who defend her!
Scott S. Ward
President, RSLC
