The Just Pride

A Post News Article

“Citizens, by birth or choice, of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.”
George Washington,
Farewell Address,
September 17, 1796


Commander’s Message

What we share in this country is a gift beyond measure, with those who protect it; our truest treasure.

“OUR VETERANS”

Veterans; you serve, care, and bleed for freedom’s need.

May we never forget the men and women who gallantly defend our freedom and our way of life. Their valiant service and sacrifice shines with unmatched brilliance. Pray for their safe return, that they may enjoy the life for which they fight.

Thank you Vets; you give the ultimate sacrifice for our country. You leave your families behind when serving, to protect everyone. May your families be shielded in your absence. May you also be shielded; thank you, Vets.

Sincerely,
Kari Witte
Department Commander – Michigan


The Patriot

District News Article

“The patriot, like the Christian, must learn that to bear revilings and persecutions is a part of his duty; and in proportion as the trial is severe, firmness under it becomes more requisite and praiseworthy.”
Thomas Jefferson

“It is in the man of piety and inward principle, that we may expect to find the uncorrupted patriot, the useful citizen, and the invincible soldier. God grant that in America true religion and civil liberty may be inseparable and that the unjust attempts to destroy the one, may in the issue tend to the support and establishment of both.”
John Witherspoon

“You will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve YOUR freedom. I hope you will make a good use of it.”
John Adams
