I have gotten away from doing Holiday messages for some reason - not sure why. We usually do something at the beginning of the service to honor moms or dads or veterans or whomever the special day is designated for. In this case, it was Memorial Day and so we wanted to honor those who have served and are serving in our armed forces.
We began the service with a video, that honors those who have served. A casket was rolled down the center aisle with a flag on it. Some who had been in the military marched down behind and folded the flag before "taps" was played. Then one of those officers had all veterans stand and a prayer of thanks was given. Then they played while we sang: America The Beautiful.
For the message, we continued our series from the gospel of Mark.
