Happy Veterans Day to all our comrades! Today, we salute the courage, sacrifice, and dedication of every individual who has served our great nation. Your unwavering commitment to protecting our freedoms deserves a standing ovation. Thank you for your service! 

As veterans, we carry a unique perspective on the value of service. While our mission in uniform may have ended, our responsibility to uplift and strengthen our communities continues. Let’s embrace a new call to action:

• Find a need and fill it.
• Find a hurt and heal it.
• Find a problem and solve it.

This guiding principle, inspired by Matthew 25:31-46, reminds us of the importance of compassion, service, and action. Whether it’s feeding the hungry, helping a neighbor in need, or lending a listening ear, there are countless ways we can make a difference.

So, forward march, troops! Let’s take the skills, discipline, and heart we developed during our service and channel them into building stronger, more caring communities. Together, we can embody the belief that teamwork makes God’s dream work.

As we honor Veterans Day, let it also be a day of action—a day to recommit ourselves to serving others. The mission isn’t over; it’s just begun. Let’s move forward with love, faith, and purpose.

To all veterans: we see you, we honor you, and we’re marching with you. Thank you for being an inspiration to us all.
