BOR RAMBO



Hi!  I'm Bob Rambo, Lead Pastor at Central United Methodist Church.



Next Monday is Memorial Day.  It's the “unofficial” beginning of summer.  But more than that, Memorial Day is a day to remember those who have given their lives in defense of this

country.  We pause on Memorial Day to express our gratitude to those who “gave all”, who made the costliest sacrifice so we might be free.



Every year as Memorial Day approaches, I also think of Jesus.  Jesus came to show us how to live, and he gave up his own life to help reconnect a wayward world to God.  And because

Jesus “gave all”, we are free to experience a different kind of life - a life of forgiveness, compassion, and justice.



On Memorial Day, amidst the cookouts and the ballgames, let's not forget those who gave their all for us.



And let's give thanks to Jesus, who made the ultimate sacrifice on the cross for us.



Make it a GREAT day!
