FROM THE EAST
Sisters and Brothers,
We are still here. We would love to welcome visitors as we finish our installation as Rebecca and John advance to the East of Palestine along with the other officers that were unavailable to be installed last month.
Memorial Day is a solemn day to honor our military men and women who have died so that we are able to live free. We thank them for their service. Have a thoughtful day of remembrance as we honor their sacrifice.
Happy Mother’s Day to all our mothers!
In Star Love,
Joan and Steve
