This summer, a number of college students and others will be on mission around the world!

Many college students use their summer break to serve on the mission field for either a week or even a few months. Also...a number of churches will send teams to serve across the state, nation and world on mission during short term mission trips.

Let's be in prayer for all of these going on mission this summer!

Ask around at your church if anyone is going on mission this summer and how you can support them either financially, with needed items to take, or through prayer. Don't know of anyone? Contact the nearest Baptist Collegiate Ministry to you and ask how you can pray for their summer missionaries and teams going out. You can find a list of all BCMs in Tennessee at https://tnbaptist.org/ministries/evangelistic-disciples/collegiate-ministries/locate-a-tennessee-bcm/

Today we pause to remember, to honor and to give thanks for the many men and women that paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Their sacrifice and love for our country will never be forgotten.

Today, we also invite you to join us as we lift up all the Gold Star families to the Lord. Our Gold Star families are those whose father, mother, brother, sister, son, daughter or other loved one died in service to our nation. As the US Army states "The strength of our nation is our Army. The strength of our Army is our Soldiers. The strength of our Soldiers is our families. The Army recognizes that no one has give more for the nation than the families of the fallen."

Gold Star families...we are praying for you and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
