Veteran’s Day often finds itself either neglected or treated controversially (such as the headline regarding those opposing unjust war this year). But at least one Christian school has found a positive was to participate.

Students at Metro Christian Academy in Tulsa, OK presented a program to area veterans called “God Bless America’s Heroes.” Launched by the school following 9/11, their efforts have led to a now 9th annual event to honor America’s military personnel.

The patriotic program extends beyond Veterans Day as well. The students will
also write letters to military people currently on active duty thanking
them for the sacrifices they are making.

Thank you Metro Christian Academy for a great example of faith in action.

See the local Channel 9 video clip of the program here. You’ll be glad you did.
