Fourth of July -‐‑-‐‑ Independence Day Independence Day honors the birthday of the United States of America and the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. It'ʹs a day of picnics and patriotic parades, a night of concerts and fireworks. We hope that you have a blessed and joyful 4th of July with your family and friends and may the inspiring and heartfelt words of Irving Berlin be on our lips this weekend as well: “God bless America. Land that I love. Stand beside her, and guide her, Through the night with the light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the ocean, white
with foam. God bless America! My home, sweet home, God bless America! My home, sweet home.”
