Verse of the week
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord thoughts of peace and no of evil, to give you a future and a hope, Jeremiah 29:11 What an amazing promise that is, and in todays world to know He wants to give us peace and hope and keep us from evil sure is reassuring!!
Memorial Garden
We will be placing a veterans and first repsonders memorial garden in the front yard where the flag pole is, we are selling memorial bricks to go in the garden, these bricks will have your loved ones name and service dates on them, all money collected from the bricks goes directly to the garden, the stone has been ordered and will be here soon, we are hoping and placed, it is beautiful and is an honor to each branch of the military as well as first repsonders. The bricks are $100 or you can donate any amount of money you would like to this cause, just write in the memo if you are writing a check "memorial garden" or if you are putting cash in an envelope please do the same thing, if giving online please write in the notes, that you are purchasing a brick for the memorial with the persons first and last name, branch of the military or police, fire, ems, etc and dates. same for other we need that information. We at Red Level honor and love our service men and women past, present, and future.
This is what the bricks will look like
