COMMANDAR COMMENTS


Comrades, In case you haven’t noticed, it’s Spring! You can tell by the flowers blooming, weeds popping up, and the grass needing a haircut. The To-Do lists come out and now it’s time to cleanup and start getting ready for the big summer ahead. We are looking good at the post and invite you to come out and see us.

The start of vacation and holidays are cropping up as well. Memorial Day will be here soon. We still live in a place where heroes are among us. While these brave souls and our Comrades have passed in service, let’s remember on Memorial Day that we had the privilege of existing on the same plane as them, even if it was only for a moment. I want us in our day to day lives to take Memorial Day and remember those who have gone on and their sacrifices as well as our comrades around us. Thank you All for your service and a privilege to walk along super people.

Monthly dinners are doing well. They are open meal to our local area. So, invite a friend or neighbor to join us. Comrades, check out the calendar, come out and enjoy a cold one, or take a chance and play one of our raffles or the gaming machines Support your Post and our events.

We will be holding elections May 21st. All officers is required to attend this meeting.

Membership is moving, but we need help in recruiting or getting members current. If you know fellow veteran and meets the criteria, talk to them and invite them to join.

Any questions or concerns about the Post, come to me and we will see what can be done.

CHAPLAINS REPORT 


Greetings Again Everyone,

               Because of the full bloom of nature, May is frequently associated with growth, beauty, and rebirth. This time of year, encourages contemplation of God’s abundance and provision. While June marks the transition from spring into the warmth and fullness of summer, a season of growth, renewal, and reflection.

               As May unfolds, it encourages believers to celebrate the present and find contentment in our daily lives. By focusing on the good rather than worldly distractions, we cultivate a mindset of praise and positivity. This mindset transforms ordinary days into extraordinary opportunities. May can bring both opportunities and challenges. But it teaches us strength, courage, and perseverance. Our belief in something greater than ourselves can help sustain us and embolden us through challenges.

               In June, whether you celebrate victories, or seek guidance when facing fears and feelings of inadequacy. The divine assures him that His power will compensate for human weakness. Divine guidance equips us to fulfill our calling, even when we doubt our abilities. When facing challenges, uncertainties, or demanding tasks, trusting in prayer provides confidence that gives us strength enables us to endure and succeed. Trusting in the divine plan allows us to act with confidence. His strength enables our speech, decisions, and actions.

               May God bless you and strengthen you in your daily lives.
