Presidential Documents Vol 57663 Federal Register Presidential Documents Vol. 85, No. 179 Tuesday, September 15, 2020 Title 3— Proclamation 10070 of September 3, 2020 The President National Days of Prayer and Remembrance, 2020 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation During these National Days of Prayer and Remembrance, we pay tribute to the nearly 3,000 precious lives lost on September 11, 2001. We solemnly honor them and pray that those who bear the burdens of unimaginable loss find comfort in knowing that God is close to the brokenhearted and that He provides abiding peace. The memories of that fateful morning still touch American hearts and remind us of our Nation’s reliance on Almighty God. When cowardly terrorists attacked our homeland, we witnessed the unthinkable as each successive plane struck the very heart of our Nation. As the Twin Towers fell and the Pentagon was hit, the peace and calm in the lives of innocent families were shattered. Our Nation watched in shock as courageous first responders faced great peril to save the lives of their fellow Americans. Onboard United Flight 93, a group of heroic individuals braced themselves to stop hijackers from hitting our Nation’s Capital. Passenger Todd Beamer told Lisa Jefferson, a call center supervisor in Chicago who stayed on the phone with him until the end, that he would ‘‘go out on faith’’ and asked her to recite the Lord’s Prayer with him over the phone, beginning: ‘‘Our Father, who art in heaven.’’ Despite immeasurable loss, we were not defeated. Our Nation’s darkest hour was pierced by candlelight, our anguish was met with prayer, and our grief was met with unity. Like so many times before in our country’s history, we sought peace and strength through faith. Today, at Ground Zero in New York City, the ‘‘Survivor Tree’’ stands as an enduring symbol of our faith and national restoration. As it blooms with the seasons and reminds us of its triumph over destruction, we remem- ber the words of John 1:5: ‘‘The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.’’ In the nearly two decades that have passed since this tragedy, our Nation has grown stronger and more resilient. As one country, we honor all of the mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters who perished on that day. They are forever remembered. On these National Days of Prayer and Remembrance, we pray for the families of all those who were lost and honor the courageous heroes who came through for our Nation when we needed them most. Together, as one Nation under God, we renew our vow to never forget. We cherish each other as fellow Americans and look proudly to our flag—an unwavering reminder of freedom’s triumph over fear. And, above all, we thank God for the strength and courage He has provided us, and take heart that our beloved departed now rest in His loving embrace. NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Friday, September 4, through Sunday, September 6, 2020, as National Days of Prayer and Remembrance. I call upon the people of the United States to observe these National Days of Prayer and Remembrance with appropriate programs, cere- monies, and activities.

  • Appendices 1 – 12
    APPENDICES 1 – 12 Religion Course of Study PreK-12 --- Diocese of Toledo --- 2018 Appendix 1: God’s Plan of Salvation -- A Summary (Used with permission, Diocese of Green Bay, WI) It is very important that before we dive into the religion Course of Study each year, we set the stage with an overview of God’s plan of salvation – the adventurous story of God’s unfailing love for us, his persistence in drawing us back to himself, and the characters along the way who succeed and fail in their quest for holiness. The context of the Story of Salvation will provide the proper foundation for the rest of your catechetical instruction. The Story can be taught as a one-day lesson, or a week long lesson. Each teacher must make a determination of how long they will take to present the Story to their students. It is important that the story be presented so that each of us can understand our place and purpose in the larger plan of God, as well as how the Church is central to God’s plan of salvation for the world. An overview of God’s plan is to be presented at the beginning of each year, and should be revisited periodically during the year as the subject matter or liturgical season warrants. Please make the presentation appropriate to the grade level. 1. God is a communion of Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. The three Persons in one God is the Blessed Trinity. God has no beginning and no end.

For those of us who grew up in the Disney era, we have been trained to watch out for good and evil, with the belief that the heroes will come to save us. Despite anything that happens, we always know that the heroes will always win, and the villain will fail. However, a story does not seem to be complete without the villains. If the heroes do not have any villain to fight, then how do we define their acts as being heroic? Villains provide a conflict that intrigues the audience as well as readers because it gives the heroes conflict and something to look forward to. Without the conflict of the villains, there will be not much to the backstory of the heroes. Therefore, villains are a great addition to the success of a piece of work.

  • We Belong to Him Galatians 4; Ephesians 1-2
    Brian Fisher Grace Bible Church We Belong to Him Galatians 4; Ephesians 1-2 God our Father turned His face away from the Only Begotten, so that we, children of sin, wrath and death, could be adopted into the family of God. Praise God! We belong to Him! Need for belonging • Ladies, there are other ways that you experienced rejection or belonging growing up, but for guys it was choosing teams on the playground. • Stressful time. Reoccurred every day. o Established your value as a human being for that day o Asked my kids; who would you pick? Depends on the contest? Math, science, history, soccer, basketball? Always pick those who can perform the best. Depending on how badly you want to win, you might even skip over your friends. Playground is a cutthroat world! • We all want to belong. We all need to belong. And we want to know that there is a valuable contribution we can make. The most fundamental way that God has revealed Himself is as a Trinity: Father, Son and Spirit, enjoying one another, loving one another for all of eternity. Creating in order to share that love, to invite us into that love at the initiation of the Father. What does a great father do? A great father creates a great family. In a great family... • You belong (group).

  • On Eagles Wings
    The Cadet Command (ROTC) Patch The Cadet Command Shield symbolizes the Army mission of National Defense and is divided into quarters representing the four traditional Military Science Courses comprising the Senior ROTC curriculum. The Sword signifies courage, gallantry, and self – sacrifice intrinsic to the profession of arms. The Lamp denotes the pursuit of knowledge, higher learning and the partnership of Army ROTC with American colleges and universities. The Greek Helmet is symbolic of the ancient civilization concept of the Warrior Scholar. The motto “Leadership Excellence” expresses the ultimate responsibility of Army ROTC in the discharge of its moral responsibility to the Nation. The Golden Eagle Battalion conducts a Patching Ceremony, during which incoming Cadets receive their ROTC patch. Cadets who receive their patch during this ceremony must have first completed their Warrior Scholar List. The Warrior Scholar List is comprised of various tasks and information that Cadets must learn and complete in order to seek out and gain an understanding of basic army knowledge and an appreciation of the foundation of the Golden Eagle Battalion. 3 Battalion Crest This crest of the Army ROTC Battalion at Marquette University was authorized 9 September 1963.

A few years ago I was telling a friend about my Wonder Woman experience and she told another friend and the two of them purchased a Wonder Woman keychain for me. When they were presenting me with the keychain, my friend said, “We think you are Wonder Woman!” At that moment, I felt an electrical zing move from the top of my head down to my feet and I felt this impression on my heart and mind, “You got to be her. You got to be Wonder Woman.” My immediate reaction to this impression was, “No I haven’t! I haven’t saved anyone from a burning building or stopped a speeding train!” As I continued to process the impression I received, however, I began to realize what heroes really do… they help people.
