Published 6:06 pm Monday, September 12, 2011
Reverend Jane Jenkins led the service as our Landrum United Methodist remembered 9/11/01.
Although all of our lives, our country, our freedom and our world were irrevocably changed forever,Rev. Jenkins reminded us that God never changes.
God’s love, grace and forgiveness endure forever. God expects us to forgive even the terrorists who committed, to many of us, unforgivable acts.
Biblical passages were read from Genesis 50:15-21 and Matthew 18:21-35 for illustration of forgiveness.
The congregation appreciates Danny Morgan and The New Prospect Fire Department for bringing their fire-truck and John Mullen who represented Rescue 11 of Landrum with their Rescue 11 vehicle.
The Landrum High School Army JROTC also presented the United States and Christian flags under the direction of Curtis Tate.
May we all continue to pray for our nation.
