Memorial Day 2024 – Special Feature – 5/27/24

Family Life has a special program for Memorial Day:

  • Emphasis on tributes of deceased military heroes (even more than a day off of work/school, and retail sales specials)
  • “Taps” and flag-folding rituals at military funerals
  • The history and significance of a National Cemetery
  • How Memorial Day can affect veterans who lost friends and colleagues in wartime and during deployments
  • A local pastor and a V-A chaplain reflect on the spiritual opportunities as we grieve and remember loved ones

Join Greg Gillispie and Bob Price at noon on Monday, as we tour Pennsylvania and New York for perspectives on Memorial Day.

 

(This Family Life News Special is also available on our podcast feeds, the Family Life Now mobile app, and you can download or share it from FamilyLife.org)

Hometown Heroes – Remembering our heroic war dead – 5/21/24

Remembering the Heroes from Hometowns in the Family Life region

As we approach Memorial Day, this Family Life News Feature takes you to the Veterans Administration National Cemetery at Bath, New York.

You will hear the stories of the war dead who were laid to rest there, many dating back to America’s Civil War.

Our story-telling guide for this radio-tour is Dan Miller, a volunteer at the museum at the National Cemetery.  Miller himself is a decorated war veteran who served as a Navy medic during the Vietnam War.
