We Will Never Forget

Fourteen years have passed since the events of September 11, 2001. Our world was forever changed that day. We will never forget.

We will never forget the senseless loss of innocent lives on that day.

We will never forget the families who lost loved ones to the acts of terror that day.

We will never forget the courageous and selfless actions of countless first-responders who saved the lives of others while showing little regard for their own lives.

We will never forget the countless acts of love and mercy shown by countless numbers of people in the aftermath of the 9/11 tragedy.

We will never forget the character of a nation that refused to be defeated by the cowardly acts of terrorists.

We will never forget the men and women who have stepped in the path of terrorism and served honorably in our military and worked tirelessly to make our country safer.

We will never forget that freedom is a precious privilege and a great responsibility.

We will never forget that God has a remedy for terrorists and all other sinners. It is His grace made possible through the loving sacrifice of His Son. He remains our only true hope and the true Answer for what is so broken in our world.

We will never forget the darkness of that day - September 11, 2001.

We will never forget the light of the Gospel that shines forth today and brings healing to the broken, hope to the hopeless, freedom to the captives and light in the darkness.

We will never forget.
