The armistice between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed thereafter that November 11 be observed as &#8220;Armistice Day.&#8221;&nbsp; In 1954, Congress passed legislation that&nbsp; renamed the federal holiday &#8220;Veterans Day,&#8221; in recognition of the service of veterans of all U.S. Wars. It is important to remember and reflect on those who have served and continue to serve in defense of the freedoms we enjoy today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"container\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div id=\"content\" class=\"small-12 large-8 columns border\">\n<article id=\"post-9265\" class=\"post-9265 page type-page status-publish has-post-thumbnail hentry\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><strong>A Prayer for Veterans<br>\n<\/strong><em>Help us, dear God, to see your face in every Veteran we encounter.<br>\nGuide us as we imagine new ways to support Veterans and their families.<br>\nBring healing and peace to all who have been wounded physically, mentally and spiritually during wartime.<br>\nHelp us bring your saving grace to heal the invisible wounds of war.<br>\nWe ask this in Jesus\u2019 holy name.
