On May 5, 1961, Alan Shepard became the first American in space. While his suborbital flight lasted only a little over 15 minutes, the launch paved the way for the future of the U.S. space program. 🔗 https://t.co/YrwC7ZR67m

[American Battlefield Trust @Battlefields]

The site of a 1775 battle and a critical outpost for the British after they captured Charleston in 1780, the colonial town of Ninety Six was also the setting of a 28-day siege in 1781, which started #OnThisDay May 22, 1781. Here, Nathanael Greene’s Patriots attacked the heart of Loyalist commander John Cruger’s defenses — the Star Fort.

“He is not here; He has risen, just as He said.” – Matthew 28:6

Easter is our reminder that hope isn’t dead. No matter what you’re facing, the tomb is still empty. And that changes everything.

Because He lives, you can face tomorrow. You can lead your family well. You can leave a legacy that matters.

From the Ramsey family to yours, Happy Easter!
