Heavenly Father,
Thank You for this day. Guide my steps, give me strength, fill my heart with Your peace, and help me trust You in all things. May Your will be done in my life.
In Jesusโ name, Amen.
The story and celebration of Juneteenth started in Galveston, but its impact is felt far beyond Texas.
Generations of Americans refused to accept that freedom should belong to some and not others. They understood that freedom is something to cherish, and that each generation must continue the fight for justice and equality.
Today, we celebrate all of the joy of Juneteenth. And we recommit ourselves to ensuring the promise of America belongs to all of us.
