Happy 4th of July from all of Team ST!

As fireworks light up the night sky this Fourth of July, we are reminded of the immense blessings we have as Americans. Our country was founded on principles of freedom, faith, and the pursuit of happiness. This Independence Day, let us take a moment to reflect on the ways God has blessed our nation and why we should remain thankful for the privileges we enjoy, recognizing that our rights as Americans come not from man, but from our Creator.

As we gather with family and friends to celebrate our independence, let us remember to give thanks for the countless blessings God has bestowed upon us. May we never take for granted the privileges we enjoy, and may we always strive to be a people who seek God's wisdom in all that we do. Independence Day is a reminder of the birth of a nation, but it is also a time to reflect on the strength, courage, and sacrifice that have preserved that freedom through generations. We are able to enjoy fireworks, barbecues, and time with loved ones today because countless men and women have answered the call to defend this great land. We thank God for the blessings of liberty and for the brave souls in our armed forces—past and present—who have stood in harm’s way so that we might live in peace.

As we head into the holiday weekend, we hope it's filled with laughter, celebration, and time well spent with family and friends. Please remember to stay safe and take care of one another.

God bless America!
