They call this the “Remembrance Ring” program. The “Remembrance Ring” provides American military families the opportunity to extend holiday greetings and thanks to service members and veterans through Wreaths Across America Radio. Wreaths Across America Radio is a stream you can listen to anywhere, 24/7 at www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/radio, and via the iHeart Radio app, or download it at the App Store or on Google. (hashtag #WreathsRadio.) Last year the program connected many families from all over the globe. Be sure to email your friends and loved ones and let them know about this program. “The United States currently has 1.3 million active-duty members, reservists and guards serving within our borders and abroad. Additionally, more than 24 million veterans have faithfully served our country in the past,” said Karen Worcester, Wreaths Across America Executive Director. “I am honored and thrilled to be able to offer these soldiers and their families the opportunity to share their Holiday greeting. The Remembrance Ring is a wonderful gift to give and is especially important for sharing love and support for their sacrifices at this special time of the year.” Anyone can participate by calling (888) 348-3352 to record a short holiday greeting. WAAR will play that message on-air during the holidays to help bring families, loved ones, members of our military, and American’s closer together for the holiday season. These special messages will be broadcast between November 22nd and December 31st. See WAAR pg. 9 RAMBLINGS From pg. 1 been down and out for a bit with a broken knee and have had help from so many of my dear friends, church family, and of course my own family. I can’t wait until I am fully functional again so I can pay it back to those that have gone out of their way to lend a helping hand, even if it was a text to see how I was doing, or a kind note left at my door. Showing your gratitude, or how much you care for someone, does not have to involve moving a mountain. It can be that simple gesture. It can be a simple, “Hi! I hope you are doing okay today!” Those small and simple things can bring a smile to anyone’s face. My heart was instantly feeling with love and gratitude anytime someone reached out to me this last month. I invite you to share what you are thankful for and let those around you know why you are thankful for them. Call someone you haven’t talked to in a while and ask them how they are. Send someone a card to let them know you are thinking of them. What are you doing for Thanksgiving? What are you doing this month? Is your park doing something special for an organization or for your park for Thanksgiving, or Christmas? If you are, we would like to know. We would like photos and to know what you are doing to help those around you. This is the time that many parks get their residents together to help the children in the area, a local school, the food bank, and other organizations. If you are one of these, we would like to show our readers what you are doing. If you need help, or want to put a call out for jackets, canned food, toys – send that as well. We will pass it along one way or another. If you are getting together for a big feast…. Those pictures are welcome as well. We like to see y’all getting together again and spreading your joy. Please send any news items and photos to news@wintertexantimes. com. Let us know a contact person and phone number if we need to ask more details.
