Colony Care at Home

Today, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to this country.

Originally known as “Decoration Day,” this observance began in the years following the American Civil War, when communities across the nation gathered to decorate the graves of fallen soldiers with flowers. What started as a local act of remembrance became a national day of reflection — formally recognized as Memorial Day in 1971.

But beyond its history, Memorial Day is a living reminder.

It calls us to remember not only the sacrifice, but the humanity behind it — the lives, the families, the stories, and the futures that were given in the name of freedom.

As Maya Angelou so powerfully reminded us, “How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes.”

In honoring those who have fallen, we are also called to live with intention — to build a world rooted in dignity, compassion, and unity.

Because remembrance is not passive. It is something we carry forward.

🇺🇸 Today, we remember. Always, we honor.
