There is cause for us to unite in what is right and stop the wrong that is going on in our nation. We need to look to the history of our nation and how and why it was started.

We must put forward an effort to learn and know just what is really going on in our nation and our state at this point in history.

This election will be a game-changer for our country and the world. We must know the truth of each party platform of those running for election for local and national offices. We must not vote for personalities but look to what is right for our society and our nation.

We need to stop fear and start doing something to make a difference. I want to encourage all who know how to reach out to others of all faiths to pray for changes in our country and in our understanding. We need to vote in this election with understanding and a love for our country. Some have tried to take prayer out of our nation and our schools. As someone else said, as long as there are tests in school, there will be prayer. This nation has been given some big tests lately and we need to come together in unity and pray as individuals and as communities.

Everyone, every life and every person matters, and we need to use that fact to make a difference while we still can, by caring for others and uniting in agreement and prayer.
