Fourth of July Message

Every Fourth of July is filled with festivities. From fireworks and baseball games to parades and picnics, we have a list of favorite activities that help us celebrate our independence in the United States. Many of you will say that sending patriotic greeting cards has been added to the ways you personally celebrate this holiday.

Marvin Desselle recently wrote us and shared a heartfelt story we just had to share:

“I recently met a man who lost his home to a flood in his area. He felt down on his luck and was somewhat troubled. Eventually I went on my way but not before learning we were both war veterans.

Later that day, I had a strong prompting to send him a card, which I did. About a week later, I received a call from him where he told me, in part, ‘You’re the first person since my return from Vietnam, over thirty years ago, that has ever taken time to thank me for my service there. You have touched this old man’s heart. Thank you and God bless.’ I was deeply moved to know a single card could mean so much.”

This story not only reminds us how important it is to reach out to those who have served in the armed forces, but to show others how much it means to us to be free people, no matter where you live.

This is just one of many stories of card senders changing the world, thanks to all your efforts and heartfelt cards. Enjoy the upcoming holiday festivities!
