Memorial Day can be a difficult time for our military, veterans, and their family. Not only is there the remembrance of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice in service of their country, but there is also the loss of commoradary and friendship associated with being in the service that is provided to many as well the loss of their physical and mental wellbeing after leaving service. Today when we celebrate with picnics and family gatherings, let’s remember them by taking a moment to reflect on the sacrifices that continue to be made. EMPG’s mission is to provide an open space filled with acceptance, warmth, growth, and love for all of those who served and their families. May Memorial Day be filled with thankfulness and hope for the future!
