Remember:

If you continue in My word, you shall be My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Recall:

If therefore the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.

May we never forget where true freedom is to be found.
May we be thankful for the abundant gifts showered down upon our nation.
May we be steadfast in doing right, and repent of our wrongs.
We ask these graces through our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
