May 5th is National Day of Prayer

Thursday, May 5th is National Day of Prayer! The theme for 2016 is "Wake up America". This day is for all who believe in a divine creator, regardless of the name that creator goes by. We need guidance in this life and turning to a loving creator for that guidance is by far the best thing for all of us. May God always be a significant part of this great country! And may we all enjoy forever the freedom to worship our creator as that creator would want us to! God bless America!

Greenery Day in Japan

Today, May 4th is greenery Day in Japan. There is an interesting story behind this at this site. This is based on an Emperor Showa who died in 1989 and loved nature. He was the first to be known as a human who was Emperor while the previous Emperors were regarded as divine. Midori no hi is the Japanese name for this Day. May we all cherish the love of nature!
