Washington National Cathedral's Veterans Initiative
This week, the nation will honor our veterans, and Washington
National Cathedral is proud to release three short "Honoring Our
Veterans" videos that can assist churches and other worshipping
communities on starting the conversation with those who have served.
You can find the videos on the cathedral's YouTube channel here.
Bishop Jay Magness reflects on Veterans Day
"On this Veterans Day 2015, unlike some of my friends in the faith community, I am not all that interested in what we can do for service members and veterans. I am, however, very interested in what these persons can do for the faith communities of America. Service members and veterans, if given the appropriate recognition, honor, welcome, and permission can teach us so very much about the spiritual value of personal and corporate sacrifice."

Bishop Magness is Bishop Suffragan, Federal Ministries of The Episcopal Church. He was formerly Canon to the Ordinary in the Diocese of Southern Virginia.
