SAR asking churches to participate in Allegiance Sunday

The George Washington Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution are asking churches, synagogues and spiritual organizations to take part in Allegiance Sunday by repeating the Pledge of Allegiance or singing a patriotic hymn together. Allegiance Sunday is a day of personal feeling and expression to reaffirm love of country and to demonstrate allegiance. Since Independence Day falls on Wednesday, July 4, the Sunday before or after would be appropriate to celebrate Allegiance Sunday. This is a national project of the Sons of the American Revolution. Churches that participate are asked to send a copy of their bulletin from that Sunday to Sons of the American Revolution-George Washington Chapter, c/o Gary Timmons, 13 Elm Lane, Wheeling, W.Va. 26003. After they are tabulated, a report will be sent to the National Society.
