9/11 Remembrance Day

9/11 Remembrance Day

On this date in 2001, the United States was attacked by terrorists who turned airplanes into weapons. The first two attacks destroyed the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center Complex in New York City. In Washington D.C. the Pentagon building was also targeted and severely damaged. In a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania a fourth attack was thwarted by the passengers who gave their lives to prevent further destruction.

On this day it is right and fitting that we remember the many Americans that died in these attacks and those families that suffered those great losses. We ask that we all observe a moment of silence to honor those who lost their lives in these attacks and those who risked and in many cases sacrificed their own lives to help others.
