One Nation, Under God

Help heal by listening, prayer

Dear Editor,

On Sunday, September 30, my wife, daughter, and I took part in the Suicide Prevention Walk in Malta. We were greatly encouraged to see the large number of people and young people who were there.

At the gathering at the VFW after the walk, the people who wrote essays were recognized. Dale Brukner spoke. He said there was one word we could all do help prevent suicide and the word is ‘listen.’ Dale shred the importance of being involved in one another’s lives in a caring way.

There is another word we could all do. Suicide is one of the many symptoms that plague our nation. Mass shootings, drug and alcohol addictions are some of the other signs that our nation has turned its back on God. The other word we could all use is ‘pray.’ Our land is desperately I need of healing. God promises to forgive our sins and heal our land if we pray. See 2nd Chronicles 7:14.

Don Voegel,

Malta
