text: Today, we bow our heads in solemn remembrance of the victims lost in the terror attacks on this country on September 11, 2001 and in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. We reflect with gratitude on all of the men and women who have bravely fought to defend us from anyone seeking to harm the United States and her citizens, and we pray for all those still fighting.  On this somber day in our nationÛªs history, we stand united as Americans and steadfast in our resolve to ensure that our sacred ideals of freedom, justice and peace continue to shine as a beacon of hope for future generations around the world, despite the many challenges that exist.  May God continue to bless the United States of America!
