​This month's July cover celebrates the 250th Birthday of America! The 4th of July, also known as Independence Day, is a national holiday in the United States that celebrates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. It marks the day the 13 original colonies declared their independence from Great Britain. Our country is like a family: Everyone has to pitch in or it doesn't work. As members of the U.S. "family" — in other words, as citizens — we all have certain responsibilities, like going to school, voting, and obeying the law. Let us pray for our country that has always been great and that we continue to enjoy the celebrations and the summer days with no worries. With that, I wish us a Happy Birthday America, feliz cumpleaños América!
