Among the hidden gems of history is the Tri-Cities Historic Museum in Grand Haven.

As part of our WCSG’s Travelin’ Together series, we will explore the museum, which is hosting a special ceremony for Veterans this weekend. The museum houses two floors of exhibits, including an old-time soda fountain, trading post and frontier cabin. The museum also houses a collection of over 70-thousand artifacts, collected from the region.

This weekend, the museum is hosting a special ceremony recognizing 17 Grand Haven area soldiers from WWI eligible to receive a purple heart, for sustaining wounds during combat operations. The ceremony begins at 1:30 and requires an RSVP. For more information, visit Tri-Cities Museum.

Encouraging Words From Your Bible

For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.
