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

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your father in heaven.
