Patriot Motto:

“I love the Lord my God with all of my heart and my neighbor as myself.”

The Liberty Bell

Ding! Ding! Dong! Let freedom ring!

The Liberty Bell was ringing in the year 1776. The day was July 8th. It was hot outside because it was summertime in Pennsylvania! The Liberty Bell was ringing because it was a special day.

“Hey, what’s happening?” Asked Brayden, “Why do we hear the bell ringing? It’s not even Sunday!”

“It must be a special occasion!” Replied Selah.

“Well, you are right about that!” Answered Blaze. “Letts hurry down to the State House to see what’s happening there!”

The Liberty Bell was proudly announcing the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. The United States was going to be free to be one nation under God. That meant that the King of England could not make the rules.

Yeah! Yeah! Hip – hip hooray! Hey Patriots, guess what it says on the Liberty Bell! The Liberty Bell has a Bible verse on it that says, “Proclaim Liberty throughout all the land…”
