20072006Topic: Christmas eve picturesI really love the pictures from Christmas Eve. They captured the service so nicely. I missed being there this year and the pictures reminded me of what I missed. lori french <Email Address Not Printed> 01/01/06 13:09 2005Topic: THANK YOU SALEM LUTHERAN CHURCHI just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, for I am so graceful for all your support and kindness to make the Bui family where we got to today after all these years. I am very proud and honor by the dedication of the people there coming together back in the year of 1975 to make our lives possible in an unknown country. As you know it has been 30 years last week mark the fall of Saigon which end the war in Vietnam. The war had taken so many lives and forever changed the lives of so many people and divided a nation and cost a president his legacy. For us we also lost family member and fled our home to the United States. Salem Lutheran Church took us in as if we were your own family. I will never forget the house we stay in next to the church where the pastor used to live there. It just seem so unbelievable that we are living in this beautiful home where is so peaceful and no war to worried. I love walking on those carpets, flushing the toilet, lights that shined when the phone is picked up and so many other things that we are not a accustomed to in this new country. My mother and father as you might know past away a few years ago but I know in their heart they are so very graceful for what the church has done for us. I know this because they would tell me not to forget what the church had done for us when I used to come home on leave from the Army. And believed me, I have not. Since then, I have served this nation for almost twenty years now. I am giving back to this nation and itís people for what was giving to me and my family 30 years ago. From the cold DMZ of Korea to the hot sand of IRAQ I had endured the sweats and the tears from the hardship, separation from family, lost of soldiers I have known and the unknown going into battle which I choose to served for the nation and the people which I believed in. Because of you all, I have a great life now and a family at home in Oklahoma while I am stationed here in Germany. I am here to train our men and women for deployment for the war on terrorism so that we might have peace within the world someday. I just came back from Normandy, France for military studies and to visit Omaha beach and to pay tribute to the men and women whom lost their lives there. This week which also mark 60 years since the surrender of Nazi Germany and end the war in Europe. When I was there looking at thousands crosses in the cemetery near the beaches, I thought how I am so blessed to be alive and free in this great nation of our and is due all because of those mem and woman whom made made the ultimate sacrifice for us. And there for a second, it became clearly to me, that in that new and free nation which I started in, was a house that belong to a church, the Church of Salem Lutheran. In which forever will be part of me. Again, if I may say, thank you for the caring, love and the great deeds of a church had done so much for the Bui family which will never be forgotten and go unnotice. I will prayed for each and everyone of you for love, happiness, and great health for many years to come. May God be with you all and your family until the end now and forever. Sincerely, Wayne Bui and Family. WAYNE BUI <Email Address Not Printed> 05/08/05 10:52 Topic: God bless you Comments: Hi friends... Greetings from Pakistan. I have visited your wonderful website.
