I recently received the following email from my friend, Brian Schuliger.  Would you consider the Schuligers in your thoughts and prayers?

He Wrote...

This year the Schuligers lived what we are all taught from a young age - but sometimes take for granted and forget - that is… What is most important during the holiday season. In fact, it is what is most important every hour of every day of every week of every year: family, friends, and…
