Rally shows appreciation to veterans

A special rally last weekend brought together an assembly of people to welcome and encourage our veterans.

Proclaim Ministries of Branson, founded by Bev and Russ Eugenio, hosted the rally last Saturday. Branson area residents gathered to wave flags and show their appreciation to veterans and their families who were visiting during Branson Veterans Homecoming.

Some shared patriotic music, while others offered words of encouragement to passersby. Many passing by the rally expressed their thanks, verbally, or by the honking of horns, while some stopped to visit with and receive prayer from rally participants.

The rally was held on 76 Country Boulevard, near the intersection of Highway 165.
