TRUMAN — Sunday is the Fourth of July. So, as we celebrate our nation’s independence, lets thank those who have served and sacrificed for our nation and, second, lets respect one another. We won’t always agree, but we can always approach our differences with open minds and the willingness to listen to our fellow Americans.

Truman City Hall will be closed Monday because of Independence Day.

Trinity Lutheran Church invites all senior citizens to gather at 8:30 a.m. every Tuesday for coffee, rolls, and friendship.
