Two Teen-agers View My Responsibility As An American - Herbert W Armstrong - November 1976

Herbert W Armstrong

As we Americans prepare to celebrate our Bicentennial Thanksgiving holiday, the abundant blessings and priceless privileges we all enjoy should be especially appreciated. Yet with privileges come responsibilities. Last summer, The Plain Truth sponsored a Bicentennial essay contest for the teen-age members of Youth Opportunities United, a nationwide youth group. The teen-agers were asked to write 500 words or less on the subject "My Responsibility as an American." Many well-written essays were submitted, but the judges eventually selected winners from each of two age brackets: 12-15 and 16-19. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
