Veterans Day Recognition 2024

SALEM HONORS VETERANS

In 2012 Salem Church started a second Veteran’s Recognition Plaque to complement the one established in the 1950s. This was done because Salem Methodist Church of Zionsville respectfully continues to honor member veterans as well as veteran friends of Salem. It is thanks to our Veterans that we in the United States continue to remain free and are able to freely worship per our U. S. Constitution.
