TRUSSVILLE — Trussville City Schools are participating in Gov. Kay Ivey’s Ribbon of Hope Campaign, showing support for first responders, medical personnel and community members.
Ivey is asking the people of Alabama to tie ribbons around trees or poles as a reminder to pray for others during the coronavirus pandemic.
Governor Ivey was joined by several local pastors to officially tie the first “Ribbon of Hope” on a tree in front of the Alabama State Capitol.
“As an effort to remind the people of Alabama we are all in this together, I ask that each household tie a ribbon in their front yard to remember our medical personnel, first responders and for the health and protection of our family and friends,” Ivey said. “Let’s use whatever ribbon we already have from a past celebration and may we see a beautiful array of color line our neighborhood streets. These ribbons will serve as a reminder to the people of our state that we are lifting each other in prayer, and that just like after the great flood in Genesis, we are mindful of the hope and promise of God during this pandemic.”
