Month: July 2022

The 2022 summer song camp schedule has been announced. This summer song camp will be held from August 8th to 19th, excluding weekends and Sundays.

The song camp schedule will be delivered to Jubilee School graduates and current students for two days today and tomorrow, and applications for participation are accepted until August 5.

Many gracious songs have been made over the years through Song Camp. Now, a foothold in another dimension of music mission is being built. A good example is the Worship Album Project, which is being conducted jointly by the Chapel Worship Band, the School, and the Jubilee Church Worship Band.

We hope that great quality Christian songs will be created through this song camp as well.

The 2022 Summer quarter started with orientation on 5th July.

Although the number of subjects and students in the summer quarter is relatively small compared to other quarters, it is held with various events every year, showing more exciting activities than any other quarter.

As of this year, the summer song camp will be held during the summer quarter. In addition, various evangelistic activities of the Chapel Worship Band are also planned, raising expectations for the activity.

Summer heat is getting warmer. However, Jubilee School’s heat of praise will swallow up all that heat.

The Fourth of July—also known as Independence Day or July 4th—has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941, but the tradition of Independence Day celebrations goes back to the 18th century and the American Revolution. On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later delegates from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. From 1776 to the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth of American independence, with festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues. The Fourth of July 2022 is on Monday, July 4, 2022.

History of Independence Day
When the initial battles in the Revolutionary War broke out in April 1775, few colonists desired complete independence from Great Britain, and those who did were considered radical.

By the middle of the following year, however, many more colonists had come to favor independence, thanks to growing hostility against Britain and the spread of revolutionary sentiments such as those expressed in the bestselling pamphlet “Common Sense,” published by Thomas Paine in early 1776.

On June 7, when the Continental Congress met at the Pennsylvania State House (later Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, the Virginia delegate Richard Henry Lee introduced a motion calling for the colonies’ independence.

Amid heated debate, Congress postponed the vote on Lee’s resolution, but appointed a five-man committee—including Thomas Jefferson of Virginia, John Adams of Massachusetts, Roger Sherman of Connecticut, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania and Robert R. Livingston of New York—to draft a formal statement justifying the break with Great Britain.

On July 2nd, the Continental Congress voted in favor of Lee’s resolution for independence in a near-unanimous vote (the New York delegation abstained, but later voted affirmatively). On that day, John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail that July 2 “will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival” and that the celebration should include “Pomp and Parade…Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other.”

On July 4th, the Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence, which had been written largely by Jefferson. Though the vote for actual independence took place on July 2nd, from then on the 4th became the day that was celebrated as the birth of American independence.
