A great way to acknowledge our love for and appreciation of our country, as well as the freedoms and liberties we enjoy as its citizens, is to attend an American citizenship ceremony. In Spirit of Service: Your Daily Stimulus for Making a Difference, author Christian Millman suggests attending a citizenship ceremony to build a feeling of connection with your fellow citizens, especially those who differ from you in their first language, ethnicity, and culture.
Find upcoming dates of American citizenship ceremonies in your local paper or county courthouse. Attend the ceremony. If there is an opportunity to do so, stay to meet some of your new fellow Americans. Ask them about their stories — what made them leave their birth country? How did they decide to become citizens?
