The United States of America was formed by the courageous immigrants of yesterday, whose culture, hard work, and determination helped to shape the country it is today. Their spirit continues to inspire the future and push the country toward a strong tomorrow.
In 1800s, where our story begins, there is still a continual influx of immigrants to North American from Europe. Many seek to find new lives in the United States and Canada. However, the move is not easy for many families. Instead, life throws many challenges in their path, forcing them to continually persevere and overcome even the greatest obstacles.
Determined to succeed, they fight through tears and sweat and are guided by three core values to make North America their home: reverence for God, respect for life, and honor to do what is right.
