As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation
is not to utter words, but to live by them.

A Letter Of Protection

To be carried in a pocket. In the name of God the Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost: As Christ stopped at the Mount of Olives, all guns shall stop. Whoever carries this letter with him he shall not be damaged through the enemy’s guns or weapons. God will give him strength; he may not fear robbers and murders, nor guns, pistols, swords, and muskets shall not hurt him through the command of the Archangel Michael, in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost, God with me. Whoever has this letter shall not be taken prisoner, nor wounded by...

To Come Home To Yourself

May all that is unforgiven in you Be released. May your fears yield Their deepest tranquilities. May all that is unlived in you Blossom into a future Graced with love. (John O’Donohue)

Prayer For Soldiers, Sailors, And Aviators

O God, we beseech thee, watch over those exposed to the horror of war, and the dangers of a soldier’s, sailor’s or aviator’s life. Give them such a strong faith that no human threat may ever force them to deny it or fear to practice it. Do, by your grace, fortify them against the contagion of bad example, that being preserved from vice and serving you faithfully, they may be ready to meet death whenever it may happen. O Mary, Mother of God, be with them on the battlefield and shield them. Saint Joseph, pray for them....

A Soldier’s Prayer

Brave warriors, should fate find us in battle, may our cause be just. May our leaders have clear vision. May our courage not falter. May we be triumphant and earn victory as we show mercy to our enemies. May our efforts bring lasting peace. May our sacrifice be always appreciated by those we serve. May we return to our loved ones unharmed. Should we be harmed, may our wounds heal. Should we perish in the struggle, May God embrace us and find for us a place in his Kingdom....

A Prayer For Victims Of PTSD

Father, You have the power to transform my mind, and I receive your healing power today.  I take your Word as the absolute Truth.  You are counseling me now and looking directly into my eyes.  My eyes of faith see and receive the love that your eyes are communicating.

Franklin Roosevelt’s D-Day Prayer

They Fight To End Conquest My Fellow Americans: Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our Allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation.  It has come to pass with success thus far. And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in  prayer: Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity....

When The Men Go Off To War

What happens when they leave is that the houses fold up like paper dolls, the children roll up their socks and sweaters and tuck the dogs into little black suitcases. Across the street the trees are unrooting, the mailboxes rising up like dandelion stems, and eventually we too float off, the houses tucked neatly inside our purses, and the children tumbling gleefully after us, and beneath us the base has disappeared, the rows of pink houses all the way to the ocean—gone, and the whole city has slipped off the white earth like a table being...
