Stop for a moment and say a Prayer for our troops around the world.

Of all the gifts you could give a US Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine &others

deployed in harm's way, Prayer is the very best one!

"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they

protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they

perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our

Lord and Savior. Amen."
