"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."

When you receive this, please stop for a moment
and say a prayer for our troops
(land, air, and sea)
in Afghanistan, Kuwait, Iraq, and around the world.
