29 May 2017 - A Catholic prayer for Memorial Day

     Today, we remember all the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy and take for granted each day.  We think of how these courageous men and women have followed in the footsteps of your son, our Lord Jesus Christ. We lift up the men and women who are currently serving in the military to your love and mercy.  We ask that you bestow upon them your grace and protection.  We remember the families of the members of the military. We ask for your blessings to fill their homes, that you will strengthen them and keep them safe.   May the members of our armed forces be supplied with courage to face each day.  May they place all of their trust in your divine power to accomplish their work. May our military brothers and sisters feel our love and support.  In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  AMEN.
