Dear God, I pray, in Jesus’ name, for all our troops who serve and put themselves in harm’s way, even when we are not hearing about what they’re doing because something else is taking up all the space in the news. Please bless and strengthen them, help them to act honorably, and also plese bless and strengthen all their family members waiting anxiously at home for their loved one to return from the service. Please keep our troops as safe from casualties and evil ones as you can, and help them put their faith in You when times are difficult. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
St. Joseph, St. Martin, St. Sebastian, and St. Michael, please pray for the troops. Thank you. Amen.
