REST IN PEACE, FALLEN SISTER!

Ormester Orsolya Roth, Hungarian Army, 5 István Bocskai Dandar (Brigade), Magyar Honvédség, KIA Afghanistan 17MAY2011

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

God Of Our Fathers



Rest in Peace, fallen Sister, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen Sister, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen Sister, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen Sister, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen Sister, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen Sister, rest in eternal peace!

The Church Phone......

 

A man in Topeka, Kansas decided to write a book  about churches around the country. He started by  flying  to San Francisco and started working east from there. Going  to a very large church, he began taking photographs and making notes. He spotted a golden telephone on the vestibule wall and was intrigued with a sign, which read “Calls:  $10,000 a minute.”  
Seeking out the pastor he asked about the phone and the sign. The pastor answered that this golden  phone is, in fact, a direct line to heaven and if he pays  the price he can talk directly to GOD,
 
The man thanked the pastor and continued on his way.  As he continued to visit churches in Seattle, Denver (Mississippi of course), St. Louis, Chicago ,Milwaukee, and many cities and towns all  around the United States, he found more phones, with the  same sign, and the same answer from each pastor.
 
Finally, he arrived in Ft Worth, upon entering a church in the beautiful state of Texas behold… he saw the usual golden telephone. But THIS time, the sign read “Calls: 35 cents”.
 
Fascinated, he asked to talk to the pastor, “Reverend, I have been in cities all across the country and in each church I have found this golden telephone and have been told it is a direct line to Heaven and that I could talk  to GOD, but in the other churches the cost was $10,000 a  minute.
 
Your sign reads only 35 cents a call. Why?”
 
I love this part .....
 
The pastor, smiling broadly, replied,
 ”Son, you’re in TEXAS now - you’re in God’s Country. It’s a local call.”
 
American by Birth - TEXAN by the Grace of  God.
 
And why do TEXANS go barefoot?
When you’re in TEXAS, you’re on Holy ground!
