Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight; I will put my Spirit on him and he will bring justice to the nations. He will not shout or cry out, or raise his voice in the streets. A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice. (Isaiah 42:1-3)

Holy Father, we come to You again. Hear us, Lord, as we pray.
Father, we pray on behalf of all our troops, at home and abroad. We ask You to watch over them and all that concerns them. Give rest to their hearts, Lord, and keep them safe.
We pray particularly for the men and women who are serving overseas during the holiday season. Father, we ask that You would console them as they are apart from their families during this special time, and give each one many blessed Christmases in future years. Father, nothing can take away the joy of Your Son's coming to us; help our soldiers to have that joy this Christmas.
Lord, we pray for Your people, as throughout the world we prepare to celebrate Your birth. May this be a time of gladness for ushappiness in all You have given us, and in Jesus most of all.
Father, we praise You for the faithfulness of Your promises, for the justice You bring and the kindness You show. You who are humble and gentle at heart, who would not break a bruised reed or snuff out a smoldering wickto You the weary can come. We give You our humblest thanksgiving, in the Name of Jesus, Amen.

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!
Prayer of St. Ignatius
Teach us, good Lord, to serve Thee as Thou deservest; To give and not to count the cost; to toil And not to seek for rest; to labor and not to ask For any reward, save that of knowing that we do Thy will Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
St. Ignatius Loyola, Patron Saint of Soldiers

Father, we praise You for the faithfulness of Your promises, for the justice You bring and the kindness You show. You who are humble and gentle at heart, who would not break a bruised reed or snuff out a smoldering wick—to You the weary can come. We give You our humblest thanksgiving, in the Name of Jesus, Amen.
Amen, and Amen; your Words So Beautifully Describe the Loving Heart of our King. Thank you, and Thanksgiving to our Christ, for this Worship-Filled Place.
