The Canteen Chapel

Although we are always aware
that the Canteen is operating
in Cyberspace, we want the troops
and anyone who is on the receiving end
of prayers at the Canteen,
to know that these prayers are very real.

I hope the troops and Canteeners
alike, will view this Canteen Chapel,
as a place where you might go in times of
trouble or times of joy to be with your God.

"Come unto me all ye who are weary and
burdened,and I shall give you rest." (Matt: 11:28).

George W. Bush: A President of Faith

A Man of Prayer

A reporter on CNN was asked

"What did George W. Bush do
on his first morning as president-elect?"

This was Tony Clark's answer:

"He attended a prayer service with family,
friends and staff members."

George W Bush's priorities were established
on the first day of his Presidency.

The President Takes His Faith to Work

President George W. Bush looks over to Thomas Martello, 6,
during the signing ceremony of the Victims of Terrorism
Tax Relief Act in the East Room Jan. 23.
"We're joined today by families who have lost loved ones
in the great acts of evil," said the President.
"As you draw on faith and personal strength to cope with your grief,
I hope you'll also find comfort in the knowledge that
your nation stands with you and prays for you.
We mourn those whom we've lost, and we face the future together."

The President Lives his Faith

President Bush says he prays every day
in all kinds of situations,
and has been seen to quietly bow his head and pray
before news conferences and important meetings.
"I pray for guidance. I do not pray for earthly things
but for heavenly things, for wisdom
and patience and understanding."

"For strength and support, Bush turns to
the same things that have sustained
him for two decades: his faith and his family . . .
Bush prays and reads the Bible every day.
These days, aides say, they often spot
a Bible on his desk in the Oval Office.
In conversation or meetings, he often refers to
passages of Scripture that he has just read."

"There are prayers that help us last
through the day, or endure the night.
There are prayers of friends and strangers
that give us strength for the journey.
And there are prayers that yield
our will to a will greater than our own."

George W. Bush September 14, 2001
National Day of Prayer and Remembrance.

Psalm 59:1,16&17
(Patti Vaillant)

"Deliver me from mine enemies,O my God:
Defend me from them that rise up against me.
But I will sing of thy power;yes I will sing
aloud of thy mercy in the morning; for thou
hast been my defence and refuge in the day
of my trouble. Unto thee, O my strength will
I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of 
my mercy."

Our Prayer
(Celine Dion/Andrea Bocelli)

I pray you'll be our eyes, 
And watch us where we go.
And help us to be wise 
In times when we don't know.

Let this be our prayer, 
When we lose our way.
Lead us to a place, 
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe. 

I pray we'll find your light,
And hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night,
Remind us where you are.. 

Let this be our prayer
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace 
Give us faith so we'll be safe.

We ask that life be kind
And watch us from above.
We hope each soul will find
Another soul to love.

Let this be our prayer,
Just like every child,
Needs to find a place, 
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe.

Glad you liked the picture Radix. :) Hope you'll be around on the 12th of October. It should be fun. It's always good to see you here. You're coming right along on your HTML talents. ((((hugs))))

[Radix]

Hey Spookie,

Want to know a good day in the life of a Radix?


That would be The Dolphins losing, The Drew Bledsoe led Buffalo Bills winning, and the Patriots about to kick off in ten minutes or so.


Now that is a good day!


We shall see what happens!

[Radix]

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention concerning the blue eyed blonde beer bearing Babe. She had nice big boobs too!


I`ll see you after the Patriots Game.


Pop Quiz concerning the NFL.

What team owns the longest current winning streak?


Give up?


They will be playing the Chargers in 5 minutes from this post.

A U.S. soldier stands guard in front of a C-130 Hercules aircraft after French and U.S. air forces flew out some 200 refugees from Korhogo to Yamoussoukro airport in the Ivory Coast, September 29, 2002. French and U.S. troops started evacuating foreigners by air on Sunday from a town in the northern Ivory Coast, still held by rebels after an 11-day uprising. Hundreds of people have been killed and thousands have fled their homes since a failed coup attempt turned into a wider conflict that has left swathes of the northern Ivory Coast in the hands of rebels.

Anyone,

Someone answer me quick so I can win a million dollars...

What's the official name of the Language school out in California? Is it in Monterey? Is it the Defense Language Institute? It's where my dad went to learn Russian and I need to know right away. It's very important.

Sorry I'm so stupid. I did a google search but I just want to make sure I'm right by asking the "experts".

[SAMWolf]

During World War II, Presidio was home to Nisei (Japanese-American) soldiers training at the Military Intelligence Service Language School, which was the precursor of the current Defense Language School in Monterey, California

Juniata was placed out of service at Treasure Island, San Francisco, 1 January 1945, returned to the Maritime Commission, and sold to a private owner in June 1945.

Bless This House hummed along with this morning, twice because I love this song for our USO Canteen, and Prayer of Protection said for all who enter the USO Canteen Freeper Style, including our troops, our veterans, their families and our allies. Welcome to all who come to honor our troops, for whom this USO Canteen was created.

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you

The love of God enfold you

The power of God protect you

The presence of God watch over you

Wherever you are, God is,

And all is well.

Amen.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thank you all for the additions of music and prayers for our troops and our President. God bless President Bush and all our troops, veterans, their families, and all of our allies.
