. 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.

Music for a Sunday
God of our Fathers ......A Mighty Fortress
Amazing Grace (Statler Brothers).....Praise Adonai (Steve Israel)
We, at the Canteen, offer these prayers
to those serving their country
today. God Bless you all.
.
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.

DOH! I meant to mention the songs too! I've been listening to "Amazing Grace" over and over. Wow, what a song and I love the Statler Brothers. I also really enjoyed the Celine Dion one. I don't remember hearing it before. Thanks so much Cote! The Canteen keeps getting better and better and yep, I bet the troops enjoy being here. I love Sundays at the Canteen chapel.

Blonde Football
A guy took his blonde girlfriend to a football game for
the first time.
After the game he asked his girlfriend how she liked the
game.
"Oh, I really liked it," she said, "but I just couldn't understand why
they were killing each other for 25 cents."
"What on earth do you mean???"
"Well, I saw them flip a coin and one team got it and then for the rest of
the game all they kept screaming was:
"Get the quarter back! Get the quarter back!"
To: Kathy in Alaska
May I get you anything?
The USO Canteen Greeter deserves a treat.
