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.

The Words of President George W Bush
in an Inspiring Song by Russ Lee

Don't miss this, it will give you chills.

I'm Going To Live What I Believe

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.

Never under estimate the effect YOU have on the Canteen.
Your understanding of what the Canteen is all about
and your love of the military and vets comes from your heart and soul.
Thank You

Howdy! I hope everybody's had a good day. I haven't meant to be rude by not showing up today. I've just not been very up-beat and didn't want to spoil the party.

Hopefully Mail Call will cheer me up a bit tomorrow. I LOVE Mail Call!!!!

I wanted to pop in to say "Hello" to all you Canteeners and to our wonderful troops lurking out there. (hand waving at everybody) I'm heading back out to my workshop to work on these glass thingys I'm trying to finish. I'll see y'all tomorrow.

Luv ya! ((HUGS))

LOL! There is no way I could remember much of history or anything for that matter. I read sweetie, I know that the Flintstones were based on them. I have seen the reruns just a few years ago. And I didn't like them that much.
