21 Dear Lord, Today we honor our veterans, worthy men and women who gave their best when they were called upon to serve and protect their country. We pray that you will bless them, Lord, for their unselfish service in the continual struggle to preserve our freedoms, our safety, and our country s heritage, for all of us. Bless them abundantly for the hardships they faced, for the sacrifices they made, and for their many different contributions to America s victories over tyranny and oppression. We respect them, we thank them, we honor them, we are proud of them, and we pray that you will watch over these special people and bless them with peace and happiness. In Jesus name we pray, Amen. By Joanna Fuchs "PEACE I leave with you, my peace I give you, not as the world gives do I give to you, let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." -JOHN 14:27 21

22 To those waiting to come home I walk a road less traveled towards a path I cannot see It has led me to this valley that now lies in front of me As I walk into the valley I've come to a fork in the road I stand silently before it, not knowing which way to go I know I'm not to worry; yet each morning I'm awake As I wrestle with decisions on which road I must take There is a way seems right to man, that is not my choice I'm standing at the fork, oh Lord, waiting for Your voice This journey is not clear to me; I do not understand This was not of my choosing; this is not what I'd planned Which way do I turn, oh Lord, which way do I go? I am standing in the valley; Your will I wish to know I walk a road less traveled towards a path I cannot see It has led me to this valley that now lies in front of me Light my path and calm my fears, for I do not understand Yet the deeper in the valley, the more I grip Your hand Written by SLM You are continually in our prayers. 22
