RESEPCT LIFE CORNER
Veteran’s Day; Each year on November 11, we observe Veterans Day
and remember all those who have served our country in times of war. Among those veterans are our military chaplains. Five military chaplains, all of them Catholics, have received the Medal of Honor since the Civil War. Two of them are on the path to sainthood as their stories of bravery have touched people
the world over. Their example inspires a new generation of men to be
chaplains as well. Learn. Act. Connect. Pray: Take time today to reach
out and thank any Veterans that you may have in your life. Ask them about their service and listen to their stories. Remember the men and women that have chosen to serve our country during times of war in prayer. Here is a prayer for deceased Veterans; O God, by whose mercy the faithful departed
find rest, look kindly on your departed veterans who gave their lives in the service of their country. Grant that through the passion, death, and resurrection of your Son they may share in the joy of your heavenly kingdom and rejoice in you with your saints forever. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
