ALMIGHTY FATHER, THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THE OPPORTUNITY TO

GATHER ONCE AGAIN AS A ONE FAMILY. PLEASE ENDOW OUR BELOVED

VISITOR, MAJ GEN ALLEN P PAREDES, WITH YOUR MANTLE OF ENDLESS LOVE
AND PROTECTION. AND AS WE CONDUCT OUR SIMPLE GATHERING, ENABLE
US TO REDEDICATE OURSELVES TO THE HERITAGE AND PRINCIPLES THAT
HAVE MADE OUR NATION GREAT. KEEP US EVER ALERT AND READY TO SEIZE
THE OPPORTUNITIES OF TODAY AND GIVE US THE ABILITY TO TAKE A HARD
LOOK AT THE FUTURE AND A WILLINGNESS TO ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE OF
TOMORROW. WE PRAY FOR THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO CONSTITUTE THE
FABRIC OF OUR MILITARY STRENGTH ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ARE EXPOSED
TO DANGER AND PERIL IN THE DEFENSE OF OUR NATION THAT THEY MAY
SERVE WITHOUT REPROACH. AND IN THESE TIMES OF UNCERTAINTY AND
FEAR, MAY WE REMAIN STEADFAST AND UNFAZED AS VANGUARDS OF
COURAGE, INTEGRITY AND LOYALTY IN THE HOPES OF MAKING A PEACEFUL
COUNTRY. AMEN.

Support them in the day of battle, and in the times of rest and training keep them safe
from all evil; endue them with courage and loyalty; and grant that in all things they may
serve without reproach.

In these times of uncertainty and fear that have seemingly taken over our country, we
have remained steadfast and unfazed amidst all the challenges. As a united nation,
what we can do is to set aside our political differences, forget our academic and social
preferences, and let love and loyalty for our country rise above all. So we can march
towards our future in the hopes of making a peaceful country.

ALMIGHTY MERCIFUL GOD OUR FATHER, STRETCH FORTH, WE PRAY THEE TO

STRENGTHEN AND PROTECT ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE ARMED
FORCES OF THE PHILIPPINES ESPECIALLY THE AIRMEN OF OUR COUNTRY.
ENDOWED WITH YOUR MIGHTY SPIRIT OUR BELOVED VISITOR TODAY, MAJ
GEN ALLEN P PAREDES.

towards our future in the hopes of making a peaceful country.

Enable us to rededicate ourselves to the heritage and principles that have made our
nation great. Keep us ever alert and ready to seize the opportunities of today and give
us the ability to take a hard look at the future and a willingness to accept the challenge
of tomorrow. We pray for the men and women who constitute the fabric or our military
strength. We would especially remember those who are exposed to danger and peril in
the defense of our nation, those who are prisoners of war or missing in action and their
families, who wait in loneliness and sadness of heart

Support them in the day of battle, and in the times of rest and training keep them safe
from all evil; endue them with courage and loyalty; and grant that in all things they may
serve without reproach.

Amen.

Our Lord of hosts, in whom our fathers trusted; we give thanks for all men and women,
citizens of the United States of America, who have and are serving the Armed Forces of
our land. In time of peace, each stands as a promise of peace; in time of disaster or
conflict, each stands as our nation’s willingness to support, defend and bequeath their
lives for this freedom. May our tribute to each of these citizens and service members
imitate our support to all nations whose love is for peace. God, support our
Commander-in-Chief and military leaders that our sacred trusts in our Armed Forces be
echoed “In God We Trust.” Amen.
May the Lord God of Hosts be mighty in his blessings of us and our country. May he
challenge our minds with memories of the valiant patriots who have gone before us.
May he inspire our wills with steadfast courage to follow the good paths where they
have led. And may he strengthen our hearts with determination that we never falter in
the honored service of our country and in faithful worship of our God. Amen.

Heavenly Father, I commend to thy gracious care and keeping all the men and women
in our Armed Forces at home and abroad. Defend them day by day with thy heavenly
grace; strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the
perils that beset them and help them to know that no one can pluck out of thy hand
those who put their trust in thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

O Lord God of Hosts, stretch forth, I pray thee, thine almighty arm to strengthen and
protect the airmen of our country. Support them in the day of battle, and in the times of
rest and training keep them safe from all evil; endue them with courage and loyalty; and
grant that in all things they may serve without reproach through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
