Pastoral Care for Military Families

[RCCAtl]

Resources that will help our churches provide pastoral care to returning veterans and families of persons serving in the military. Almighty God, we comment to your gracious care and keeping all the men and women of our armed forces at home and abroad. Defend them day by day with your heavenly grace; strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ, our merciful and righteous Judge. Amen Book of Common Prayer
