I am an American Soldier. I am a Warrior and a member of a team. I serve the people of the United States and live the Soldiers Values. I will always place the mission first. I will never accept defeat. I will never quit. I will never leave a fallen comrade. I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained and proficient in my warrior tasks and drills. I always maintain my arms, my equipment and myself. I am an expert and I am a professional. I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy the enemies of the United States of America in close combat. I am a guardian of freedom and the American way of life. I am an American Soldier.


(If you would like to light a candle for your soldier, send
me his or her info. A candle will be lit in their honor.)





Red White and Blue, A Prayer For Peace






RED IS FOR BLOOD SHED FROM OUR SLAIN SOLDIERS
AND NOT FOR THEM ALONE...FOR THE POW'S AND
THOSE MISSING IN ACTION, WHO NEVER MADE IT HOME.

I LIGHT THIS CANDLE IN YOUR HONOR,
TO KEEP YOUR MEMORY ALIVE.
I WON'T FORGET YOUR SACRIFICE...
YOU LAID DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR MINE.

WHITE IS THE SYMBOL FOR INNOCENT PEOPLE
WHO'VE DIED AT THE HANDS OF WAR.
A HIGH COST OF FREEDOM UNWILLINGLY PAID,
THAT'S WHAT THIS CANDLE'S FOR.

SO PRAY FOR THOSE WHOSE LIVES WERE LOST AND ONES THAT COULD BE
SAVED...HEAVENLY FATHER PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN
AND KEEP THEM FROM HARM'S WAY.

BLUE REPRESENTS COURAGE FROM OUR BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN,
THAT MAY BE CALLED TO WAR. THEY'LL FIGHT FOR OUR FUTURE, OUR
FREEDOM AND CHILDREN, FROM LAND, AIR, SEA AND SHORE.

SO LIGHT A CANDLE IN A SOLDIER'S NAME,
AND TO GOD OUR FATHER PRAY.. PLEASE GUIDE AND PROTECT OUR
BELOVED TROOPS AND GOD BLESS THE U.S.A.

LIGHT THESE CANDLES AND SAY A PRAYER, THAT HATE AND WAR MAY
CEASE, AND LOVE YOUR ENEMY AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF,
SO THAT WE ALL MAY LIVE IN PEACE.
