Support the Troops through Prayer


Thanks to Lisa Wheeler of the Maximus Group for sharing the following information. Please consider contacting your parish ASAP to see if you can participate in supporting our troops through prayer:

Maximus just got brought as part of an unbelievable, but powerful challenge – the distribution of 2 million prayers cards in honor of our troops by September 5th.

We know the best way to make this happen (and to make the beautiful prayer written by an Army Chaplain efficacious throughout the country) is to unite our churches and their communities.

The prayers cards are completely free including postage and delivery. All we need is the commitment from the church, school or organization to accept the prayer cards and distribute them to their parishioners or members on the weekend of September 6th and 7th.

The website www.americaunitedinprayer.com features the prayer as well as additional resources for churches to unite and pray for the men and women serving in our Armed Forces. A touching video presentation is also available that you can imbed on websites and social platforms.

Please, please, pass this on to everyone you know. They can contact us with the information on their order for their church or ministry. We would need the following:

Name of church
Street Address for mailing
Contact Name
Contact Phone Number
Contact Email Address
Number of prayer cards

Please email us at Maximus at this address: unitedinprayer@maximusmg.com or call us by phone – 678-990-9032. You may ask for Ashley Walker, Lisa Huber or Nick Shaw.

Hi Lisa,

I'm a little late to the game on this comment, but I thought this might interest you.

It's a contest, where you write letters to the troops, and are entered to win prizes. Never mind my babbling though, see for yourself: http://dearhero.opgratitude.com/

If you could take a few minutes to write a letter to the troops, and even possibly pass it on, it would be a big help.
