Almighty God, our heavenly Father, let thy protection be upon all those who are in the service of our country; guard them from all harm and danger of body and soul; sustain and comfort those as home, especially in their hours of loneliness, anxiety, and sorrow; prepare the dying for death and the living for your service; give success to our arms on land and sea and in the air; and grant unto us and all nations a speedy, just and lasting peace. Amen.

On Friday evening a group of seminarians dressed in clerical attire [and sweatshirts bearing the motto "dedicated to the defense of all human life"], and laity gathered to offer a pro-life witness at the Kerry/Edwards Debate Watch Party and Rally held at the America's Center downtown St. Louis.
The group, which was about 25 in number, gathered at 5:30 pm for prayer and instructions. After that, they walked to the America's Center while praying the Stations of the Cross. When they arrived, they got in line to enter the event like everyone else.
