Happy Veterans Day!

God of mercy we ask for blessings on all those who have served their country in the armed forces. We ask for healing for the veterans who have been wounded, in body and soul, in conflicts around the globe. Bring solace to them, O Lord. May we pray for them when they cannot pray. Have mercy on all our veterans. Bring peace to their hearts and peace to the regions they fought in. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
