POW's Prayer
Father, Your own Son was a prisoner,
Condemned, He died for us,
Victorious, He returned to bring us
the gift of life everlasting.
Comfort us now in our longing for
the return of the Prisoners of War
and those Missing In Action.

Help Us, Father,
Inspire Us to remove the obstacles
Give courage to those who know the
truth to speak out,
Grant wisdom to the negotiators,
and compassion to the jailors
Inspire the media to speak out as
loudly as they have in the past,
Protect those who seek in secret
and help them to succeed.
Show us the tools to do Your will.
Guard and bless those in captivity,
their families, and those who
work for their release.
Let them come home soon.

Thank You, Father.
Amen

   "The POW experience is like having a serious wound that eventually heals but leaves a permanent ugly scar. We who have survived do not consider ourselves as heroes...only survivors...If there were any heroes among us, it was those who perished...Those who gave up their tomorrow's so we could have our today's."
