O LORD, who never failest to help and govern those whom thou dost bring up in thy stedfast fear and love; Keep us, we beseech thee, under the protection of thy good providence, and make us to have a perpetual fear and love of thy holy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

  News: Thanks to a fellow centurion who sent us this week an article entitled Following the Centurions. I've placed a link to it under our Links page, under Articles. I commend it to you and your associates. It is an excellent article by Lt. Col Burt Tussing (USMC Ret) that resides on the Officer Christian Fellowship web site.
