“It was so much fun with Face Time with my daughter in law as she opened the Dolls from Heaven box. She was so excited and we laughed and talked about how it came to be. The 6 month wait from the time I heard your company story on Catholic radio to her opening the box was delightful anticipation. My son is in the Army. There is an award for spouses given for their exceptional work with families. It's the Joan of Arc award. My daughter in law received this award a couple years ago. That is what makes this so special for her and me.”
A Soldiers Prayer to St. Joan of Arc
St. Joan of Arc, humble maiden of France, your heavenly Father miraculously endowed you with every military skill and knowledge, and raised you up as the Commander of the armies of France for the blessing of His Church, the protection of His people, and the glory of His Holy Name. By your merits and prayers may God also endow all military men and women with every military skill and knowledge necessary for his station of duty. May his mission always be righteous, and his actions always be courageous, compassionate, and just. And just as you showed your ardent love for Jesus in offering up your life for Him, so may they fulfill all that their duty requires. St. Joan of Arc pray for us that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Amen.
