Phather Phil’s Prayer
Heavenly Father we are nearing our favorite times of the year, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Thank You for blessing us and our country at these times Lord. Christmas of course is our best holiday and is one of our fun times to bring Christmas cheer to our community. Help us to pass on the love of Your son by showing our love to all the people we meet. We stand in judgement all the days of our lives by what we say and do. May our talking and doing always be in harmony with You. Amen!

Today’s Speaker
Debe Dockins introduced our speaker, Gunnery Sergeant Christian Bussler, retired USMC. Sgt. Bussler comes from a long line of military in his family. He joined the Marine Corp reserves after high school. In Dec 2002 his unit was activated to Kuwait, his first tour of duty. On his second tour he suffered severe injuries but considers himself lucky to be alive. On his third tour he was assigned to a mortuary affairs unit where he initiated starching and ironing the flag on each coffin. This, he believes, shows proper respect for the deceased soldier. In order to conquer his demons upon coming home he has written a book. Sgt. Bussler received a standing ovation.
