US soldiers in Iraq
asked to pray for
Bush

They may be the ones facing danger on the battlefield, but US
soldiers in Iraq are being asked to pray for President George W
Bush.

Thousands of marines have been given a pamphlet called "A
Christian's Duty," a mini prayer book which includes a tear-out
section to be mailed to the White House pledging the soldier
who sends it in has been praying for Bush.

"I have committed to pray for you, your family, your staff and
our troops during this time of uncertainty and tumult. May God's
peace be your guide," says the pledge, according to a journalist
embedded with coalition forces.

The pamphlet, produced by a group called In Touch Ministries,
offers a daily prayer to be made for the US president, a
born-again Christian who likes to invoke his God in speeches.

Sunday's is "Pray that the President and his advisers will seek
God and his wisdom daily and not rely on their own
understanding".

Monday's reads "Pray that the President and his advisers will be
strong and courageous to do what is right regardless of critics".
