By Dawn's Early Light: Prayers and Meditations for Catholic Military Wives

"The women attached to the military deserve this book. It is a delightful gift to those who — by their love and sacrifice — have illustrated what giving means." The Most Reverend Timothy P. Broglio, Archbishop for the Military Services, USA Whether you’re together on a military base with your spouse or alone waiting for your loved one to return from deployment, you’re juggling the many endless, special, and often heartbreaking demands placed on military families – demands not addressed in most prayer books. And, like so many other military wives, you’ve often got to bear these burdens alone, and sometimes even silently. To help you, we’ve created this unique book for Catholic military wives. Here you’ll find powerful prayers composed for your needs and also frank and inspiring testimony from fellow Catholic military wives. These are your stories, told with unflinching honesty, echoing your heartaches, your pains, and yes, your amazing triumphs in faith, both small and large. On good days, By Dawn’s Early Light will help you thank God for the blessings of your spouse’s noble vocation; on bad days, it will help you walk steadily in your sure Catholic faith, grateful to be able to put one foot in front of another. All too well you know that for you, heroism doesn’t remain on the battlefield—it’s woven into the fabric of your life. By Dawn’s Early Light shines the healing light of Christ on that heroism, giving honour and praise to you and to God, as with Him you fulfil the duties and experience the joys of one of the most noble of all vocations: that of a military wife.
