We are soldiers

ANZAC Day is a perfect opportunity to remember not only the soldiers who have died defending our country but also those martyrs who have died defending the faith.

We are Soldiers

We are soldiers
fighting for the world,
a world who laughs behind our backs.
We fight an unseen enemy:
Satan and his minions
hide behind every evil thought.
We fight in every struggle to do what's right,
every seed of hope that is planted,
every invitation to join our Lord's side.
Do you believe you are a soldier?
Our battle is not of flesh and blood,
our enemies are evil spirits.
We have no guns or bombs
just a shield of faith
and a sword of the Living Word.
You are a soldier.
Fight bravely under our Lord's banner
and vanquish demons in His name.
Dress daily in the whole armour of God
and fight!
Fight for a dying world.

Lest we forget the sacrifice of the Saints
