On December 20, 2009 we had a special prayer for our troops. Julie Elliott sang a special solo for the occasion.
The Masjid-i Jahān-Numā (the “World Reflecting Mosque”), situated in the heart of Old Delhi, is the largest and most important mosque in India.

Powerful Christmas Prayers to Share Gratitude and Hope with Family and Friends. Christmas prayers offer a beautiful way to reflect on the birth of Jesus Christ and the many blessings we have.
Without a doubt, this has been a trying year for all of us. We may focus on the hope and joy we have despite the circumstances that may be surrounding us as we recall God's love and the gift of Jesus this holiday season.
12 Best Christmas Prayer
- Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth, may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.
- May you be filled with the wonder of Mary, the obedience of Joseph, the joy of the angels, the eagerness of the shepherds, the determination of the magi, and the peace of the Christ child. Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit bless you now and forever.
- Not gold, nor myrrh, nor even frankincense would I have for you this season, but simple gifts, the ones that are hardest to find, the ones that are perfect, even for those who have everything (if such there be).
- I would (if I could) have for you the gift of courage, the strength to face the gauntlets only you can name, and the firmness in your heart to know that you (yes, you!)

As people walk around the Stupa clockwise reciting prayers, their path takes them through the Prayer Wheel House, where they turn the prayer wheels as they go. The prayer wheels are at the front of the building. The back part has drawers where the ashes of the deceased will be kept. The prayer wheels contain millions of mantras for peace and compassion which have been inscribed on paper soaked in saffron water and specially blessed. As one turns the prayer wheel clockwise it activates the blessing of the mantras, tramsmitting the energy of peace and compassion in all directions.
