Dear Friends of The Frontline Faith Project, On Wednesday, November 11, 2015 , the Frontline Faith Project is sponsoring it's fourth annual "An American Moment" to honor the men and women of our Armed Forces, past and present. This event will include one moment of silent prayer-prayer to thank our military for their service, to pray for the peaceful repose of those who have died, and to pray for the intentions of those still living. This event will take place  at noon  in each respective time zone, all across the world, on Veteran's Day 2015.
