Frontline Faith: Catholic MP3 players for the troops

Just saw a news story on Fox about Frontline Faith. It is an organization that distributes MP3 players to troops that have a myriad of material on the players so that the troops have their faith "with them" during deployment.

From their website:

The FRONTLINE FAITH Players include an audio rendition of the Mass celebrated by The Most Reverend Timothy P. Broglio of the U.S. Archdiocese for the Military Services; a "Warrior Rosary" conceived by Lynda MacFarland, the wife of a career military man, using the sorrowful mysteries; "Centurions of Rome," a presentation made by the late Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y.; children's letters to soldiers read by the children themselves; an examination of conscience; and two-and-a-half hours of stories about faith in military life, including "The Grunt Padre" about a priest who ministered to infantry soldiers and a tale of a soldier who carried the Eucharist into battle.

This really is a great idea, and I know others have posted about this, because as I searched for the webstie and info about it, lots of blogs popped up -- so that is good! But I wanted to make sure I did my part in getting the word out. The players cost $24 and they distribute them through the kind donations of people like you and I. So please, go to the website, donate and buy a gift for a service member this Christmas.

Here is the link to the TRACK LIST that is on every Frontline Faith MP3 player.
