  "Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God... That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God's plan."—Sarah PalinThe Huffington Post: Palin's Church May Have Shaped Controversial...

About a $30 billion project that's going to create a lot of jobs for Alaskans and we're going to have a lot of energy flowing through here. And pray about that also... I think God's will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built. So pray for that."—Sarah PalinThe Huffington Post: Palin's Church May Have Shaped Controversial...

And hundreds and thousands of people are going to come to the state to seek refuge and the Church has to be ready to minister to them."&;Pastor Ed KalninsThe Huffington Post: Palin's Church May Have Shaped Controversial...
