In the skies today, we saw destruction
and tragedy. In the words of the
prophet Isaiah, "Lift your eyes and
look to the heavens". Who created
all these? He who brings out the
starry hosts one by one and calls them
each by name. Because of his great
power and mighty strength, not one of
them is missing. The same Creator
who names the stars also knows the
names of the seven souls we mourn
today. The crew of the shuttle
Columbia did not return safely to
Earth; yet we can pray that all
are safely home.
President George W. Bush - 2/1/03
