WHILE YOU SLEEP,
WE TRAIN TO DEFEAT YOU


You WILL NOT penetrate our fortress
We WILL overrun your defenses
We ARE the keepers of the Sacred Kingdom
and the Leaders of the Crusade...

WE ARE THE CRUSADERS

"that in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.... For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers.... will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  (Romans 8:37-39)
