MEMORIALS

Today, I know of six families at least that are active military...

We also know several others that we attended church with who are still active duty.

Most are young (early twenties).....most have young families and their even younger wives are here at home with them away in war ravaged countries. Some have been to those countries several times...

One is finishing up boot camp....after pursuing a masters degree....

One mother lamented that he was going to war again in the fall...she was praying against his return...

A couple are chaplains---one going to war soon and the other here giving hope to those returning with issues and those families who lose loved ones....(these are thirty- something in age)Yes, they have families, too!

Most have families that are away from them, living in a far away state---their military family is their immediate support.

However, in all these cases, they have one thing in common---they love the Lord and look to Jesus for their life and support!!

God bless these men for serving....and giving....
