just about where I want to be

I would like ya'll to pray for my brother-in-law in Iraq. Hopefully he'll be back in September. He's been out there since February, and he got married in January. So just pray he gets home safe.

Amen...

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

I sure will put in a word upstairs for him, and when you see him, please give him a hug from the Canuck. I surely do appreciate his going over there on my behalf to keep us all a little more free.

Thank you everyone. His name is Brian, and he just turned 20 I believe. His wife is 18 and trying to balance a job and college, and also the fear of having him over there in the thick of everything. Her name is Maggie, and maybe you should pray a little for her too. It would be much appreciated.

UPDATE!! My brother-in-law just got back to the states! He is fine, and glad to be home. Continued prayers as his heart rate has jumped abnormally for some reason.

I am so happy for you all that he is home and safe. I don't doubt his health has suffered as he must have been running on sheer adrenalin while over there. It is amazing what the body will withstand when it has to but it also knows when it is time to rest. Wish him well and thank him SO much for going over there in the first place. I truly hope he is home for a stay, and this will end before he is ever called back. God bless him.

Yay! (does happy dance) Oh, dearest friend, I am so happy to hear your brother is home and has returned safely. My thoughts and prayers continue to go out to all the young men and women down there and I wish them to return home as soon as possible and return to their loving families and lifestyles.

Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

My prayers are with you as I hope yours will be with me, my boys daddy is in Iraq, we are divorced and they live with their step mom through the school year, they were recently married and she is pregnant, even though we are divorced I am very worried about him.

Good luck with all and to all,
