In Kuwait on My Way to Iraq

---

Dear Everybody,

Some of you may have gotten this on email already. I had not yet sterilized this website. I had to take all last names, unit information, etc. off so that I could use it. I will use this website to keep you all updated. So if you post comments, please don't post last names

From the email:

I’m in Kuwait right now on my way to Iraq. Laura is still in Alaska with Jaeden and Selah. Please pray for us. Pray for my safe return to my family. Pray that the Holy Spirit will comfort Laura and the girls and keep them safe while I’m gone. If you want to get in touch with me, email is the only way; but please call Laura to encourage her and to let her know that you’re praying for her. As I’m sure you can imagine, it’s really hard to raise two little ones while your husband is away at war.

Tony

I'm definitely praying for you guys. You be safe over there. I'm going to try my best to be in regular contact with Laura! Be safe...and thanks for everything you are doing over there.

Praying for you
Good Morning Tony, we will have you, Laura and the girls in our prayers each day. I know how hard it is for the whole family to have to endure this separation. I can also relate to the worry that goes along with you being in danger and Laura having the whole weight of caring for the girls alone. It is not easy to be both Mom and Dad to two little ones. And it is not easy to miss an entire year of their growing up. I am so proud of you all. If the world had more families like yours, we wouldn't even have a need for you to be there. I pray God will bless and keep you and protect and comfort your family. We love you. Grandma

Prayers from the Carolinas
Tony, So good to hear from you - Laura has mentioned you've gotten to call several times and I'm so glad. Just wanted you to know there are many pray warriors in the Carolinas holding you and your fellow soldiers up! I pray God's protective hand to guard and keep you, for Him to give you special discernment in every step you take and bring you home in His timing. I'm also praying for your spiritual influence, health and growth. A praise to share w/ you, I had the privilege of working at soul-winning booth at the NC State Fair 10/22/06 and led 1 person to Christ, a 16 yr old young man. Please tell your buddies - THANK YOU for serving and you're all in our prayers! Eph 3:20 Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. God bless you, bro-in-law! JJ

Prayers from Fairfax
Tony, Thanks for your service overseas. I and others at church will be praying for you at the normal Friday 0600 prayer warrior time. May a net of safety be around you and a net of peace be around Laura and the girls.
