    Prayers for my nephew

    My nephew-in-law just received news that he's being deployed. He can't tell us where, when or for how long. He was just told to get his stuff together, call family, finish any unfinished business and make out a will. Please pray for him until he's home safe and sound again.
    Thanks,
    Beth

    Oh that's so scary! I pray for his safe return home.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    It is very hard to hear that sort of news these days. Will pray for you, and your family.

    Prayers on the way. One of my cousins in the reserves has been sent overseas too.

    I will keep him in my prayers, and hope for his safe return. That sounds so scary how you said he has to make out a will and everything--is that what they always tell you if you are deployed??

    I'm so sorry. Please let his family know we are praying for him. My hubby's cousin was sent to Guantamo Bay in January. These are scary times.

    Take care.

    Holding your nephew, and all the troops, in our thoughts and prayers.
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)

    They told him to make a will?! Man, how messed up...

    I'll keep him in my thoughts and hope for a safe return.

    My prayers are definately with you and your family, as well as all of the soldiers and their families! It's rather scarey knowing a loved one is headed over there as my husband, Brian, will be leaving in the next few months too!
