Please pray for our soldiers in Afghanistan.


Eight Americans were killed today, as were 5 Canadians...  Please pray for the soldiers and for the families of these men and women; one can only imagine the sacrifice and suffering these people endure.

    "Insurgents" -- gimme a break, they are TERRORISTS! And yes, prayers for all concerned in this latest tragedy. It's tempting to say "nuke 'em", but then what??? Hard to find words for this ... God help us all.

    Pray that our troops are soon brought home from Afghanistan. Their presence there doesn't make anyone more safe.
