Please say a prayer for the soldiers killed yesterday. It was a patrol less than a 1/2 mile from John's AO (area of operation). The patrol had stopped to talk to some locals in a market when they came under small arms fire. As there attention was drawn to the shooter, a suicide bomber walked up behind them and blew himself up. I believe 5 were killed and 3 were hurt.
John is due back in the states by mid-April and we are all very nervous because of the stepped up attacks in the last few weeks. He called me at 6:30 AM to let me know that he was ok. He did not know any of the soldiers personally but the attack was very unnerving for everyone.
If you have a moment please say an extra prayer for the safety of all those in harms way.
Thank you!
Blessings,
Krisann

Praying for all who lost their lives and were injured. It is so hard waiting for that call to let you know he is ok. I am so glad he was able to call you to give you peace.
