Prayers

Dear Family and Friends,

This has been the hardest blog post to write. It is with this blog a plea for prayers. Early this week the 170th MP company suffered its first loss. It is first that I ask for prayers and support for this soldier's family, friends, and those left behind who loved him most. In addition to the loss two other soldiers were severely injured. I ask for prayers for them and their family as friends as well as they go through recovery and healing. The soldiers were conducting patrols through Kandahar in a convoy when the 2nd vehicle hit a very large IED. The three soldiers in the vehicle were all affected. I have heard briefly from Mark via e-mail which was a relief, but at the same time very difficult knowing that other families and wives did not receive similar news. Please keep Mark's unit in your prayers and all of the 170th MP company as we all grieve with the loss of one of our own Dragon Slayers. Please keep them in your hearts, ask God to protect them, and continue to send prayers for the families that have been shaken by the horrible events of the week.

Love

Angie
