St. Louis Cardinals vs. San Diego Padres
Remember those who defend our freedom. As military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan continue, it’s easy for those of us without immediate family members in the military to slip into compassion fatigue. While it’s true that many of our military personnel have rotated back to the US, for which we are deeply grateful, it’s also true that a number of other servicemen and servicewomen have been rotated back to Iraq and others are scheduled to returned there within the next month or so. Please pick up an updated military prayer list and continue to pray for these brave men and women and their families. If you have a service person in your family, please help us keep our list accurate and continue to supply us with copies of pictures, email, letters, etc. so that we can keep them in our hearts and minds and lift their name (and yours) to God.
