March 3, 2005

Adam will be coming into Peoria Airport at 2 pm on Friday the 4th. It is so exciting, but still hard to believe. We all just can't wait to get our hands on him, see him, hear his voice and just look at him.

I spent quite a while with Jesse the past few days just working with his wounds. He is coming along. Just continue to pray for him. Pray for healing without complications. He is to return to San Antonio at the end of March for rechecks on his injuries.

Please pray right now:
1. For Jesse - for continued healing, for control of infection, for encouragement emotionally.
2. For Tyler and his family - for continued healing and encouragement for the days and weeks to come.
3. For Adam and all of C Company - for safety for the flight home and adjustments emotionally and physically to home life.
4. For the guys in C Company from out of our area - their families will probably not be able to greet them at the airport. We have some from Vermont, Oregon and other places around the country. For their families as I know that they would want to be here to greet them, but logistically unable.
5. For the families of those young men and women who will never return home - for comfort and peace in their hearts and minds.
6. For all our troops still in Iraq. The war continues even as C Company is home. For their safety and protection, for wisdom to know the enemy. For alertness and quick thinking.

Thank you so much for praying. Please continue to pray. I'll keep you updated. We are planning a welcome home celebration at our home for Adam sometime in the near future. I will let you know the details as I know them.

In Christ's love and protection,
Jill
