Alex Update

We hear from Alex every couple of weeks. He is very busy every day, and nights too.... he is a transportation officer and runs convoys of equipment and supplies to various posts in the area each night. Then it is back to base for a couple of hours sleep, then back to work again. He has expressed gratitude for the various cards, letters, and packages he has received, calling them a highlight of his day. Keep praying for his safety and health, for strength, for good friendships, and for his walk with the Lord. And of course, pray for peace.

I was thinking of you and Alex the other day. My mom shared with me a letter that was just found that was to my grandmother from my grandfather when he was in WWII. To know that you can talk to Alex and get pictures like this, well, it shows how long we've come. You are very lucky that you can have this kind of contact. We continue to pray for his safety.

What a handsome soldier! Good to see him smiling. You know I will pray for him and thank you for praying for John. I cannot wait till they are both home again. It will be such a sweet time of homecoming. Take care dear friend.
