Pray for our Soldiers
Since Veteran's Day is coming up I would like to highlight two soldiers that we are praying for who are in Iraq. We pray for them daily and their families in our classroom. One is Joel Register who goes to Mr. Van Zweden's church and his name was brought to our attention early in the school year by one of the students in the class. He is the grandson of Robert Harper who formerly worked at our school and church doing traffic control in the mornings and maintenance. Mrs. Ryals also knows his family well and knew him when he was a baby. He has been in Iraq for a long time and he is full time Army. The other soldier is Trevor Davis and he is the best friend of Mrs. Ryals' son-in-law. They went to the police academy together and graduated back in March. He was deployed in early June and is now in Iraq since early October. He is in the army reserves. His wife attends Evangel Temple and he has been married less than a year. Joel is less than 21 years old and Trevor is about 28. We will be getting stuff together to send them a package for Christmas later this month (if I can get their new addresses). Please add them to your prayer list for this Veteran's Day and throughout the year until they all come home! Thanks!
