Ok I just finish talking with my brother, and while we spend time together, I am showing them these threads. My mom decided we need to stop everything and pray. So we did.
I don't know how to say this, but guys stay calm. You will see soon why, it is so hard for me to tell you what is going on but I just can't.
For all of you, pray and be at alert. Everything will be fine. These people are asking for it and they will get it very soon.
God Bless

US soldiers confirmed missing
From correspondents in Washington
April 10, 2004
TWO US soldiers are missing following an attack by Iraqi insurgents on their convoy west of Baghdad.
Military spokesman Justin McCue said: "There are two soldiers missing as a result of an attack on the convoy today ... the attack occured right around Baghdad International Airport."
McCue said it was unknown if the soldiers had been abducted by insurgents following a flurry of kidnappings of foreigners across Iraq in recent days.
Earlier today, US Central Command announced that a member of the 13th Corps Support Command had been killed and 12 wounded in an attack on their convoy near Baghdad International Airport.
It was not immediately known if the missing soldiers were part of the same convoy.

While the United Methodists in my church were asked to pray for peace this morning, this one prayed for VICTORY.
No peace before VICTORY. God Bless!
