Franklin Graham, head of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association disclosed Sat. that his youngest son, Capt. Edward Graham, an Army Ranger, has just been injured in Iraq, according to a report in the Charlotte Observer.
"He got shrapnel in his arms, legs and back," a Graham spokesman said. "And he was recovering...in a hospital that can't be named for security reasons."
Reportedly, the wounds to the 27-year-old captain were not "life threatening."
Huuurrraagghh Prayer Bump for Capt. Ed...GODspeed !!!
Prayers for Capt Graham and ALL of our men and women serving our country here and around the World.
Prayers up! And prayers for all of our wounded and all of our men and women serving in Iraq.
Prayers for Edward and the rest of the Graham family.
Many many prayers for the Graham family. May God stretch forth his hand and lend his strength.

Amen...Prayers Go Up...Blessing Come Down.
Speedy recovery, Capt. Graham. May you be back to the ones you love and back to the work you love to do -- though they won't happen at the same time -- by the best works of God and Man.
That picture says it all. Why we fight. Why they fear us and more importantly why we will win. God bless them all
May God bless this young man and his family. Here's to a speedy and full recovery!
The soldier on the left is flashing a gang sign. Crips?
I held my nose and went over there for a few minutes, as of last night at 9:00, they hadn't posted anything about him (that I could see).
Prayers for the Graham warrior!
Amen. Prayers for Edward's full recovery.
Franklin Graham was one of the most righteous voices in the wake of 9/11. God protect his son and all who serve so that others may live.
Prayers to the son.
I always preferred Franklin Graham to his father, Billy.
Billy never connected to me, wheras Franklin is more of a straight-talker.
My prayers to the Graham Family and Edward.
Here's an interesting interview of Franklin Graham on PBS...
This whole notion of tolerance. They say, "Well, you Christians are narrow-minded. You say Jesus is the only way. You're not tolerant of other religions." Well, the other religions are not tolerant of us. I'm not putting down their faith system; it's just not what I believe. And I don't accept their way as truth. They don't accept my way. That's fine. But don't ask me to believe that their way to God is a valid way. I don't believe that......Many people after 9/11 said that "The Muslims, they worship the same god we do, they just have their way to God. Christians have their way to God. But it's the same God." No, it's not. Now they recognize Jesus, but they don't recognize his deity. They've even taken excerpts out of the Old Testament and New Testament, and thrown it into the Qur'an, to sprinkle a few Bible verses throughout to give it validity. But the Qur'an is not the word of God. The Holy Bible is God's word.
Pretty poor PhotoShop - the skin color isn't even close.
That was and is my prayer as well. And for their families as well.
"Prayers for the Graham family. "
