Troop Prayer Thread 8

Posted on 10/03/2003 1:10:44 PM PDT by TEXOKIE

WELCOME!!

Welcome to the next in our series of prayer threads designed to spiritually support our troops, our allies, and the ones who are holding vigil for them.

Below is a list of troops which freepers have submitted for prayer. All who wish to participate at any level whatsoever is welcome. All participation commitment is strictly between you and your maker. While most who participate here are Christian, we strive to maintain an ecumenical spirit here and invite the participation of people of other faiths. We hold the belief here that ALL prayers are invaluable and make a difference. One never knows when that one little prayer breathed while waiting in traffic just might be the one that will be instrumental in saving the life or limb of a young soldier or marine or sailor or airman or coast guarder.

We want everyone to know that while we reserve the List itself for those who are active military and their immediate families, we are willing and very happy to pray on our thread for those who are supporting our troops who may have some special prayer needs.

Some enjoy leading us in prayer by posting their own prayers. Some enjoy sharing with us relevant scriptures which give insight to events unfolding around us. Others enjoy bringing stories to our attention which seem to have some kind of Truth about our stated mission to support our troops spiritually. Some stories are funny, others heart warming, some are tear jerkers, some are feedback to show us that indeed our prayers and those of our countrymen ARE effective. We post links to these stories, which are often, but not always, other threads found on FreeRepublic.com. We have started calling these special stories, Prayer Warrior Field Trips, for it requires our Prayer Warriors to take a trip of sorts to another place. As we all know, journeys change us, and we hope some of the Prayer Warrior Field Trips will do that for us in their own way! Recently, Ragtime Cowgirl has begun an effort to collect "good news about our troops" stories. We wish to acknowledge here her efforts and encourage folks to read those stories and circulate them on your email lists. Sometimes we enjoy just visiting with each other a little bit and share things which are going on in our lives.

If you wish to have a special prayer posted for your loved one, ping or freepmail me or amom or any other posting Freeper whom you desire to have post a prayer. Or you may post your own prayer or prayer request for your loved one yourself, if you desire. This is your thread. We wish to have it be a place where not only are you supporting our troops, but that you will feel supported yourself while giving that support.

If you are active military, you are also VERY welcome to request special prayers for yourselves or your buddies.

PING LIST, ETC:

If you wish to be on or off our ping list, please notify me, or FReeper amom, who has been serving as our List Keeper. Also let us know if you have any updates or if we have made any errors!

For those of us who have somewhat limited computer capacity, we request that graphics be limited to pictures of loved ones for whom we are offering prayers, special visuals that seem particularly appropriate, and as much as possible, non-moving graphics. Thank you.

Soooooooo....wont you join us as we continue our journey together as Prayer Warriors, fighting a spiritual battle behind our precious young fighting men and women under arms? We are so grateful to them and so very proud. They are so deserving of any thing great or small which we can do to support them as they fight for our nation. Lurkers are welcome too, as well as those who choose to participate by posting. May God bless all who take up those spiritual arms and forge those mighty prayer bullets!

We are grateful to God that for those who have been injured or taken back Home, He has dispatched angels to their care.

UPDATED PRAYER LIST AS OF OCTOBER 1, 2003:

Our list keeper, amom has provided us with a couple of special sections. The first is a special mention list of folks on our list of whom we are aware of having special need for prayer.
