Remember the 68,000
January 4, 2013 by John Potter
If you are looking for a cause that needs your prayer and support in 2013, look no further than the American Soldier.
Even though the surge ended this year, there are 68,000 service members who are still fighting in Afghanistan. While the headlines talk about budget cuts, college football games, and Hollywood celebrities, their stories are often untold and forgotten.
These are America’s warriors who have left their homes and families to defend our nation. These are the college students who cancelled classes when their nation called. These are the fathers and mothers who missed a child’s first steps at home. These are the veterans who have dodged bullets and bombs to stay alive.
Remember them in 2013. Remember those who are fighting and sacrificing for you. Remember military spouses. Remember military families. Remember them in your prayers and your efforts. Remember the 68,000.
