This picture is an Army soldier in Iraq with his tiny "plot" of grass in front of his tent. It's heartwarming! Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked his wife to send him dirt (U.S. soil), fertilizer, and some grass seed so that he can have the sweet aroma, and feel the grass grow beneath his feet. When the men of the squadron have a mission that they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil -- to bring them good luck.
If you notice, he is even cutting the grass with a pair of a scissors. Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and think about the little things that we take for granted.
Upon receiving this, say a little prayer for our soldiers that give and give (and give up) so unselfishly for us.

That's awesome! John Heywood
Hey,how about some new stuff!?
As an Iraqi, I would like to say thank you for all you citizens for the contribution that you have made. I also would like you to have a look around you and try to protect our follow Christians in Baghdad and Mousil. Please join me and other Iraqis in a prayer to help all citizens live in peace.
