Awaiting homecoming


My husband is currently serving in Iraq. He is Cpl. Michael Nelson of the United States Marine Corp. He left in Aug 2007 and will be coming home sometime March 2008!

-- Sarah Nelson of Sallisaw, Oklahoma
May God bless you and your family!
I don't know this guys, but our Lord Jesus Christ knows them. I am sure that Jesus is protecting them from any harm. Our prayers is with them so one day they will come home safe to be with their families.

God Bless you
Stay strong Sarah...it is almost Homecoming time. I know you are looking forward to wrapping your arms around him and feeling him squeeze you back. I am in the same position as you and can't wait for my hubby to come home as well.My prayers are with you and all other spouses during this time. Semper Fi, Marine Wives!!
