Dear Hero Supporters,

You received some emails from me earlier today. A couple from two of our Marines and one from me telling about our Thanksgiving Cards and Christmas plans for gift boxes for our Marines and asking for your help in filling the gift bags.

I wrote to you that our military sons would be home with us Christmas but thousands wouldn't be and that " I plan on reaching hundreds of them. No, let me rephrase, I WILL reach hundreds of them. I welcome your gifts and any help you can give. "

Later, I received an email from Harry and Cheryl Salem, two of our Supporters, telling me of a church in Louisiana that wanted to send Christmas packages to deployed troops. They told them about what we are doing and that they would have me contact them. Now, I don't know about you, but I believe God just opened the door to reaching HUNDREDS OF MARINES. I love the way our God works !

I sit here with a huge smile on my face and tears in my eyes because I know there are more hearts being touched and more doors being opened. And I can feel the happiness that will fill the hearts of the Marines who will be on the receiving end of these gifts, letters, cards and prayers.

I wanted to share this gift of giving with you because it was just too good to keep to myself and when our Marines get blessed, believe me, WE GET BLESSED, TOO. God bless you all and remember to keep our Marines in your thoughts and prayers.

Semper Fi
