Military Personnel Appreciation Site Launched

A cooperative venture of Assemblies of God Military Chaplaincy and Today's Pentecostal Evangel has launched a brand-new Web site intended to bolster our troops' spiritual and emotional morale, as well as that of their families.

On agmilitary.blogspot.com, anyone can leave a note of appreciation.

From the site:

The United States of America is blessed to have many brave men and women serving this country in the military. This site was born on September 11, 2007, the sixth anniversary of the 9/11 terror attack on America. It is intended to show our support, as Americans and Christians, of these courageous individuals and their families.

Please leave positive comments of support. Express your appreciation and/or tell them you are praying for them. You may address a particular branch or command or all the Armed Forces. You may even leave a message regarding a particular individual, as long as it does not convey personal or secure information. (Click on "comments" below to begin your message. Please leave your name rather than using the "anonymous" option. You may feel free to just leave your first name and your city or state of residence if you prefer.)

To our military personnel: Please read through the comments to see the support you have. And feel free to leave your own comments, or send news. Photos may eventually be posted on a separate site.

Col. Scott McChrystal adds a personal note:

In my role as Representative for the Assemblies of God to our military, I continue to search for ways to support our brave men and women who serve in our Armed Forces. Having served as an infantryman in Viet Nam, I can vividly recall what it feels like to fight a war that our nation didn’t support. As I am sure you agree, our military men and women today deserve much better for the enormous sacrifices they, along with their families, continue to make. They need our encouragement.

Together, let’s seize the opportunity. Please join us in our attempt to convey our love, appreciation, and support for their heroic efforts. Please take a few moments to express how you feel about them and the service they are providing to our nation. You can make a huge difference!
