A Soldier's Homecoming




On November 11, 2007, the long awaited day arrived. Our dear friend, Dwight Martin, was coming home from his fourteen month deployment in Iraq. One little boy was especially excited. His nightly prayer was for God to keep Dwight safe and bring him home soon. God heard that little voice and answered his prayer, and what a joyful reunion it was!


The anticipation was high, as we made the welcome home signs, and drove the icy highway to Fort Richardson to witness the arrival of 371 soldiers returning home. It was truly an experience never to be forgotten!
