Sean left today :(

Sean left this afternoon. He will fly for 11 hours, refuel and then fly for another 10 or so hours. I can't talk about where he will be staying or any details. He will be training for a month or so and then will go to Iraq. Below is a list of ideas for a care package for anyone who would like to send him one. If you would like do, just email me and I will give you his address. Please keep us in your prayers. 2009 is going to be a long and hard year for us.
