*D Day*

For my international friends: Today Americans remember D Day. On June 6, 1944, American, British, Canadian and Free French troops invaded the beaches at Normandy in what was said to be the most ambitious act and turning point in World War II. Husband's grandfather was there (in one of those 5,000 ships) and even lived to tell the story! This is a prayer delivered by FDR on the radio the evening of the invasion. I hope wherever you are, you'll stop today to pray for the soldiers. One of our best friends is fighting in the middle east right now and not one day goes by that I don't stop at some point and pray for Matt.
