MOM and DAD groups greet the troops

On Saturday, March 12, members of the MOM and DAD groups gathered in Asbury Hall for a potluck brunch and poster-making collaboration. Our mission: pray for and prepare to meet and welcome home members of the armed services who would be passing through DFW airport that afternoon. Forty-one family members participated! Despite multiple delays at the airport, a five-year-old participant spoke for the group as she left after greeting almost 300 battle-weary soldiers: "I'm soooo tired... but I'm soooo glad we got to say thank you, because those guys are tired from protecting us, all the time."
