I want to start an online support group for our soliders who are overseas. I want it get group of kids together who wants to do this too and to pick a solider to be a pen pal with. Instead of writing letters and waiting for snail mail to get to them, we could be pen pals with them using the internet. I just don't know how to get started so if anyone who wants to join in on this than post here.


I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and struggling to take hold of the prize. My friends, I don't feel that I have already arrived. But I forget what is behind, and I struggle for wha

I'm in.

Amp, I'll send you letters of how nice a tour of duty with the Canadian military could be.

Hehehe...

Writing to them is not a bad idea at all. They do so much for us that it'd be ridiculous not to take a couple of minutes out of your day to thank them!
