SoldiersPrayingMom just phoned me in tears to report that Sgt. Greg Parkinson (jmpmstr4u2) had been injured in the explosion of an improvised explosive device.
The Department of Defense called Greg's wife, Tammy, to inform her of the injury just after midnight California Time. They told her that he had been evacuated to a field hospital, that he had all of his limbs, but that he has injuries in his left arm and back.
SoldiersPrayingMom requests all Freepers to pray for healing and complete recovery. Pray for his Mom and Dad, Ruth (SoldiersPrayingMom) and Jim Parkinson, Greg's wife, Tammy, and his two daughters who face uncertainties and fear for his condition. Greg and his family need all of your prayers and support.
Developing!
Prayer bump!
Prays going up to God Almighty to heal this man and comfort his family.
OH NO! Prayers for the entire family.
Should this FReeper's anonymity be so casually breached?
Is my concern misplaced?
Blessings - Brian
Jmpmstr4u2 was injured today in Iraq in the explosion of an improvised explosive device when his vehicle hit the IED. Current reports are that he is alive, has all of his limbs, but was injured in his left arm and back. Your Prayers are needed now to ask God to guide the hands of the surgeons in his treatment, for Greg's full recovery, and his safe return to his family.
Pass the prayer request on at your churches and to your email addressees. Let's send Greg all the best wishes and prayers we can muster.
A great friend of America and FreeRepublic is lying in pain and needs our help. If you maintain an FR Ping list, ping your list for more praying Freepers.
I'd hardly call it "casual" Brian.
Prayed.
Prayers for the soldier.
Thanks for your concern. His name has been published both here and on his website. The report I posted was read to his mother and approved by her before I posted it.
Prayers Up!
Prayer Given
May this soldier heal quickly and return to his family just as quickly. Another wounded but alive hero. That's the good news; he made it through the explosion alive.

On behalf of all of the Mods, I offer my thoughts and prayers. Here's for a quick recovery!
Urgent prayers needed for Greg. His parents and brother were at our Fresno picnic last summer. Greg's current tour was just about up and he was looking forward to coming home soon. Prayers for him and his family and his troops who were also hit and their families. Praying they all recover quickly and are home to their families soon. God bless them all.
Prayer bump!
Prayers for his recovery, heal and mend him, oh Lord.
May the healing hand of Almighty God touch this brave soldier! Prayers for him and the family.

Adding my humble prayer for Greg.
Okay, Team, get to work! Say a prayer for this courageous soldier!
I am also praying for him and his entire family.
