The following was taken from an e-mail notice from our church. I'm sure Josh and Kim would have us focus on the reminder in the last paragraph.
The war in Iraq got very personal for us this week. Captain Josh Byers was killed this week serving his country and protecting us from ism.

Josh and his wife, Kim, were part of Southwest Community Church when they were stationed here several years ago. Many of us knew them and loved them. We mourn the loss of this fine, young Christian man. We rejoice in the fact he is now home with God.

Pray for Josh's family as they grieve the loss of their loved one. Pray for God's grace and comfort. If you would like to send a note or card, we can get you their address.

Pray for the rest of our troops and their families. There is still over 140,000 men and women in that combat arena doing what Josh was doing - answering the call of their country to protect the liberty of the rest of us. Let's do our part. Pray!
