A New and Worthy Project

Getting towards the end of my tour here, I find my thoughts drifting more and more towards home and resuming my long-lost life with my wife, dogs and extended family in Austin, TX. However, something has come up recently that has renewed my vigor and as crazy as it sounds has had me regretting that I have such a short time left! Well, to be more accurate, I'm regretting that I didn't meet these guys a year ago. Just last week I got a letter from a reader who turned me on to an ongoing film documentary project about Civil Affairs:

www.winninghearts.org

Interestingly enough, it was inspired by the writings of Rob Schultheis in his book Waging Peace that I had put up on my Recommended Readings section back in September! Mr. Schultheis is involved directly with the project as well. It inspired me to write to them, offering whatever assistance I could to help make their project a success and get the word out about the good work we do here every day. I got a prompt response back and we're in discussions as to how I might be able to help contribute to this effort.

And if you want to contribute, they have a "Donate" button at the bottom of their main page.

Thanks for posting this information! I am sure they appreciate your assistance. I know I do.

Hope you had a great weekend! Stay safe. I'll "see" you again soon.

Praying for you,

By the way, I hope you have a safe and enjoyable trip home!

Thanks for all that you have done for our country while you have been in the military. I appreciate your sacrifices on our behalf.

I will be back again to read more. I have enjoyed your site so much!
