About Operation DEPLOYMENT INSPIRATION
The idea for Operation Deployment Inspiration came from our son, Chris Barber who is a captain in the Army in the 82nd Airborne, serving in Iraq near the Syrian border. Recently he sent me this request:

Mom, if you could send me some prayers, I do a prayer with my guys before every mission and want to start using some passages/prayers. All is well with my men.

I sent Chris a few passages from the Psalms and copied the last stanza to "My Country Tis of Thee." Then I seemed to run out of ideas. I emailed him and asked him if it would be OK for me to circulate an email to others who might have prayers and short inspirational words that our men and women in the Armed Forces could use before they go out on dangerous missions.

He wrote back, "Mom, sounds great about the devotionals."

Many thanks to all of you who help inspire our troops!
