Last week a few of us had the privilege of sharing a meal with these fine Peshmerga soldiers. They are holding the frontline against ISIS, enduring our protection and fighting for freedom I behalf of the entire world. Most are from my home town and many of them also happen to be my neighbors.

I got the sobering news that ISIS shelled this outpost - just 300 yards from this tent - that we were visiting on Wednesday, killing 1 Peshmerga and injuring 3 others.

Any day they will be taking the fight to ISIS as they make plans to recapture Mosul. Friends, they are in need of your prayers.
