Even the best of soldiers can suffer severe disabilities. But the story doesn’t end there! There is hope and help through the healing power of Jesus Christ.
Hi, I’m Joni, and I want to tell you about Matt, a chemical specialist in the Army. After two deployments to Iraq, he returned home with a rare muscle disease, a result of toxic exposure. Matt also has PTSD. His marriage was really struggling after all this, and that’s why he and his family decided to attend our Joni and Friends Warrior Getaway. In the middle of all the fun activities – the canoeing, hiking, one-on-one counseling, worship, Bible studies – Matt started on the path to healing. At the end of the week, he hugged his wife and said, “I can’t imagine where we’d be without Warrior Getaway.” Yep, even the best of soldiers can suffer severe disabilities. But there is help and hope, and God is doing great things through our Getaways. Learn how you can serve warrior families like Matt’s at joniandfriends.org. Check it out at joniandfriends.org.
