God help us all.  How many times can one man be deployed to war torn areas and be put in the line of fire?  Apparently, the answer is 5 times until death. 

Jesus, Mary and all saints and all angels pray for Raul. 

Let us pray that Raul Guerra is in heaven. Let us pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen.
