Ron was deployed with the Marines to Fallujah for a year and saw both the combat there and, upon return, the need for ministry to those men and their families. Out of 1000 men they lost 33 and awarded almost 500 purple hearts (for injury in combat).</p> While I was at the Pepperdine Lectures a couple of weeks ago, a young Navy chaplain LT Ron Kennedy gave an excellent presentation about that very topic, Rex: ministering to military members, especially those returning from Irag and Afghanistan.
