Project Adnon Photographer Wounded

I have learned that Chris Jones, a soldier who provided photos for Project Adnon, was recently wounded by an IED during a Patrol in Iraq. He is fine now, but is walking with a crutch. I ask everyone to keep him in your thoughts and prayers, and to hope for a speedy recovery

Starting Up Again

Project Adnon is starting up again. We will once again be gathering supplies to be sent to Iraq, and we will once again be working with Operation Iraqi Children

Success!

This is old news, but Project Adnon has concluded as a success. 22 boxes were to the OIC Warehouse, containing

-90 School Supply Kits
-33 blankets
-12 stuffed animals
-17 tarps
-20 reams of extra paper (courtesy of ICP.)

This was back in June, I appologize for the late announcement. I would like to thank everyone who was involved in the Project. Also, I'd like to congradulate OIC on their trial shipment to Afghanistan.

Combat Diary: The Marines of Lima Company

There will be a documentary airing on A&E next week on May 25 at 9:00 PM. It documents the events and experiences of Lima Company. One of our photographers, Cpl James McCauley was a member of Lima Company.

Last two work sessions succesful

There have been some difficulties with the site as of late, but they have now been sorted out. The last two meetings were succesful. This weekend we will have our last meeting.

Final Photographer

I'd like to introduce our latest, but regrettably last Project Adnon photographer. Robert Rusch has a very large album that chronicles his time in Iraq with the Marine Corps. Due to the massive amount of photos, Robert has to be our final member. I'd like to thank all of our photographers for their support, input, and for their enthusiasm. The photos are more than just a tool to promote this project, they provide a window into Iraq.

Third Work Session

Today was Project Adnon's third work session. The event was relatively small, but productive. St Luke member Jere Pritchard, who helped train and advise Iraqi police, was present at the meeting. We sorted supplies gathered from RGMS. Next week, a box will be put out at Wilson Highschool, and collection at St Luke Church will officially start.

Second Work Session

Yesterday, members of the Islamic Center of Portland, Bilal Masjid, and St Luke Church met at Bilal Masjid for Project Adnon's 2nd work session. Together, we made 10 blankets.

We look forward to the next meeting, when we will begin sorting donations.
