Many times we have come to you, our followers, with many situations needing prayer for others this past few months. Today, we come asking for prayer for our family.
We are so very sad to have to tell you about a tragic accident last night that has taken the lives of three of our faithful mule string. We received a call that no equine owner ever wants to receive early this morning. A tree came down on a pasture fence last night, and Vader, Amigo, and Kev left the pasture, went down a quarter-mile dirt path, and were hit while on the road.
We could not be more heartbroken over this incredible loss, and it is with great pain that we share it with you, as we know many of you have also fallen in love with these sweet animals.
We will forever honor them for their faithful, loyal, and honorable service to others as they were used in training of some of the finest military members our country has, and especially the countless hours of work they have done to help so many families affected by Hurricane Helene. Besides their service, they were more importantly a part of our family, and loved.
Please pray for us at Mountain Mule Packers and Mission Mules as we cope with this terrible loss while continuing to go forward in their honor. We know that God can comfort us and show us the way going forward.
