  Edward Graham, Chief Operating Officer with Samaritan's Purse, invites you to the 2025 High Country Warrior Ride. Edward Graham has been a long-time supporter of the High Country Warrior Ride. This ride is held each year in May to raise funds to send wounded veterans and their spouses to Operation Heal Our Patriots (OHOP). Each Sunday evening throughout the summer, Samaritan's Purse aircraft touch down on the gravel runway at Samaritan Lodge, Alaska, to the sights and sounds of a flag-waving crowd. In one way, it marks the end of a journey for weary military couples, but it's the beginning of something, too. Many people across the country are praying for these wounded veterans and their spouses that God will use their week in Alaska through Operation Heal Our Patriots to bring them both rest and a new start with God and each other. To take part in the 2025 High Country Warrior Ride, please follow this link: https://samaritanspurse.cventevents.com/event/4e7b2f4b-5ac...
