Louie Giglio, pastor of Passion City Church in Atlanta, Georgia, and the founder of the Passion Conferences, captured a moving scene and posted it on Instagram on Tuesday: a fallen U.S. soldier whose casket was being taken off of his flight.
“Very sobering flight to Pensacola today knowing the body of this fallen U.S. service member is literally traveling home beneath my seat,” Giglio wrote. “What a humbling reality.”

The popular preacher went on to express his gratitude for brave military members “who sacrifice for the cause of freedom” and wrote that he honors these individuals, before offering up a prayer for the soldier’s family and friends.
“Father, hold and comfort all who grieve this service member’s death as they carry such loss and sacrifice today,” Giglio wrote.
Giglio also posted a video on his Instagram Stories of the flag-adorned casket being taken off of the plane.
Prayers up for that soldier’s family.
