Leadership Corner | Capt. Boulden
We as leaders are the bridge builders for the men and woman who come behind us. We do this work of ministry not for ourselves, but for those who are coming after us. Lets us build a bridge that will stand the test of time. A bridge worth building. A bridge worth crossing long after we are gone. Read more on the Bridge Builder. 
Basic Training Update | Capt. Boulden
We are off into Week 5 of Basic Training and Unit 60 will officially hit their halfway point on Wednesday! The Unit had a very hot, humid, but successful 12-Hour hike last week. Thank you all for your prayers and support. This coming week of training is what we call "Survival Week." The Unit will be spending the entirety of the week on the north side of the lake. They will be involved in classes ranging from shelter building, foraging for food, traps and snares, alternative fire building, field water purification, and more. Please pray that the men would stay healthy and motivated during their week in the woods.
