Prayer and Fasting | Dr. Levendusky
I am designating Tuesday, November 8, as a special day of prayer and fasting for our staff, families, and ministry. May we come together as the Lord’s people to pray that “thy kingdom come, they will be done, in earth, as it is in heaven”

“For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.” (Psalm 75:6-7) 
Chaplain Burch's Reception

Basic Training Update
Five days and counting! The days are long, but the weeks are short in Basic Training. This week will mainly consist of the Unit's preparation for Advancement Day on Friday.
