Battalion Update | Capt. Vanderford Praise the Lord with us! After being delayed by some complications beyond his control, Liam Price passed his Private Pilot check ride this past Saturday morning. Clinical rotations for the EMT unit begin tomorrow. Each man will do seven shifts through the next several weeks, with their time split between the Christus Good Shepherd ER and Longview Fire Department’s ambulances. The Missions class is scheduled to return from their service deployment tomorrow night. Please pray for the men in training to have the right focus as the pressures of study and battalion responsibilities wear on them. Continue to pray for the leadership to have the wisdom to know how to best help these guys grow.
|
| Basic Training Update | Maj. Boulden Week three of Basic Training is off and running! The men will spend most of the week taking Search and Rescue classes and River Crossing and Rappeling. At the end of this week, the men will be doing the 6-Hour Hike. Please pray for them as we continue to ramp up the pressure and help "forge" these men for the Kingdom.
|
| Leadership Corner | Maj. Boulden The world changes constantly, and by extension, so do we—both as an organization and as individuals. We have to realize that we can’t do the things we used to do in quite the same way. We change positions or change programs, we can’t maintain the lifestyle we used to have. We get married or have children. These things change us and should change the way we live. None of these changes are failures. They’re simply steps in the journey. A well-lived life without calibration is unlikely and could be detrimental. Take stock of where you are. Re-calibrate. Take the next step.
