Food Lines during July Please note that while Quest is here, they will be served exclusively through line 2. Battalion, Sound Foundations, and staff can continue through line 1. (We will be scanning meals through line 1 and importing meals through line 2.) Thank you for helping us simplify this process!

| Sound Foundations Contact For the duration of the summer and beyond, please direct ALL music course questions to the email address or G chat of music@iblp.org. For phone, call 903-636-9334. For any urgent questions, call Susannah Hulin at (832) 948-6346. |
| Choir and Orchestra Vocalists over age 15 are welcome to join choir or orchestra for Sound Foundations ($50). Rehearsals take place from 1:45–3:45 PM, Monday-Friday, July 19-August 5. Closing concert is 7 PM on Thursday, August 5 at the Field House stage. To sign up, please email music@iblp.org. |
| Summer Family Conference We are looking forward to our Summer Family Conference, August 1-5. General sessions will take place in the Chapel, with the children’s programs happening nearby. Staff families can pre-register and have their children participate in ALERT Cadets, Children’s Institute, Pre-Excel, and Commit at no charge. Contact Bethany at extension 2153 to register any children who will be attending.
We are also excited to have Brandon Keilen present the entire Affirming Biblical Foundations course (10 sessions) throughout the week. Brandon has been working to revitalize some key biblical truths originally presented in the Basic Seminar. We would like to encourage as many staff as possible to attend these sessions in order to provide valuable feedback to Brandon as he develops and refines the course to share these with a wider audience. (If you have your supervisor’s permission to attend during regular workday hours, you will be paid for those hours and need to use the appropriate T-Sheets code. Attendance at the evening sessions is entirely voluntary and will not be paid time.)

| Staff Meal Clarification Our staff birthday lunches are open to all staff, volunteers, and any family members visiting as a complimentary meal. Please be sure to RSVP through the link in Campus News for you and your extended family members.
Any other complimentary staff meals (currently awards and promotions, individual family fellowship lunches, and special or banquet event meals besides birthday lunch) are only complimentary to employees and their own dependents (any family member of an employee whose legal residence is in the employee's home, provided the employee is the head of house). Parents, siblings, and friends of employees are welcome to attend these staff meals with the employee, but the meal cost will be charged to the employee at the discounted staff rate during everyday meals, or the regular rate during special or banquet events.
Employees need to check out a guest card for their family/friends, which would charge these meals at the staff rate to the employee’s meal account during non-event times. During an event, meals for friends/family may be pre-purchased from Operations at the regular event rate (these meals would be available on their name tags.)
If these guests (friends/family of staff members) would like to purchase meals instead, they would be available at the regular guest rate.
If you have further questions, please contact Operations. This information has also been added to the Staff Meals document linked in the menu for future reference.

| Battalion Update | Capt. Vanderford 2nd Phase will move into High Angle Training this week. It is a fun, hands-on week but also very challenging. After some introductory content last week, L&C is into the meat of their coursework. A cold is going around the Battalion, so please pray for healthy immune systems. Also, pray that as the men each get well established in their routines, they will be able to benefit from them and not merely go through the motions of Battalion disciplines.

| Leadership Corner | Maj. Boulden "I define gossip as talking about someone or something with someone who isn’t part of the solution. It’s the way of the coward. We don’t have the guts to go talk to the person who is the offender, or the person who can go do something about it, so we just gossip.
It’s a cheap way to bond with other people in the company. It undermines your integrity as an individual. People may act like they enjoy it, but they’re not going to trust you. They’re not going to follow you for very long, and you’re going to lose the ability to influence those people." - Micheal Hyatt
Let's continue to work on ourselves and learn how to "speak the truth in love," instead of spending our time talking to people who have nothing to do with the problem.
