Prayer and Fasting
Thursday, July 8 will be our monthly day of prayer and fasting for our staff and ministries. Please pray for the closing time with Quest families and young men tomorrow, Sound Foundations beginning this weekend, our campus well project, and especially for the Village Board of Trustees meeting on Tuesday, July 13 next week.

| Quest Banquet
Quest Banquet will begin at 5:30 in the Dining Room. Quest students will start on the risers, receive their completion packets and be dismissed to sit with their families. Dinner will be served around 5:45. Testimonies and Quest Slideshow will happen during dinner. Sports to follow in the Gym and on the Soccer Field from 7–11 PM. |
| Battalion Welcome
This Sunday, from 7–8 PM, all staff are invited to meet in the Dining Room for some fun activities and a chance to greet the battalion and welcome them back to campus. We will have some fun activities, some light snacks, and some free time to just catch up. Hope you can join us!

| Stewardship Project
Six months ago in January 2021, we discussed the important issue of stewardship and our personal and corporate responsibilities with all the Lord has given to us. Using passages from Luke 19:12-27 and Matthew 25:14-30, a challenge was given to each one to prayerfully ask the Lord what He would have us do along with a simple project with $100 representing “talents.” Please let us know if you have any stories or examples on how the Lord has allowed you to personally be involved in any increase, spiritually most importantly, or otherwise, in your stewardship in 2021.
As a general financial report for the first five months from January to May 2021, we have trended for both IBLP and IAA in a positive direction by reducing expenses and observing increased revenue. Much yet needs to take place in each of these final six months of the year, but your continued awareness and dependence on the Lord seem to be making a difference. Please pray that the Lord will guide in each decision regarding our personal stewardship and fruitfulness in our ministries at large.

| On Campus Extension Changes
ALERT has made some shifts in job responsibilities, so we have changed some of the staff's on-campus extensions as well. Samuel Winkler's responsibilities are recruiting, public relations, alumni relations, and directing Quest. Phillip Vanderford is responsible for overseeing the battalion (2nd and 3rd phases) and coordinating with the ALERT Training instructors.
Extension updates:
Phillip Vanderford - 2232
Samuel Winkler - 2725 (Phillip's old number)

| Quest Update
We are wrapping up our time with the Quest students. Please pray that the guys would remember what they learned during their time at Quest and that they would have lasting change in their lives rather than just temporary behavior modifications.
|
| Battalion Update
Things are coming together well for the upcoming training quarter. The students are scheduled to arrive on Saturday, 7/10, and classes will begin on Monday. Training scheduled for this quarter is CST, Flight, L&C, Tech Rescue, and 2nd Phase.
