Meal Cost Update
Due to increased food and operational costs for our kitchen, we need to increase meal prices. Starting September 1, staff meals will be $5.25/adult and $3.50/child. Guest meals will be $9.00/adult and $7.00/child. We are so grateful for our kitchen staff who continually provide such excellent meals and, as a tribute to their economy and diligence, we have not had a price increase since 2017. Thank you for your understanding as we all try to navigate rising costs across the nation.
Save the Date
Congratulations to Samuel Winkler and Anna Ferraro on their recent engagement! They will be getting married on September 24 in Jacksonville, IL. The whole campus is invited to their on-campus reception on Sunday, November 13, 3–6 PM. More details to come!
Battalion Update | Capt. Vanderford

Leadership Corner | Maj. Boulden
One thing that makes our work culture unique is that our coworkers are not just people we work with but also people with whom we have deep friendships and have shared many life experiences.

The story of Jesus healing the paralytic (Mark 2:1-5) is an excellent example of friendship. This story leads us to two questions: 1) Are we willing to embrace the transparency required to bring our mats into full view? 2) Are we willing to be the kind of friends who will drop everything, pick up our friend’s mats, and crash a roof to get them to Jesus?

Creating an authentic community involves key ingredients of weakness, acceptance, forgiveness, vulnerability, and trust. We must let go of image management and let people get to know the real us. And we must slow our lives down enough to look up and see opportunities to serve those around us. Often, someone has to be willing to go first. (Adapted from Kevin Harris)
