"Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might He increases strength.Isaiah 40:27–29 ESV

Battalion Update | SMaj. Hawley
The Leadership Class has had a fantastic trip in Washington D.C. learning about the history of the United States, studying our founding father’s, and the many leadership principles they personally exhibited. As they head into this upcoming week, they will be focusing on their public speaking class and preparing for their end-of-class presentations. They hope to be back on campus this Tuesday. 

ERT has now successfully completed their first week of dive training here in Miami. The guys are doing well in picking up the skills needed in this new, underwater world. They have had the opportunity to dive in several small lakes nearby, and on Friday, they dove in the ocean—which for most of the guys is a definite highlight of the trip.

Please continue to pray for the Battalion as the Leadership Class finishes their D.C. trip and as ERT spends another week in the water (mostly in the canals developing more skills and growing in their underwater confidence).
