Happy New Year from the ALERT Academy! 


As we launch into our 30th year of forging men, I want to ask you to pray for us. 


Pray: 

  • That God will receive the glory this coming year, and His will will be done

  • That men would be positively impacted and transformed by the power of the Gospel 

  • That God would send us the right men at the right time for training 

  • That our staff would find peace from the Prince of Peace in the midst of a busy year 

  • That we would have safety in all of our operations, training, and deployments 

  • That we would have the wisdom from above to lead well and to walk by the Spirit 

  • That we will be protected from the Enemy without, and our own sin from within

  • That He will supply all of our needs

We so desperately need your prayers in this coming year of training. As one of my favorite preachers, Alister Begg, said, "The best of men are just men at best.” We are just men and women, working together for the sake of the gospel. We need less of ourselves and more of Jesus this coming year, and every year. 


Stand strong,

Colonel Jesse Boulden | Unit 40

ALERT Commanding Officer
