In what I believe is the logical, natural extension of what God has shown Alicia and me in the last several months, God has brought a military ministry to our church. When my pastor mentioned it to me a few days ago, I was immediately grateful and excited at the same time! I went home from the meeting to talk it over with Alicia, and we set about putting together a questionnaire. I will write more about that in detail later in case any other churches could use the information.
We had eight people take part in our questionnaire and a total of 15 people sign up as interested persons! Counting Alicia and me, that makes 17 people! Really...Praise God for his goodness!
Alicia and I are going through the process of putting together what the ministry will entail as we work through the results of the questionnaire, but here are some things that will start soon:
1. Plan a fellowship event to get everyone together. That is one of the primary facets of our military ministry, so it iwll be something to start very soon.
2. Get an email chain going for military-related prayer requests.
These are the first of a series of very exciting steps. I can't wait to see what happens in the future! If you are willing, please pray for the military ministry at CEBC. As I've said before, I think the military can change the world, and we could use all of the prayer support we can get!
