Moreland Gap Shelter 1 15       “Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne  will shelter them with his presence.       16       They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore;  the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.       17       For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of  living water,            and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.

We powered through meadows, along creeks with  wildflowe...

Final Out!

Well, after 18 months on station at FT Jackson the mission of the 2-485th Unit Ministry team has come to an end. We have seen almost 5000 new soldiers some through here. There have been 30 full 9 week training cycles.

When you are a little guy its always comforting to know that Dad is within reach. Dad's are strong. Dad's have experience. Dad's have been there. Dad's are smart. On a stormy night it was good to know Dad was down the hall with all his strength. My son Jack hates going outside in the dark and always says, "Will you come with me?" He thinks I'm bulletproof! We never really have to lose that you know. And even if you never had that kind of dad, that Dad is available to us all. The prophet Malachi said, " Have we not all  one Father? Has not one God created us?" and Paul said in 1 Corinthians 1:3 in his opening statements "  Grace to you and peace...
