It has been a great start to the semester with 27 guys back for ERT. I’m very thankful for the great leadership team God has brought together in the ALERT Program – individuals that have a heart for the Lord and for seeing men deepen their walk with Him. Pray for them as you think of the ministry here.
This semester we’ve added a daily noon prayer time where we focus on a different aspect of prayer and spend time as a group, bringing praise and requests before Him. We’ve also added a condensed leadership course taught by Capt. Jesse Boulden as part of second phase that we think will be valuable for all to have as part of their portfolio.
This Friday night is our annual Snake Walk event. If you live within reasonable driving distance come join us! We’ll house you Friday night at no cost and provide free transportation to an area hospital if needed as a token of our appreciation.
For future planning, we have EMT, Tech Rescue, Aquatics, Flight, Basic Training Cadre and Mobile Response Team (MRT) scheduled for our spring semester. If you are interested in returning for any of these, give us a call or you may register here.
A reminder about our next Regional Alumni Retreat: March 30-April 1 (Friday night through Sunday morning) to be held in Waynesburg, PA. I cannot emphasize enough the need for us to come together as men for an event like this. It’s not only great fellowship in a beautiful setting but more importantly we’ll be focusing on the addictive nature of pornography and how to begin the process of getting free. The Conquer Series video material will again be our curriculum. This material has been life changing not only for those that are struggling with porn addiction but is a great resource for those of you looking for material to share with your sons or in your local church men’s group. For a preview go to conquerseries.com and check it out. Let’s have a great response from guys in Pennsylvania and Ohio (although anyone is welcome to attend.) If you want to bring dad or brother they are welcome as well. Feel free to call me for more specifics at 903-714-3481.
Till next time,
