Jocelyn — Wow! This looks great… even an idea I had, but my “time was up” in the Navy/military service and the Lord led me/us back into a parish ministry situation (please see my email to you). I’d love to get your ideas about my possible writing to address/help other “need” areas of our military personnel and their families. I’d love to get your book, and possibly endorse it for you. May the Lord Jesus Christ continue to lead you and bless you plus minister to others through your writing! Yours in Christ, Bill (& Eathel) Weimer
