I have been involved with Christian ministry part time on several occasions. I taught Sunday School in Juvenile Hall for five years, served as a High School Youth Pastor in the church we were members of for several years, was both licensed and ordained by that same church, served on various boards and committees, played music on a couple of worship teams, all of this while working full time for the City of Los Angeles fixing cars and raising a family, then I have performed a few weddings and spoke at several funerals, but the job I would find the hardest of all would be being a military chaplain and having to go to the door of someone's house and having to notify the next of kin about the demise of their husband,wife, son,or daughter while serving our Country. Definitely pray for our troops, their families, and all involved in the process of defending our great land. Pray for our leadership, that they wouldn't make a stupid decision for political purposes that costs someone their life. Eddie, thanks for your thoughtfulness in bringing this topic up and for your work with the VA.
