Today our second-year cadets--so near their ordination through comissioning--sign their covenants of service in a day-long series of worship meetings to celebrate their dedication.
The Preparers of The Way sang songs, gave testimonies of their feelings about becoming officers, and signed a unique document in which they pledge their life's service to God. Their faces reflected excitement and accomplishment as two years of training, both on the field and intensive united classes in Moscow, come to an end...or to a new beginning!
Colonel Barry Pobjie, our Territorial Commander, recalled his early days of success and sacrifice as a young officer. Chief Secretary Lt. Colonel Bo Brekke recalled how he signed his application to become an officer by travelling to a darkened Divisional Headquarters, only to meet the Chief Secretary coming to building--at 10:30 at night!
Tomorrow is Commissioning--13 new Captains on the planet, and in God's Kingdom.
