In a Church Packed with Soldiers

Christmas activities provided plenty of opportunities for our Scripture Readers to build relationships with service personnel. Troops heard God’s Word during services and Scripture Readers can have follow-up conversations about what was heard and sung.

It was quite something to see soldiers marching through the streets to go to church for the carol service.

ASR Paul Curd

God’s Word was read in a church packed with soldiers for the Christmas service. I can now follow up and ask them, ‘What did you think about what was read?’

ASR Paul Somerville

Christmas events at the station went well; God’s Word was read, Jesus Christ proclaimed and prayers were offered, praise God.

ASR Steven Dougherty

Attendance at the carol service was really good and they heard the gospel message.

ASR Patrick Steen
