Heralds of the Good News Session

 

Christopher Aird
BACKGROUND: I was born in Wisconsin and grew up in The Salvation Army, eventually working as the corps assistant at Phoenix Citadel Corps.
CHILDREN’S NAMES: Kayla, age 7, Ryan, age 5, twins Jenna and Rebecca, age 2
HOME CORPS: Phoenix Citadel, Ariz., Southwest Division
GENERATION SALVATIONIST: 3rd
SIGNIFICANCE OF COMMISSIONING:
I believe that God has been calling me to be a Salvation Army officer for the past 15 years. The importance I find in being commissioned is that I am being obedient to the Lord and in the way he wants me to live. This also means that I am placing all my trust in him, removing my own desires for my life and placing them in the Lord’s hands.

Lisa Aird
BACKGROUND: I was born in Phoenix, Arizona, and became involved with the Army over four years ago.
CHILDREN’S NAMES: Kayla, age 7, Ryan, age 5, twins Jenna and Rebecca, age 2
HOME CORPS; Phoenix Citadel, Ariz., Southwest Division
GENERATION
SALVATIONIST: 1st
SIGNIFICANCE OF
COMMISSIONING:
When I entered Crestmont, I knew this was what God was asking me to do. Now that commissioning is here, I feel blessed. His guidance and direction over the last two years is overwhelming. I have grown spiritually, been stretched and learned a lot. To know my husband and children are by my side on that day—all of us to enter ministry together—is a blessing.

Jose Martinez
BACKGROUND: I was born in Tijuana, Mexico and moved to America in 1993.
CHILDREN’S NAMES: Andres, age 20, Samuel, age 15, Jose Jacob, age 4
HOME CORPS: Long Beach Temple, Calif., Southern
California Division
GENERATION SALVATIONIST: 1st
SIGNIFICANCE OF COMMISSIONING:
I never thought I would be able to attend the training college because of my limited English skills. God helped me to overcome the language barrier that I thought was impossible, and now I will serve the Lord in two languages.

Martina Martinez
BACKGROUND: I was born in Tijuana, Mexico and at the age of 5 moved to California where I attended first through eighth grades and then returned to Mexico.
CHILDREN’S NAMES: Andres, age 20, Samuel, age 15, Jose Jacob, age 4
HOME CORPS: Long Beach Temple, Calif., Southern California Division
GENERATION SALVATIONIST: 1st
SIGNIFICANCE OF COMMISSIONING:
For me commissioning is like a wedding day where I will receive a special blessing to carry on God’s work. I don’t know what lies ahead, but I want to respond faithfully to the calling he has put on my heart.
