Administration and staff send daily encouragement to officers of the West

Listen to this article

From Dec.1 until Christmas, members of Territorial Headquarters and the College for Officer Training at Crestmont sent a daily video of encouragement and promise of prayer to officers in the field via email.  

“We want you to know that we are going to be praying for you this Christmas,” said Territorial Secretary for Women’s Ministries Colonel Colleen Riley, whose video message kicked off the video campaign. “So each day, from December 1-24, you’ll receive a short video from one of us here, just letting you know that we’re thinking of you, we’re praying for you, particularly in specific areas, and today we want you to know that we’re praying for your overall Christmas efforts.”

In case you missed the messages, we’ve compiled them for you here:

 

Dec. 1: Colonel Colleen Riley

“Today we just want you to know that we’re praying for your overall Christmas efforts. We pray that God will bless you. That he will give you the funds that you need so that you can serve those in the most need this year.”

 

Dec. 2: Territorial Director for Youth Ministries Jim Sparks

“We’re praying for you. We’re praying for your families, and more specifically, the territorial youth department will be praying for your kids.”

 

Dec. 4: Director of Education Major Stacy Cross

“Thank you for being salt to people who have lost their taste for what is holy and pure and true. Thank you for being light to souls who are just shadows of what God created them to be today.”

 

Dec. 5: Assistant Chief Secretary Lt. Col. Vic Doughty

“Today we focus our thoughts and prayers on those who come to us for help during the holidays. We pray that their physical needs would be met and their emotional and spiritual needs as well.”
