In May, EFCA Director of Chaplain Ministries, Dr. Roy Bebee was honored to participate in a weekend retreat for military members and their families who have sacrificed their best health while serving our nation. Ministering to those whose lives have been totally turned upside-down, the retreat hosted by Joni & Friends in San Antonio, TX, featured the testimony of Brian Birdwell (with wife Mel).
Birdwell a retired Lieutenant Colonel with the U.S. Army is a victim of the Pentagon 9/11 terrorist attack. Birdwell told his story of survival and of God’s sustaining grace after having received 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 60% of his body. The testimony to the Warrior’s was centered upon Christ’s sustainment and God’s healing. As Dr. Bebee commented, "I was humbled to be in these families' presence They do not need our pity. They need our gratitude. They need our support. They need our Lord."
Pray for our military members.
