Hi all,
Thanks for the posts. It is really inspiring to hear why some of us are
Commanders in Rangers. I knew there would be some that were in Rangers
since they were Straight Arrows, and others that have only been in
Rangers for a few years. Again, Thank you all who shared with me and the
others on Rangernet. You are truely a blessing to the boys and to the
Organization, whether you are told it or not.
The reason why I asked, "Why are we here?" is because last Sunday, our
Sr. Commander resigned as a commander in Rangers. His feeling were, "our
outpost is not being supported by the parents or the church, and maybe
there is some one who can do a better job than I can." I can only tell
you how hurt I was to hear my Sr. Commander, and friend say this. I
talked to him after church Sunday to find out why he was giving up, and
that is the answer I received. We talked about how we as commander have
changed some, if not all of our boys lives in one way or another. But, he
still thinks he is not doing a good enough job. I have a hard time
accepting this commanders resignation, (and really don't accept it).
This commander came from a well known and sucessful outpost in his area.
With him he brought almost over 10 years of experience. I respect my Sr.
Commander because of the experience and the ideas he brought into our
outpost. I felt our outpost was just starting to turn around and has the
potential, (in my opinion they already are) the best outpost in San Diego
County.
Brothers, please pray for our Sr. Commander and our outpost. Our Sr.
Commander needs to be lifted up and encouraged, more than I my self can
do. Since He resigned, I have not stopped praying for him.
Cmdr. Tony Bredow
Outpost 238
