I have to say that I agree with this whole heartedly because especially in
my neighborhood, some of the boys don't have the resources available to be
able to do this. The one boy I have in mind for JLTC, may have the
resources, but it would mean more to him if we as the outpost sent him
instead of his folks. Don't get me wrong, I will no doubt need his folks
support and I believe this particular young man can do it. But some of the
others, well, patience and perseverance will certainly come into play here.
Our church is building a new building and we plan on expanding to at least 3
times the size we are now. If we need a bus ministry, I'm a commercially
licensed driver with all of the correct endorsements, I'll help with that
too. But I would love to give any boy a scholarship for JLTC because that
shows me that he wants to take the time to put effort forth in Rangers and
make a difference. What we do in Rangers has spiritual significance and it
can affect both the physical world, but also the spiritual world too as we
grow and gain our understanding of the Lord and as our relationship develops.
Blessings,
Iron Mike
