This special email came into HQs today; "Hello and thank you for what you are doing. I would like to have a free Bible sent to my little brother if possible. You have changed my life with this Bible. I am learning so much and building my faith in the Lord because of the Bible that I got from my Chaplain at Fort Jackson. This is my first time reading the NLT version of the holy Bible and I LOVE it! I can actually understand the Bible the way that I believe God meant for me to. I have grown so much in my prayer life and I am reading the Bible everyday. I also appreciated the note on the inside from "Kristen". Every now and then I go back and read it when I'm missing home, or feeling stressed out from the rigors of being a new soldier! I started training and broke my ankle, the week before I was scheduled to graduate. I'm still at Fort Jackson rehabbing my ankle before I can move on to OCS. I've been spending a great deal of that time reading and meditating on the word of God, and I want to really thank the Chaplain Corps for the good work that they are doing! No matter what, I know that the Lord is working things out for my good. That is now one of my favorite verses (Romans 8:28, I am so shocked that I can actually commit verses to memory now at the age of 27). God bless you and all of your efforts!!! Peace, SPC L. H." To God be the glory, for the things He hath done!

Re: This Wonderful email Came In To HQs This MorningThis is so great. It's always nice to hear that your efforts are appreciated. It's even better to hear that our soldiers are able to dive deeper into the Word of God because of it. Keep doing what you're doing OW! God Bless!
