Go home to your people and report to them what wonderful things the LORD has done for you, and how He has had mercy on you.  Mark 5:19
It has been fourteen years since we retired from the Air Force.  During that time we've lead a fairly typical lifestyle—working, raising a family, church activities, and community involvement. Through it all we never really felt at home in our civilian community. We weren't able to connect with people on the same level as we did while on active duty. We missed our military family deeply.

In 2002 God provided us the opportunity to return to our "family." While traveling through Germany to show our adult children where they were born, God sopke to us about the spiritual needs of our men and women serving overseas. He reminded us of our own needs for mature Christian fellowship while we were stationed on foreign soil, and placed a burden on our hearts for those in similar situations.

We contacted the Navigators and, through a series of miraculous encounters that only God could orchestrate, here we are! We consider Mark 5:19 our calling verse. We have returned to our family to tell them what great things the LORD has done, and how He has shown mercy on us. We are home among our people and we are excited for what God has in store for us as we share Jesus with our military family
