Dear Friends,

It's official, since the judge ruled against me this week, I'm not only being fired by the Navy, my wife and dog and I just received an eviction notice from military housing, to vacate by 31 Jan 07. This fight cost me everything. My career is over, my family is now homeless, we've lost a million dollar pension, but Congress agreed with me and rescinded the Navy policy, so chaplains are free again to pray in Jesus name. My sacrifice purchased their freedom. My conscience is clear, the fight was worth it, and I'd do it all again. Because of my sacrifice other chaplains will have the liberty I was denied.Praise be to God, in Jesus name.
