Joe was just appointed as Protestant Lay Leader on his submarine, the USS Connecticut!There is no chaplain on board the submarine, so it is the responsibility of one of the crew members to organize a service on Sundays.
In this role he is responsible for planning and leading (or finding someone else to lead) Sunday services while the sub is out to sea. We are both excited about this ministry opportunity and ask for your prayers for Joe as he strives to encourage and challenge the men in their walks with Christ.
On a related note, Joe just returned from a month at sea on June 24! Thankfully, he got home in time to see my parents for the last 3 days of their visit. I'm glad to have him home!
