Syner (USMC) SPC Jesus Navarro (Army) From the Pastor's Desk Hello, friends: Welcome to summer! I hope that you all get a chance to take a step back from the normal routine of life and enjoy some rest and relaxation, in the next couple of months. It’s important that we care for and take time to simply “waste time” with those that we love. In the past we’ve hosted a summer movie series; we’re currently brainstorming the possibility of doing that again this year, however, because of time and planning the series may be postponed to late summer or it may not happen at all this year. Stay tuned! I’d like to really thank the VBS team and volunteers who helped make this year’s event a huge success! The children loved the energy, the music, the dancing, the skits and most all, getting to know a little bit more about their faith and their relationship with Jesus and the church. Campus Ministry is looking forward to hosting this year’s CMLI (Campus Ministry Leadership Institute) here at NMSU and Newman. We’re expecting close to 100 participants, from around the country, who will start arriving on June 16th. Please pray for the success of this event; thanks! Fr. Ray 1st Bn., 200th Infantry Brigade, NM National Guard and all others that you may hold dear to your heart!!!
