Infantry Training

One of the unique roles that I have as a chaplain in the Army is that I am asked to participate in character and leadership training for soldiers. On Saturday I made the long drive out to Cultana (between Pt Augusta and Whyalla) to conduct sessions with a group of new infantrymen.

On Saturday we spoke about self respect, the importance of belief systems and how to make an ethical decision. Amid a broad spectrum of life stories and personal circumstances these soldiers come together, and it is amazing to be able to talk about 'deeper things' in such a setting.

This is another way that our Corps is bearing God's light to the world. It is among the many ways that we collectively touch our world for the Kingdom's sake.
