Kellen's meeting with the OCS leaders went very well. Everyone respected his decision to pursue becoming a chaplain and think it suits his personality very well. He got to meet one-on-one with the chaplain there. It was insightful for him to get an inside point of view and some knowledge about what to expect so far as the process goes.For now, we're praying and learning all we can about the process, and knowing what's required, etc. It looks like our next steps are finding a seminary, and becoming "members" of our church and really getting involved there, talking to the pastor about the process, etc, since an endorsement from him is required.
It's been great already to have Kellen home. He's more relaxed than I've seen him in the last months- my husband is back. So far we're relaxing and eating junk food :) That will end on Monday. Back to healthy food, and work for me.
We appreciate you keeping us in your prayers, we'll let you know as things develop.
