Comments for Chaplain Kay http://chaplainkay.wordpress.com Serving God as a United States Army Chaplain Wed, 05 Aug 2009 04:10:18 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 Comment on About by Robert Stroud http://chaplainkay.wordpress.com/about/#comment-601 Robert Stroud Wed, 05 Aug 2009 04:10:18 +0000 #comment-601 Some chaplains will remember the Military Chaplains Review, which once provided a forum for reporting and reflection related to the vocation of the military chaplaincy. Other publications, such as service-specific items and The Military Chaplain (of the Military Chaplains Association) are excellent . . . but they do not share the same scope as did MCR. Good news--a new ejournal will begin publication this fall with a vision for addressing this need. Curtana † Sword of Mercy will provide a home for preserving the history of the chaplaincy, sharing ministry experiences and insights, and discussing challenging issues of import to clergy serving in the armed forces. You can read more, and "subscribe" to the journal, at http://justwar101.com/journal/. Call for manuscripts: If you feel inspired, get to that keyboard now and draft a manuscript to be considered for publication in the inaugural issue. Since the journal will be released in September, the deadline for submissions is 31 August. Details are available online, but all genres will be considered, and 500 to 2000 words is a safe ballpark for articles. Please spread the word about the Curtana. We are especially eager to have chaplain assistants and international chaplains learn about the journal. And, although we will focus on matters of interest to the chaplaincy, everyone interested in the interplay between the military and religion will be potential readers of the publication.

One example was that He brought you into my life right at the time when a young person has to decide what to do and how to be, and I'm thankful that you were to help mold me into the Christian I am today. I am proud to have you in my family. God bless you. God has used you in so many ways that you aren’t even aware of.

I was hoping to see some more current info on where you are and what group you are serving. I am in the process to become an Army chaplain and, Lord willing, will be going to chaplain school in January. After reading your blog while you were there, I had some questions. What kind of stuff do you recommend that I take? Did you take a notebook PC with you? What kind of spare time did you have? Were the studies difficult at all? You mentioned that your family moved. Did they move to the Ft. Jackson area? Did you work on your running conditioning before you went? Thanks for any help, Corey kaaina563@msn.com Thank you for the blog.

Very nicely done and so informative. I am currently in the process of applying. Most of the requirements are done, just waiting for my endorser to issue the final endorsement papers - Fr.
