On behalf of the Church Board and entire Congregation of First Christian Church, I would like to extend to you a word of congratulations and appreciation for your service to your country.
Our Country is a safer place because of your sacrifice, and so many others like you who have volunteered to serve in our Armed Forces for the purpose of protecting this land and the Freedom we now enjoy.
My name is Chaplain John Doe and I understand that you have been selected to serve with our brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces. I would like to say congratulations on your decision and subsequent selection.
I just wanted to take a moment to congratulate you on your recent retirement from military service. I pray that this next chapter of your life is filled with the love and comfort of family and friends.
The pain you are feeling at this time must be intense. Most likely, there are questions of “why” that are part of your thoughts even as you struggle to show your faith in God.
