Congratulations, summerfields!

My little sister Anneke and her husband Craig have graduated from the Salvation Army Officer Training College. They'll be formally commissioned/ordained tomorrow, and assigned to a church somewhere in the American West Territory, which encompasses everything from New Mexico to Alaska to Guam.


Cadets Craig and Anneke Summerfield - soon to be Lieutenants. Anneke was valedictorian and delivered an excellent address. Which we missed. Because we were stuck in Cleveland. Yay!


Anneke pinning a "silver star" on my mother, who gets one as the parent of an officer.


My father found the flag for his commissioning sessions ("Companions of Christ") in a room attached to the chapel.


Tonight we're meeting snobahr and chronovius for supper!

Ah, ok. When you used the word "pastor" in a later post I misinterpreted it as a statement of activity rather than an analogy of rank.
