Group #: 2
Leader: Janice DeLong Location: Fort Worth First Day: Monday First Meeting: April 17 Last Meeting: June 5 Time: 7:00 PM Description: When we think about boot camp, we think about discipline, rigorous training, and hard work. Boot camp transforms a civilian into a soldier. So what basic training do we need to transform us to become soldiers of Christ to prepare us for what is to come in these last days? Instead of an information boot camp, let's make this a transformation boot camp, so we will be ready to face the war we're in—seen and unseen. So, welcome to Boot Camp for the Last Days! |
