Missouri church celebrates local moms

Webb City, Missouri

(9 May, KOAM News NowWebb City’s Church of the Nazarene got into the Mother’s Day spirit Sunday by kicking things off with a family portrait session.

But since this special day is all about mom, there were plenty of individual photos of the kids taken too.

One local mom and church member tells KOAM why those individual photos of her children are so precious to her.

“I like the group photos but I also like the individual ones because (my kids) are older now so I don’t get the individual pictures as much anymore because they’re always somewhere else,” said Traci Henson.

Nazarene Air-Force Chaplain aids Serbian armed forces in spiritual training

Fairborn, Ohio

(21 May, WPAFB News) Ohio Guard leaders also visit Serbia as part of a CAPSTONE event for culminating discussions about the partnership’s accomplishments and future plans.

The Guard pulled 88 ABW chaplains into the most recent event, tightening ties with Serbia even further through a total force collaboration focused on caring for personnel spiritually.

“Serbia, for many years through communism, did not have a chaplaincy as a part of their armed forces,” said Col. Daniel Burris, Ohio National Guard state chaplain. “And so when they brought the chaplaincy back, it gave us a great opportunity to help them develop their chaplaincy as a nation and as a military and to develop a relationship. The important thing is the relationship that we have together with this European nation.”
