The Church and the Veteran

Veterans miss the Brotherhood, a mutual agreement between the group … you love the group more than you love yourself. In this episode, Rick Norland offers help for Churches to help Veterans. Most people don’t understand what the Veteran and their family goes through. Churches need to be more aware of the needs of Veterans and their families … not only while the Veteran is deployed, but also when they return home. Veterans and their families are a whole group of people who are hurting that the Church can bring hope and healing to. Rick helps lay the foundation for Churches to become this Outreach Ministry for Veterans and their families.Operation HighGround identifies and implements strategies to help Veterans with housing, employment, education, and transportation. Rick Norling, Executive Director and Founder of Operation HighGround, has a strong desire to help Veterans come home, and get the necessary assistance they need to reintegrate into society. Rick produced a video series called ‘Passing the Baton’ to help Civic Organizations and the Church reach out to Veterans. Rick interviews Veterans and Military Chaplains on how we can best help our Veterans. Visit Operation HighGround
