The
2008 Spring Campaign Home Brigade chose the Greek word “Poiema” as
its Brigade name. It means workmanship. It was very
appropriate as they kept the home fire burning with the Spirit
of the Lord. The members were Cadets Kihyun Oh, Amy Park,
Minhee Lee, Jennifer Pyer, Lisa Barnes and Jennifer Masango and
Major Vickie Shiroma.

The
cadets ministered at various nearby locations including Seal Beach
and Santa Monica Corps. Many of the meetings were conducted
for senior citizens who graciously expressed their appreciation
for the cadets’ ministry. The Brigade provided Holy
Week services, Easter parties and visitations. The cadets
did a wonderful job conducting the meetings and, especially, relating
with the people.

The young generation was not forgotten.
A Saturday get-together provided fun and food for the children
and their cadet parents. The Easter egg hunt was definitely
a highlight for the children. |

The
week concluded with conducting an Easter Sunday service for the
residents of the Skyline Mobile Park for seniors. One of
the seniors sweetly shared how much she appreciated our willingness
to provide the meeting as she was unable to attend her regular
church due to physical limitations. There were others throughout
the week that expressed similar sentiments. It made all the
many days of planning, preparations and tiredness worth it all.
The officer and cadets were deeply blessed.
