Buddy Boxes for our soldiers

Kevin with John and Sue. 
For those of you who don't know Kevin Bell, let me introduce him to you.  Kevin and his family use to live in Leominster and attended Leominster Assembly of God before they moved to Florida.   God called Kevin to attend Valley Forge Christian College. After graduation, he enlisted in the U.S. Army where he serves as a chaplain.   In December, Kevin was deployed to Iraq to serve our country and minister to the men and women serving abroad. 


Many of you remember that when Kim and Chip's son, Doug, was deployed we sent boxes filled with supplies and treats to the soldiers in Doug's unit.  We have decided that we will once again start filling boxes and send them to Kevin.  Kevin will make sure that any soldier who is in need will receive a "Buddy Box".   This is a way of showing our support for those brave men and women who give selflessly of themselves to protect our freedom.

Please pray for Kevin and all our soldiers!!!  If you want to follow Kevin's "adventures" in Iraq, we have added a link on the side to his blog.

As we serve...we remain

  1. Seeing Kevin's rank in these photos, and the fact that he apparently has a weapon slung on his shoulder, he is probably a chaplain assistant, not a chaplain. Nevertheless, thanks for supporting Kevin and other Soldiers during their deployments!
