A huge thank you to our ladies from PWOC for giving the chapel some love in time for Holy Week and Easter. Kitchens were scrubbed, closets were gone through, the infant room behind the sanctuary was refreshed, and Michelle Egas (pictured) graced us with her artistic skills to make our office space a little more welcoming.

Thank you PWOC!

The Army is inherently diverse and needs assessment help us ensure resources, facilities, and programs reflect our community’s actual spiritual landscape rather than assumptions. It upholds religious freedom by ensuring no one is overlooked whether attending weekly services, practicing privately in the barracks, belonging to a faith that very few people hold, or having no faith.

The more voices included, the better the RSO can advocate for time, space, personnel, and programs that truly serve Soldiers and their families.

Please take a few minutes to help us build a stronger and more resilient Army community.

This evening begins Ramadan, a monthlong observance when Muslims strengthen their faith and practice self-discipline. The fast from dawn to sunset is a time for reflection and spiritual focus, reminding believers of patience, self-discipline, and the needs of those less fortunate.

This month also honors the moment when the Qur’an was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, guiding the faithful in their daily lives. “O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you, as it was for those before you, that you may attain righteousness” (Qur’an 2:183). Wishing all who observe a peaceful Ramadan.

Join The Grove: An Earth-based Spirituality Community for our Capricorn New Moon gathering—a ritual of gentle cleansing and supportive rest.

Under this earthy moon, we'll explore what it means to lay down our burdens with tenderness, and discover how what we release becomes the foundation for what emerges.

This circle invites you to remember: rest is not the absence of strength. It is the ground from which strength grows.

Come as you are. Be held. Be earth.

Chag Urim Sameach! Tonight, we mark the first night of Hanukkah, celebrating light, hope, and perseverance. May the glow of the menorah remind us that resilience and faith can bring hope even in the darkest moments.

Wishing all who celebrate a blessed and meaningful Festival of Lights.
