Glen Ridge Congregational Church Minister Returns from 10-day Tour of Duty in Iraq
The Reverend Dr. Joseph David Stinson, minister of the Glen Ridge Congregational Church, a Rear Admiral in the United States Navy Chaplain Corps, left on December 1, 2008 for a 10-day tour of duty visiting troops in Iraq. RDML Stinson landed in Kuwait City where there is a program through which all Navy and Marine personnel transition into and out of Iraq. He then traveled to Al-Anbar province where he visited with Marines and their chaplains at the base. During his visit, RDML Stinson had the opportunity to preach at Sunday services to Marines serving in what has been one of the most dangerous regions in the Iraqi war.
Dr. Stinson will discuss his experiences in Iraq and the interesting perspectives he brings as a military chaplain and a minister to our Glen Ridge community. The discussion will take place on Sunday, January 4th after the 10:15 morning service, about 11:30 a.m. and is open to everyone.
