LDS Chaplain Promoted!

Chaplain Harms's wife, Heidi made this cake commemorating  his promotion to Major

Chaplain Harms and his Proud Family!
 In all our adventures, one of our favorites is participating with the LDS Chaplains stationed here at Fort Bliss, Texas.
There are two LDS Chaplains currently serving here.  There are quite a few Chaplains at Fort Bliss and we are still trying to meet the ones that are not LDS.  We enjoy Chaplain Harms (Major) and Chaplain Coleman (Major) and we have been blessed by their words of wisdom as they speak regularly at McGregor Range Sacrament Meetings to National Guard and Reserve soldiers that come to Fort Bliss for training prior to deployment.  These men believe in families.  Chaplain Harms has 6 children and Chaplain Coleman has 10 children and their sweetheart wives are amazing!!!

We've enjoyed meeting their children who by the way, are quite resilient. We were honored to be invited to attend his promotion ceremony.  Chaplain Harms has received orders for Permanent Change of Station (PCS) to Fort Lewis, Washington with a combat infantry brigade.  Our understanding is this is quite a feather in his cap for a new Major.  We are sad to see them go but we are happy for their new adventure.
