Corvallis, MT – The Christian Veterans of the
Bitterroot are a group made up of followers of Jesus Christ who have served in
the military. If you are a believer in Jesus Christ and a veteran, then you
have a place in this group. Our motto is “give back with love,” and our goal is
to help fellow veterans, their families and the local community through prayer
and work. We want all Christians, particularly veterans, to know that they are
not alone and we and others are here to help them.
We believe it is time for local Christians to stand up
and show solidarity with fellow Christians here and around the world. The
Christian Veterans of the Bitterroot are asking all Christians in the
Bitterroot Valley to “March for Jesus Christ” on Holy Saturday, April 15, 2017.
The march will start at 6:45 a.m. at the Set Free
Christian Fellowship Church in Lolo, Montana. We will proceed south along the
U.S. Highway 93 pedestrian path to the Angler’s Roost Bridge
south of Hamilton.
Walk 1 mile, 3 miles, 20 miles or the entire 40 miles
to the bridge.
We are asking all of the Bitterroot Valley Churches to
participate by walking a three mile section as a group. If you can’t walk it,
then provide a station with water, power bars, drinks, etc., to help those who
are walking. Last year we had churches, organizations, families and individuals
carry The Cross in three mile increments from Hamilton to Lolo. We still need
cross bearers for this year’s march.
You don’t need to be a veteran to participate in the
march. Please pray for those planning this great event.
