Professional Excellence (Durfey)
[…]is Semper Paratus, “Always Ready.” Smaller than the New York City Police Department, the U.S. Coast Guard today must carry out economic, environmental, law enforcement and humanitarian missions while serving a key role in national security.

When they were ready, the […]
Speak my language
[…]courtship. Ten months later we were married—and two days later driving to Rob’s next Coast Guard duty station in Homer, Alaska. We were as committed to a Christ-centered marriage as any couple could be. Compatibility testing: check. Premarital mentoring: done. Stack of books on Christian marriage: read.
