  • The best ideas sometimes come from humble beginnings. During his studies at Abilene Christian University’s Graduate School of Theology, Curtis Alexander King wrote a research paper in which he described ways to improve information and resource sharing to persons who were choosing to make a home for themselves in Abilene, Texas, following incarceration. As a minister and as a friend of several returning citizens, King had developed a great appreciation for the challenges that individuals often face attempting to reacclimate to society after their release. For well over a year, no action was taken, but the thought of finding a way to make the “assignment” a reality remained in his heart, and he eventually began reaching out to like-minded people in the Abilene area and beyond who would be interested in collaborating on improving the reentry experience in the Big Country.
  • The group is made up of families who have lost a loved one while they served in the Armed Forces. Klemen says they strive to allow the flow of grace to increase family members' ability to forgive reality for being what it is and not what they'd like it to be. They work to carry on the legacy of loved ones by incorporating the values and principles they served: Country Loyalty Duty Respect Selfless Service Honor Integrity Personal Courage Sacrifice. Group members work to emulate the Warrior Ethos: I Will Always Place The Mission First I Will Not Accept Defeat I Will Never Quit I Will Never Leave a Fallen Comrade. By supporting each other and the community to honor all past, present, and future military members, they commit to be there for each other in the best and worst of times and say they find they are truly Stronger Together.
