SUBMITTED!

When my daughter asked me several weeks ago when I would be finished with this book, I simply replied.."When God is done providing for the book." Well, we're now complete. It's done and turned in to the publisher as of today!
I covet your prayers for the ministry this book will provide for our military families, and all Americans who value the sacrifices made on our behalf in wars past and present. I pray I have honored both our armed forces and God in its making. May this book spark a revival of Christian patriotism in the hearts of all who venture into its pages.
A portion of the proceeds from the STF series of books will be donated to Military Missions, a Christian military support organization found at www.militarymissionsonline.com. Every book you purchase will also help provide care packages to our troops! Send this link to your friends and family and help support our soldiers...
I'll keep you posted on the progress of the book's production. I look for it to be released in June or early July. Wouldn't it be neat to have it out by July 4th??? :)
I hope you will be blessed by the stories by over 30 contributors!! I know I have been... and I now have many new friends.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
**VOLUME II's subtitle will be Christian Military Moms in Action! If you are a Christian military mom and would like to contribute a testimony for this volume of Secure the Fort, EMAIL ME AT : Lucy@allgloryishis.com!
**VOLUME III will focus on stories of faith by our military chaplains. If you have stories you'd like to submit for this volume, please email me at the above address!

God is working!

The submissions keep coming, and I am continually blessed! Keep praying for a publisher. I submitted queries to four Christian literary agencies this week. One emailed back and asked for the full book proposal, which was sent today. I was very encouraged by this! Our nation needs the message found in Secure the Fort...praying for the means to get it out there.
If you are new to this blog, read further down for submission details.
I'll keep you posted on our progress!

P.S. I submitted "State Needs Church" on gather.com and did that article ever generate conversation. I was called an idiot, cursed, called a religious fanatic, etc. If interested, go to www.gather.com and do a search on the topic of "separation of church and state." Keep looking. It's on there!

Praise!

I have several praises to report re: Secure the Fort's progression!

1. I now have my Coast Guard contact, a chaplain in the Great Lakes Region.

2. I have emailed Blue Star Moms military support groups nation wide about the possibility of reading devotions out of the book in their meetings. I am already receiving very positive feedback on this, and now have groups in Texas and California desiring to use them.

3. I have a Gideon contact looking up military testimonies regarding the New Testaments the Gideons provide to new recruits.

4. I have someone voluntarily proofreading/checking for grammar.

5. I have two authors writing endorsements.

Wow, God has blessed me greatly in all this! I'll keep you up to date on what happens next.
Keep watching...all glory is HIS!
