Motzer Enlists for Air Force Chaplain Post
Rev. Paul Motzer, pastor at Energy and Hurst, leaves his civilian churches to report to San Antonio for five weeks of chaplain training. He will serve at Hamilton Air Force Base near San Francisco and says the move aims to reach people outside traditional church structures. He expects challenges from a changing base congregation and counseling needs of shifting military personnel. His enlistment runs three years with possible career, and his wife and three children will join later.
