I did not take this photo, but as I still have to review and edit the video- I thought I'd post it here.
"At Friday evening's Mass (of the International convocation), Archbishop Doug Woodall introduced Fr. Rian Adams as the newest Charismatic Episcopal Church priest to be selected for active duty in the United States Army. Army Chaplain Major (Fr) Jonathan Landon, another CEC priest serving on active duty, swore Fr. Adams in as a First Lieutenant in the Army Chaplain Corps in front of over a thousand worshipers at the concluding convocation service.
Fr. Adams is a recent Master of Divinity graduate of Wesley Biblical Seminary in Jackson, MS. He and his wife Amber are from Altha, FL..
Fr. Adams was ordained to the Diaconate and Priesthood recently by Bishop David Epps on behalf of Archbishop Woodall at Christ the King CEC in Sharpsburg, GA.
Fr. Adams will report for active duty in mid September at the Army Chaplain’s School at Ft. Jackson, SC."
