First Baptist Church was approached by Captain Ron Fisher, Chaplain, U.S. Army, with a proposal to have First Baptist Church adopt Delta Company while they are deployed to Iraq. Delta Company is part of the U.S. Army, 10th Mountain, 2nd Battalion, 4th Infantry Regiment based at Ft. Polk, Louisiana and currently serving in Iraq.

Chaplain Fisher and his wife Amy were members at First Baptist from 2002-2003 at which time he took an associate pastor position with a church in California. It was there that Ron felt led to serve God in the military. When he heard they would be deployed to Iraq he set in motion an idea to ask churches to adopt a company of soldiers for 15 months. He has a great heart for his men (warriors as he calls them) and wants to make sure they are encouraged through prayer, cards/letters and care packages.

Supporting this Company is not political . . . it’s giving our soldiers something from home; and just the thought that someone cares other than their families/friends can help keep them strong. If you’ve been there then you know just how much a letter or card of encouragement from homes can mean to a soldier.
