Ministry Opportunity
Women in uniform are one of the fastest growing groups in the military, currently numbering over 180,000. They experience the daily stress and rigors of military life, separation, loneliness, fear, insecurities, etc. Many are seeking friendship and ways to cope with these issues. The temptation to seek answers and comfort apart from God is prevalent. Cadence is focusing on women in uniform and that will also be the focus of my ministry.

Stephanie’s Story
Life without Love is naught. My life is rich with love from God, family and friends. It was through Love that on 29 October 1987 I was born into God’s Christian family, and it was through love that on 6 July 1967 I was born into a military-German-American family. I spent most of my youth in the Kaiserslautern Military Community (KMC) and moved back to the United States as a junior in high school. I returned to the KMC from 1994-1998, during which time I worked as a civilian contractor for the U.S. Air Force and became intimately involved in the ministry of Cadence International. Through the love and support of the Cadence missionaries, I grew deeper in my love for the Lord and His people, especially my people, the military people. In 1998 when I left Germany to attend Multnomah Biblical Seminary, I hoped that one day the Lord would return me to my people to love and serve them. He has granted me the desire of my heart, and I will be returning to the KMC as a Cadence missionary.
