Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Serving others is what I have done as a career. I have done it in the service to Country, Community and in the Church. It has been very fulfilling to see those that I have served, thrive and persevere. I wish to continue to serve God by sharing the Gospel of Jesus with others.
