MEMORIAL SERVICES SCHEDULED FOR SENIOR CHAPLAIN LES PALMER


A Great leader and servant has left us a legacy.

Chaplain Les, one of our lead Master trainers, served on the IFOC Board of Directors  as well as on his church staff as a pastor and was the Corps Commander in Albuquerque. He was instrumental in training and directing a large number of Chaplains to operate and serve in the community reaching out to many, and eventually stretched out to serve several other parts of the state, nation and world.

After working as a disaster Chaplain world wide, and serving with the Billy Graham Rapid Response Teams, He was instrumental in establishing an IFOC disaster on-call corps nationwide.

Chaplain Les has left us a great legacy, and we will tremendously miss him.

Please pray for his family and those who served with him.
