Abstract

According to recent calculations, there are approximately 7,500 single parents in the United States Air Force alone , and nearly 27,000 within the four major military services. These are persons and families with special hurts and dreams, unique pressures, limitations, and demands, abundant abilities, and significant goals. These are persons in need of a cooperative ministry--both the receiving and the doing of ministry. Our arena is the wider community of faith as it exists in that special entity known to be our vocation, home , career, and lifestyle--the United States Air Force. I first became interested in the subject of singles and single parents during a tour as the religious education representative on the USAF Chaplain Resource Board. After a great deal of reading , searching through curricula, perusing in book stores and writing to publishers, it became evident that while there were numerous materials being written by and about single parents , little if anything was being printed from the perspective of resourcing for ministry.
