Every year over 21,000 young men and women from the western part of the US arrive in San Diego to begin training to become part of the United States Marine Corps. Over 1/3 of all enlisted Marines  begin their journey here. This 12 week boot camp experience has become a key gospel opportunity as we have been invited to share the gospel through the following:

• Lead 4-5 Spiritually Fit Ready to Serve classes every Sunday (300-500 recruits in each class)

• Teach a baptism class often with up to 150 Marines present 

• Help baptize Marines the week of their gradation.  

• Host outreaches and prayer space for the Drill Instructors

• Lead a midweek Bible Study for recruits injured during training
