[QUOTE="SRL, post: 31738, member: 701"] I'm sorry that you're hurt by this. It won't help you now but I've learned that nothing is carved in granite until it's approved by the senior pastor. I'll tell you what I do based on common practice of our church. I would try and arrange the swearing in for right prior to the service, off site if needed. Then talk to the pastor and see if he wouldn't invite all the veterans participate in a time of prayer for your husband at the front of the church. Our church frequently sends off missionaries, service men or women, college students as they graduate, etc this way. It's a very nice memory and really makes the congregation feel a part of the send off. If you could work this out you could still have the family attend the swearing in and the service. [/QUOTE]
