What People are Saying

“This ministry is part of a broader military outreach led by Michael Morabe, a CRU missionary and dear friend, who has opened doors for Lutherans with a heart for the military to bring the hope of Christ across San Diego’s bases.” Rev. Dr. Laerte Tardelli Voss, Missionary Director, Lutheran Mission Society San Diego

“I’ve been volunteering at MCRD under Michael’s leadership for almost 12 months praying with boot camp recruits and Marines on Sunday mornings. Michael’s leadership, commitment to deliver excellence and Christ-centered focus is hands-down “THE” best I’ve encountered in any setting, workplace or otherwise. His humility and presence draws you in…and, his dedication to doing Kingdom work won’t let you go. I’m honored to be part of his team!” Janet, MCRD Volunteer

“Chaplain Mike, the formal leader of the study, trusts Mark deeply. That trust has been earned through consistency, humility, and careful pastoral sensitivity. Together, they create a rhythm of prayer, Scripture, conversation, and quiet mentoring—life-changing not through spectacle, but through faithfulness.” From an article about Deacon Mark
