Archi’s Acres Guides Returning Veterans Toward Business Success
I’m Alex Villarreal with the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com | http://facebook.com/voalearningenglish
For American soldiers, the move from the military to civilian life is not always easy. Military veterans have a thirty-five percent unemployment rate. This is more than three times the national average. And an estimated one hundred thousand veterans are homeless. The federal government and private organizations offer programs to help veterans. One private program is called Archi’s Acres. It is on a two hectare farm in southern California.Marine Sergeant Colin Archipley returned to the United States after serving three tours of duty in Iraq. He and his wife, Karen, bought a farm in southern California. They produce organic, hydroponic crops. They grow their tomatoes, lettuce and basil in pure water instead of in soil. Karen Archipley says her husband wanted to share the peace he found on his farm with other veterans. So the Archipleys worked with the local Veterans Administration office. They wanted to help returning troops translate their leadership skills to private business. Archi’s Acres is helping combat veterans become agricultural business owners. Colin Archipley is expanding his program to teach business skills. And he plans to include active troops who are ending their service. He notes that many veterans suffer from post traumatic stress disorder. This is made worse when they cannot find jobs and become homeless. He believes that the rate of PTSD would drop if soldiers could spend their last few months in the military learning skills so they could get jobs. In his new six-week program, Colin Archipley will teach agricultural skills from planting to harvest. Karen Archipley will teach marketing. Educators from the Small Business Administration are also involved. They will teach classes on how to operate a business. Colin Archipley does not expect veterans completing the program will have any problems finding work. He hopes to expand his program to serve veterans on the East Coast. He is also planning to make his six-week course available online so anyone in the military, anywhere, can take the classes.For VOA Special English I’m Alex Villarreal.

The LaPorte Church of Christ
The LaPorte Church of Christ, located in LaPorte, Colorado, is an indendent, non-denominational Christian church, based upon and patterned after the church found the New Covenant Scriptures.
The LaPorte Church of Christ has been at its present location in LaPorte, Colorado, since October of 1977.
For the past 17 years, the LaPorte Church of Christ has been pastored by Peter J. Peters.
Following is a brief general statement of the beliefs held by the LaPorte Church of Christ:
We believe the Bible, both Old Covenant and New Covenant, is the divinely-inspired Word of God, II Timothy 3:16.
We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Great I AM that became flesh and dwelt among us, John 1:1,14.
We believe that Jesus Christ shed His blood and died in order to save sinners, and that no man can come to the father but through Jesus Christ, Romans 3:23 & 6:23.
We believe Jesus Christ is King, and that he now reigns over the Kingdom of God, a kingdom which exists at the present time and which is above all earthly rule and authority, and that of the Kingdom of God there shall be no end, Colossians 2:10, Daniel 2:44, Revelation 5:10.
We believe that, in order to have salvation and to be a part of the Kingdom of God (Revelation 5:10), one must:
believe in and on the Lord Jesus Christ, John 3:16,
repent of his sins, Mark 6:12,
confess Jesus Christ, Romans 10:9,
be baptized by immersion, for the forgiveness of sins, Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16, I Peter 3:21.
We believe that Jesus Christ came to the descendants of Abraham, Matthew 15:24, and with them established a new covenant, Hebrews 8:8, in the process, purchasing the entire world, Matthew 13:44, which he loves, John 3:16.
We believe that there exists today a people chosen by God who are the physical seed of Abraham, Genesis 17:1-6, and that this people is to be a light to the world and a force against evil. Likewise, we believe that there exists today a people described in the Scripture as anti-Christs, John 2:22, who are children of darkness, hindering the Kingdom of Christ, while outwardly appearing righteous, Matthew 23. Thus, we believe that there exists today a struggle between good and evil, between light and darkness.
We believe that the followers of Christ, in opposing evil, are to hold up the Laws, the Statutes, and the Judgements of God as the answer to the problems of mankind.
