A Rose in the Desert: The Work of God...at Work

By Bill Petite

In October of 1981, the National Training Center at Ft. Irwin, Ca. was opened as a training facility for US Army units. The work force was civilian, government contract employees. This work force was involved in, among other evil and detestable practices, drug use, alcohol use and sex?O..while on the job. It was a playground for Satan and his followers. This is the last place anyone would expect to hear anything about God. But, God soon began a work that would touch the hearts and lives of the extremely Godless people in this place. God turned the Track and Wheel Shops at Ft. Irwin into a mission field. Starting with one man, God began a revival in this work place that saw many get saved and go on to various ministries and the mission field. This movement eventually grew into a weekly, organized Bible Study that is still thriving and seeing lives changed. This book tells the true story of how Jesus came into this place of work and saved people from their despicable, evil lifestyles of sin. This work of God, which exists among the various lifestyles of this workforce, truly stands out like a rose in the desert.
