Fernando works as the Veterans Program Director at Step Forward Academy as a coach and mentor for veterans transitioning back into civilian life. He helps them develop a career path to a living wage and connects them to a healthy community. "When I returned home from my latest deployment in the U.S. Army, my life began to fall apart. One night, after heavy drinking, I placed my 1911 pistol in my mouth and thought a prayer---silence." Fernando's story will move and inspire you to pray for and look for every opportunity to help our nation's veterans. Fernando authored the book, "The Shadow of Death," which shares his story in detail. He is one of the Men of Mariners and calls Mariners Tustin his home church; he was our speaker at October 2022 Men's Breakfast and at G4 March 2022. www.paratrooperarroyo.com
