OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Lord I ask you today to keep our boys safe, healthy and ready for the next day. Bring healing to those who may be injured, strength to those who feel weak, comfort those who are homesick. Give them all they need for each day. Thank you,
Amen -

Heavenly Father, My Abba, I ask your grace and healing for my son K. I beg that you heal his leg fully and completely and settle his troubled heart so that he may continue in his challenges and soulful desire to become a Navy SEAL. Use the skills and knowledge of the physicians, nurses, and therapists to restore him to full strength and total function in this leg and in his ankle. You alone Lord are Worthy to be Praised and Honored and in you we place our trust and our hope. Amen

Our Lord God, I come to you today with thanks for all that you have done in bringing these women together in this journey. By bringing us together for our own son we also are in prayer for all of the young men in this program, and all those we have met here as friends and sisters in you. We laugh, cry, vent, and pray together. It is a blessing to me and I know it is to them as well.
I lift up AZOKmom's K to you today. I ask on behalf of his mom and all of us moms for healing, a very special healing for this son. Mend his bones, ligaments, and any other part of his body that need your healing touch. Bring people to him who will speak to his heart the words he needs to hear. We don't know what those are Lord, but you do. I thank you so much for his faithful mother. She is an inspiration to us as she continues to show love & support to K without receiving back from him. We pray for resolution and healing in his heart as well as his body.
We ask in Your name... -

Abba Father, I lift up Ray Ray's son J to you today. We claim that "all things work together for good to those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose." We ask for your comfort and peace for both mother and son as they wait. Give them an extra measure of faith this week and please help them feel our love and support. I also thank you the support and love I have received from Ray Ray. Bless her.
Amen -

I've been peeking in on Class 280 and offer up prayers for all of the boys currently in BUDS and their wonderful supportive moms. I ask Lord for healing, strength, courage and safety for these men. Stand beside them in all that they do, everywhere they go and guide their path.
Amen -

Thank you for your prayers for J. Praise report.There were eye x-rays that were taken of J's eyes that could have been very serious. They didn't find anything that would stop them from giving him the PRK eye surgery that he was waiting for to keep him in the program. God is watching over our boys! Amen

Lord, I ask for a good report on Kelly's son. Please let him be well and at his best so he can move forward in this path. Watch over all of the boys in this class as they go into the next phase toward their goal. Comfort and encourage their moms who love them so much.
