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."

Just wanted to thank you all, my sisters in the Lord. Thank you Jennifer for this safe haven where we can come and bring our prayers before our family and the Lord!

Hi Sisters,
As I pray for all our troops and sailors I hope you all will join with me in prayer for my daughter Lauren and all her shipmates as they head to Haiti this week to provide Disaster Relief to the island of Haiti.

I wanted to say God bless & Happy New Year/Decade to all my sisters here. Thank you all for being believers and part of a praying family.

Hi all my sisters ~ just wanted to check and pray that all is well with everyone and their family. I'm so very grateful to Father God that my daughter and her ship just safely returned to their homeport in VA.
Could be a bit jealous because they were underway to the Bahamas for a week but...did not get to leave the ship...gasp! My daughter had the right attitude and told me mom, I still love seeing the dolphins swim alongside the ship!! She enjoyed the weather and the palm trees in FL always make me smile! Gotta love 'em!!

Hi All ~
Jennifer, I will be praying for your requests and asking God's mercy in all things that you mentioned and those that were on your heart. May He continue to bestow his blessings on all of us.

Hi Sisters,
I'm writing to say that God is giving me & my family a testimony. Thank you all for your prayers and for stopping by my page to encourage me as I go through a few trials of my own. Nothing that He can't bring me through with a testimony. May our Lord & Saviour give His peace and comfort to you all. Blessings, Sherry

Hi Sisters ~ just needed to ask all here who believe in the power of prayer to please pray for me & my family. There are several things going on that cause me to ask for your combined prayers. Health issues are at the top of this list, as well as some financial matters that are causing some stress. And there are a few unspoken reasons as well.
Please add my family to your prayer groups prayer if you have one. I'm looking forward to having a praise report very soon. Blessings, Sherry

Hi ALL~
Just wanted to say hello and Let you all know all of your sons & daughters are in my prayers. I have a praise report and I want to thank you all for your prayers for my daughter's safe deployment.
My sweet little Sailor Girl, as I like to call her, phoned home on Sunday evening to let me know she was safe in an area of the world that is approx. 6 hours ahead of our EST zone! I'm thankful to the Good Lord and all of my sisters here for your prayers. It's nice to know I have a soft place to land and women who know the power and grace of the Almighty Living God.

Praise Report ~ How I almost missed reporting this I do not know. LOL Last week my Sailor daughter was able to come to visit my son and I! And on Saturday she attended the first of her little brother's graduation ceremonies, a huge blessing since she will be underway when he graduates early next month.
The Lord is so good & so faithful to allow this visit and to keep our children safe in His loving arms. Please keep my sailor and all our military in your prayers.
