Good Morning!

Hello Friends!

    "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by

     prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving,

     let your requests be known to God; and the

     peace of God, which surpasses all understanding

     will guard your hearts and minds through

     Christ Jesus."

Thanks for sharing that, Donovan'sMom, but we have heard from groups in the past that action was taken against sailors discovered at Navy Lodge.  We don't think the issue is with civilian hotels, although the sailors are told before they leave for Liberty that they are being "watched" at all times in the community!   Most won't take a chance on getting in trouble and will behave themselves!  :-)  Thanks for passing this along! 

Comment by Donovan'sMom on January 5, 2015 at 7:54am
My son did not stay at Great Lakes, but this is what I was told by him and several others. The RDC's said we have to tell you not to go to any hotels and that we will be checking up on you, but we really don't care and we won't be checking. My son did not volunteer this information, but when I asked he confirmed what others had said.

Hello there,

Is anyone here that had their Sailor staying at the Great Lakes A school?  We need some sort of verification on the Navy Lodge situation.  Were your Sailors allowed or not to visit you in your hotel rooms over this weekend at the Navy Lodge??  We would really appreciate feedback to advise future PIR groups.  Thanks~~

Blessed Sunday!

      you should go; I will guide you with My eye."
