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."

GRACIOUS LORD, God of all-sufficient grace, whose will is that all might love as they have been loved in Christ: stamp your image on my soul, restore your loving character in my spirit, and refashion my whole being into a transcript of your holiness in both heart and life. Amen.

Eternal God
We lift up Rob and know that you can supply physical healing. Please help him know that as he heals he may have options allowing him to stay in the Navy or rejoin, as others on N4M have mentioned. Help him search out and learn how he can keep his dream within this family of the Navy.
Also,continue to support his mother, Debra. We all care for our children--as you care for every feather on a sparrow.
Lord, please spread your healing touch.
In Your Name we Pray , Amen

INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEACE
Sunday’s Reflection
GOD OF THE HEAVENS and the earth,
We need your peace.
Send your gentle, fierce Spirit
To all the war-torn lands
And broken relationships.
Come, God of peace.
We need you today.
Amen.

Heavenly father, we lift up Ron, who has dedicated his life to you thorough the youth. We know he has a big tear in his heart over the young believer who lost his life in Belize. Please uphold Ron as he now ministers to this young person's family in addition to his own grief. And be with this family and support them through the coming weeks as they await the body of their loved one.
We ask that Ron finds grace through this trial.
In Jesus name we pray, Amen

Dear Lord
Only you can guide our medical teams through intervention. Please be with Lisa and her Mom Audrey. Hold her Mom in your loving hands. Help them understand all the new jargon they are going to hear. Keep them steady and strong. And always have them in our hearts as we pray for health and the best treatments possible.
Uphold Lisa as she helps her mom. Let her know that we are there in spirit, and available by phone if necessary.
In Jesus' Name we Pray, Amen

The wreck was a shinook (sp??) helicopter in Iraq. Lord keep all of our military safe under the shadow of your mighty wing especially those who are in harms way throughout this world. We love you Lord and trust you.
AMEN
