Today, many of our Sailors, Marines, Coast Guardsmen, civilians and their families begin the holiday season. As you pause to give thanks, be safe and know we are thankful for your life and service to our great nation.
Happy 241st Anniversary Navy Chaplain Corps! We had a wonderful celebration in the Navy Capital Region this past week. Many thanks to RDML Rock, Commandant Naval District Washington, for his inspirational words and for celebrating with us.
Congratulations to Lieutenant Jonathan Craig for his selection as one of the 2016 Witherspoon Award winners. The Witherspoon Award is given by the National Bible Association to recognize military chaplains from the Air Force, Army, and Navy for their creative use of the Christian Scriptures in the delivery of ministry. Chaplain Craig was recognized as the Navy recipient in Washington, DC on November 16th for his work at Arlington National Cemetery and the Surface Force Ministry Center in Mayport, FL.
Our Religious Ministry Teams in Bahrain and the surrounding area of operations are exemplifying the very best of our Chaplain Corps. Their collaborative spirit and contagious enthusiasm is motivating and encouraging. It was a joy to visit the teams at Naval Station Bahrain, celebrate 241 years of the Navy Chaplain Corps, and engage with our chaplains, Religious Program Specialists, and Sailors currently deployed on the USS Eisenhower. May God continue to bless these chaplains and the Sailors who support them as they deliver religious ministry to our service members in the 5th Fleet.
Happy Birthday Marines! Thank you for 241 years of honorable service and courageous sacrifice to our nation. May God continue to bless the Corps for many years to come. Semper Fidelis.
Proudly standing along side the Navy Chaplain School Advanced and Intermediate Leadership Courses scheduled to graduate this Fri. Nov. 4, at Ft. Jackson, S.C.
Our chaplains and enlisted personnel have the opportunity to serve in very exciting and challenging environments. I am encouraged by the efforts of our religious ministry teams as they minister to service members at Fort Gordon, GA and Kings Bay, GA.
I am having a great visit at the Naval Chaplaincy School and Center meeting with our new chaplains, chaplain candidates, and enlisted sailors supporting religious programs. What a good looking group!

- Chaplain Stan Beach saved my life and record when I went AWOL for 4 ...days after severe sexual trauma by my unit '74-'76. 40 years of silence, my identity is scarred. I hope he is still alive to know I survived. Ironically, his advocacy "kept (my) honor clean", yet removed any evidence I had of those events. I want you to know. See More
- Chaplain Stan Beach saved my life and record in Iwakuni, II MAW, 197...5-77. Sexual abuse by my unit was 4o years ago, yet still tears at me. Ihope he is still alive to know I am still alive. His advocacy "kept my honor clean". Ironically, his interventions on my behalf, removed all record of my AWOL, sparing me potential charges, brig, dishonourable discharge....I now have no evidence of those events. See More
