Pure Living in an XXX-Rated World Seminar


Bob Reehm, former Navy Officer and current leader of the Navigators at the Naval Postgraduate School, will be visiting Ramstein AB in April for sexual assault awareness month. He travels around the world speaking to a variety of audiences on the topic of pure living in an XXX-rated world. He addresses the issue of pornography and warns everyone its dangers. Todays statistics are staggering: the average age of exposure to porn is 10 years old, both males and females are ensnared by it. 

Bob's goal is to glorify God and His Word, by providing a clear understanding of God's plan for pure living and relationships. He'll contrast that with the inhuman and degrading porn culture, and its violation of God's plan. Bob wants to give people a framework of understanding, so when (not if) they see porn, they will NOT accept the lies of the evil industry and become enslaved to it. 

We recognize that this is a very heavy, serious and sensitive topic and therefore, we invite parents to attend this seminar with their student. This will give you an opportunity to engage the topic with your student, and to be able to explain/define anything that was misunderstood. 

Bob will be presenting in between Vision and Salvage on April 16th, from 5:15-6:00 in the North Chapel Conference (Blue) Room. If you know of other families who are not connected with the PYOC, but would like to attend the seminar, please feel free to invite them. 

If you have any questions regarding the presentation, contact us. Please note that we will be out of town the week prior to the seminar for the high school spring break retreat. 

We look forward to seeing you there, and do highly encourage you and your student to attend.

PYOC Update

Hello PYOC Families, 

We've decided to cancel Vision and Salvage today because of the bad road conditions and early school release. 

Chapel policy states that if roads are red one hour prior to a chapel event, that event will be cancelled.Even if roads go to amber before Vision or Salvage today - we are still going to cancel. Once your student gets home, we don't want you to have to make an additional drive to the chapel and risk driving on bad roads. Please stay home, stay safe and enjoy a quality evening at home with your family! 

In other PYOC News ... 

VISION families - So long as the roads are clear, we'll have Castle Games this Saturday, the 16th at the Hohenecken Castle from 1:30-4:00. Have your student dress appropriately to run around and play games ... snow pants, gloves, hats, etc. We'll enjoy snowy finger darts and dodgeball at the Castle. Hohenecken is the town next to Vogelweh Family Housing. 

SALVAGE families - if your student is planning on going on the Spring Break retreat, please register online at www.csmspringbreak.eventbrite.com. We are needing to get our number to Edelweiss, so if you know your student is going, please go ahead and register them. We're looking forward to a great retreat this year! Retreat dates are April 8-12 and cost is $250. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks for your involvement in PYOC!
