Bible studies in OCFers' homes, barbecues at chape Bible studies in OCFers' homes, barbecues at chapels, adventures in the Rocky Mountains... OCF fellowship knows no bounds! 

Throughout the second week of #SCRockyMountainHigh earlier this month, RMH mentor and USAFA Field Staff rep PK Carlton led evening studies on Christ's example of servant leadership and what it means to be in the world but not of it. @acctsmilitaryministry sent two friends from Mongolia to enjoy the week-long leadership development program alongside two USAFA cadets, all fearlessly led by four @springcanyonoutdoor guides. 

The third RMH week wraps up tomorrow, leaving five more weeks of adventure to go this summer!

What keeps you from sharing your faith with others What keeps you from sharing your faith with others? Capt Ryan McCary, ANG, joined us on #OCFCrosspoint to talk about this question and others. Pulling from his experiences in a missionary family, as an AFROTC cadet at the University of Central Florida, and as a TACP (Tactical Air Control Party) Officer, he recounts his own failures to share his faith, how the Lord changed Him in the process, and practical steps for being bold in your faith today.

Check out his episode wherever you listen to podcasts, then keep up with Ryan by following him over at @mil_spec_believer, which is also the name of his own podcast centered on life in the military as a Christian.

From today's #OCFPowerinPrayer reminder: "Pray tha From today's #OCFPowerinPrayer reminder: "Pray that those currently trying to enter military service, relocating to new duty stations, and/or transitioning out of military service will find their courage in the Lord and His sovereignty. 'The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps' (Proverbs 16:9)."

Reposted from Travis AFB OCF Local Leader @ryanvpadgett 

"This is what family's all about! Over the years, our @ocfusa small group has had folks comes and go, marriages, deaths, children born, PCS's, and just about every other life event that happens 'under the sun' over years spent doing life together. In fact, today, @adams_bailey made home from another deployment, and we got the chance to go out and give her a hug, share a @dutchbroscoffee (Thanks @dutchbrosfairfield !) and spend a few minutes together before she went home to crash...lol...But of all the lessons we've learned doing life together, here's one of the best.....Life is better together ;-) Welcome home Bailey!!! So glad to have you back!!

For decades, Christians in the military have gathe For decades, Christians in the military have gathered at @wssocf, @springcanyon, and OCF local fellowships across the world to encourage one another as they integrate faith and service. This summer, @wssocf will host the Christian Military Leadership Seminar, specifically designed as an opportunity to explore the tensions Christians face in the military today. 

Join CH(COL) Timothy Mallard, USA, as he leads discussion-oriented sessions on this topic and draws from the book of Daniel. This weekend seminar, scheduled for August 5-7, will serve as a springboard for further discussions in the OCF community as we seek to magnify Christ an ever-changing military culture.

Coincidentally, last week's #ocffellowshipfriday f Coincidentally, last week's #ocffellowshipfriday featured the group at #langleyafb that's been studying Jonah, and today's feature takes us across the Atlantic to another OCF group studying Jonah (thanks to resources from @thebibleproject) at Ramstein Air Base!

"We have learned that Jonah is so much more than just a guy who got swallowed up by a large fish!" said Local Leader Julia Bowers. "The book, with many multinarratives, all relate back to the larger biblical narrative of creation, fall, redemption, restoration."

This "family-away-from-family," as Julia says, meets Thursday evenings at Ramstein Northside Chapel, and they set aside every third Thursday of the month to share a meal together. If you're in the area or will be soon, visit ocfusa.org/directory to get connected to Ramstein Air Base/Kaiserslautern Military Community OCF.
