Chaplain Moore was born in Augusta, GA. He was

of Arts in Religion from Southwestern Christian University, in Bethany, OK.
He fulfilled requirements for post-graduate level studies from Asbury
Theological Seminary, Wilmore, KY and Graduate School, Southwestern
Christian University. Chaplain Moore served as a Social Worker and
Houseparent at Falcon Children’s Home in Falcon, NC from 1989 until 1994. He
was selected to serve his alma mater, Southwestern Christian University, as
Dean of Students from 1994 until 1999. In the spring of 1999, Moore applied
to the United States Navy as a commissioned officer in pursuit of a long
held dream of becoming a military Chaplain.
Commissioned on 24 May 1999 as a Lieutenant (Junior Grade), Moore reported
to Basic Course at Naval Chaplains School in Newport, RI on 07 June 1999.
Upon completion of Chaplain School he reported aboard USS ARCTIC (AOE-8) on
05 September 1999 while the ship was deployed in the Mediterranean. Moore
was promoted to Lieutenant in July 2000 and served as the last chaplain
assigned to USS ARCTIC, completing her “Final Voyage” from April – November
2001 during Operation Enduring Freedom. Chaplain Moore reported to Naval Air
Station Sigonella, Sicily as Staff Chaplain in January 2002 and served the
community until January 2005. Chaplain Moore reported to Second Marine
Aircraft Wing, Marine Air Control Group 28, Cherry Point, NC and was
deployed to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom 04-06. Moore earned
his Chaplain Fleet Marine Force Qualified Officer pin (FMFQO) in March 2007
and was promoted to Lieutenant Commander on 01 August 2007.
LCDR Moore reported to Naval Submarine Support Command, Pearl Harbor Hawaii
in October 2007. He serves as Command Chaplain for NSSC serving sixteen Fast
Attack LOS ANGELES Class Submarines, two VIRGINIA Class Submarines, three
Squadron staffs and their dependents.
Chaplain Moore’s personal decorations include the Navy Commendation Medal
(two awards), Navy Achievement Medal (three awards), Iraqi Campaign Medal
(FMF), and both the Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary and Service
Medals. He is married to the former Pamela Joy Sizemore of London, KY and
the proud father of four beautiful children, Jessica 20, Isaac 19, Emily 17
and Joseph, 4 years. Moore has volunteered with the Boy Scouts of America in
Sicily and Cherry Point, NC. He enjoys playing softball, volleyball, golf
and fishing; however, he’s okay at volleyball, worse at softball, a lousy
golfer and refuses to discuss his fishing abilities (or lack thereof).

Retreat Descriptions: All retreats are free and include meals and housing. Transportation is provided to the PGR, SGR, SR, WR, and as needed to the WTR. Registration is open for all retreats. However, we do not take registration for Marriage Enrichment Retreats until two months before their scheduled date.
Personal Growth Retreat (PGR) - Participants often described PGRs as a positive “turning point” in their lives. PGRs provide a safe-space and a proven opportunity for self-reflection and development of new personal and spiritual viewpoints on life issues. This retreat is not designed to fix or diagnose problems; rather it is an opportunity for participants to find hope and healing through the sharing of their story in a supportive community process.
Marriage Enrichment Retreats (MER) - MERs focus on deepening married couple’s commitment, self-understanding and of each other while ensuring space for individual couple time. Couples are responsible for setting up their own childcare. MERs help enrich marriages and are not a substitute for marital or individual counseling.
Family Enrichment Retreat (FER) - Families, in an interactive method, learn practical skills based on proven principals that can help resolve conflict, build encouragement within families and instill effective discipline to bring out the best in each family member. FERs include time for families to rest and play together. (The IA FER is reserved for families of recently returned IAs or that are deployed. The retreat includes space to address IA related issues.)
Divorce Recovery Retreat (DRR) - Divorce can wound a person in many ways. These wounds can carry over into the next relationship, damaging it as well. During this retreat we cover common issues divorced people face, including how to forgive, difficulty in trusting again, and how to continue being a parent to your children if you do not have custody. 60% of second marriages end in divorce: this retreat will improve your odds of success!
Women’s Retreat (WR) - The women’s retreat is specifically designed for women to reflect on their journey as a woman, their spiritual path in the company of other women and to re-energize for work and family. Through readings, small groups and other exercises women are helped to reconnect and as needed to look at their hopes, desires, fears and dreams.
PGW- The personal growth workshop is two days long and is included in the Navy’s BEARINGS program. Attendee’s are normally first or second term Sailors.
The "Elijah Project" - This retreat is designed specifically for anyone in the military whose professional future is uncertain. If you sense and feel that change and transition is imminent, then THIS RETREAT IS FOR YOU!
CREDO is a program of the Navy Chaplain Corps. The CREDO programs and personnel are operationally focused, family supportive, and flexible in the provision of ministry. The CREDO Midlant's efforts are designed to meet these service demands by 1) maximizing operational impact, 2) offering standard retreat and training programs, and 3) clarifying responsibilities. CREDO Retreats enhance the Navy Chaplain Corps goal of developing spiritually fit sea warriors and family who are trained in ethics, morally grounded, family supportive, spiritually ready, sustained in her/his religious freedom, and mission capable.
