Is there church services on Sunday while you're in basic?

There's tons! In fact, while I was there, we had to spread them out over Friday-Sunday to get all of the services in! I don't have my list anymore but here's what the official site has to say; http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil/chapel_...p_schedule.asp (Earth-centered was a truly amazing service and very interesting if you're just interested in learning about other religions.)

So you are allowed to visit a service without having that in your paperwork? Like I put "No Religion" in when filling out all of the paperwork before MEPS but I would really like to go a service to learn some.

I went to a Buddhist service while I was in boot. It was Japanese Buddhism, so there was a lot of chanting in Japanese led by an exmilitary guy who'd been stationed in Japan for a long time. Definitely worth going to once.

Which one is considered a Non-denominational/Pentecostal service?

Church of Christ is non-denominational but not Pentecostal.

Yes. On sundays, you have what is called Holiday Routine from 0700 to 1300. You can go to the chapel which has different service times for a wide variety of religions. Seriously. This one female in my division practiced this one religion which I don't remember the name of, that had to do with witchery. Belay my last if I'm off. So whatever it is, RTC has it. You can hygiene for as long as you want, write and send letters, shine boots, etc. But you cannot sleep or do nothing. I went to Contemporary Christian service like every other week with some of my ship mates.
