10/9/2020

0 Comments

Because of the sad state of our culture right now, most officers believe it's best to not have their photos online. We are proud of our men and women in Blue and are grateful they've lent their voices to the conversation on this very important topic. So we ask that you pray for them and show them your support in other ways. Drop off a card or treats at the station. Tell an Officer "Thank You."

After nearly a quarter of a century in uniform, Officer Sean has seen it all. There are dark days where the things he's seen have left indelible marks on his soul and there have been good days where his time in uniform has born good fruit. He's changed many lives but has also been changed as well. Twenty-five years later and he said he would do it all over again. Listen in as one of our nation's finest shares how faith, family and community support sustain him every day he puts on his uniform and his life on the line.
