Water Safety Class

 It was a beautiful day for this water safety class.  
I couldn't help but capture some images 
from the day!

    

Duty and Sacrifice

When I am called to duty, God

whenever flames may rage,
Give me the strength to save some life
Whatever be its age.

Help me to embrace a little child
Before it’s too late,
Or some older person
from the horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert
And hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently
to put the fire out.

I want to fill my calling
and give the best in me,
To guard my neighbor
And protect his property.

And if according to Your will
I have to lose my life,
Please bless with Your protecting hand
My children and my wife

Everyday I drive by the fire station on my way into town. We take these brave people for granted, only thanking them in our desperate hour. They face danger everyday. Make it a point to say thanks to your firefighters and police.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Cincinnati Tornado Clean Up

 A week after the tornado hit in Cincinnati, Arkansas the Boy Scout troop from Siloam Springs had a crew of 36 people out doing community service. Troop 84 helped out two different families in need and had a great experience.

Cincinnati Arkansas Tornado

The day after an EF3 tornado touched down in the small Northwest Arkansas town of Cincinnati clean-up crews and line-men work to get the town back together. My family and I spent the day together volunteering at different sites. The Red Cross has set up an Emercency Relief Station at a church in Cincinnati. Clean up will be slow, but their are  a lot of people willing to help. Please pray for the families that suffered.
