Prayers for our Firefighters

Please pray for the families of the two firefighters who died Easter Sunday. One was a captain with 30 years experience and one a rookie, this being his first fire. BJ's very good buddy was at the fire as the Engine Operator. It is extremely sad for the families, crew, and all Houston Fire Fighters.

This hits very close to home. BJ will most likely promote to Captain in the next couple years and it was not long ago I remember watching him go through the training process. I can not imagine the difficulty these families are facing. Your prayers are needed. It is a dangerous job no matter how much experience and no matter how cautious you are.

Thank you to our firefighters for all you do.

We passed a fire station on our way to church yesterday and they were lowering the flags to half-mast and I cried all the way to church. I can't imagine what those families are going through. Owen and I pray for BJ's safety all the time.

Continuous prayers for the whole Department and BJ as he continues to serve!
