As part of our "Love Jesus, Love Ringgold" theme for the year, this Sunday we will be honoring our police and firemen for their service to our community. As public servants, they affect the conditions we live in and have an impact on our families, our workplaces, our city, our county and ultimately our church. We are mandated by Scripture to pray for those in authority, (I Timothy 2:1-2), "...so that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty." It should be with urgency that we pray for them considering what they face each day. They are often targets of criticism even though they are the go-to-people in a crisis. We want to honor them because we recognize the greatness of their task and because we are grateful for their willingness to serve and protect our community. Sheriff Gary Sisk will be speaking and sharing his hopes for the future of Catoosa County.
