We had a tragic loss in our community yesterday. While serving warrants two Officers from the San Luis Obispo Police Department were shot with one killed & one hospitalized. This is approximately 1 year since the Officers of neighboring Paso Robles were fired upon repeatedly at the Police HQ & as they attempted to capture the suspect.
San Luis Obispo County is a small/rural area of about 300,000. Many of us are closely connected to anyone that suffers in our community and even if not, the loss affects us due to the strong sense of community. Nationally our LEOs face danger daily & probably more so in urban areas than in our community. Today let's pray for the fallen officer & his injured partner & their families and continue to do so everyday as we also pray for protection for the Officers across the US and around the world.
Dear God, we pray for your special strength and protection for our police officers as they go about their duty to keep us safe. We thank you for all that these special men and women do for us & understand the complexity & danger of the challenges that they face daily. We pray that no weapon used against them will be successful and that they will make good choices in the completion of their duties. Please protect them and keep them safe for their families. Amen.
