Our Purpose
The purpose of this organization is to bring together individuals and
groups who are interested in providing effective chaplaincies for the
Fire and Law Enforcement organizations. To fulfill this purpose for the
Johnson County Fire and Law Enforcement Association and its members of
the Fire and Law Enforcement services and their families. These shared
ideas and concerns should encourage and assist each one to develop the
most noble of all human characteristics, service to the others and to
God, our supreme chief.
As fire and law enforcement chaplains, our work is not
limited to the area of fire and law enforcement departments,
firefighters, communities nor victims of the devastating ravages of
fire and other crisis happenings. We shall strive to help ease the
sufferings of our fellow man where ever our paths shall lead. However,
as a base for our work, we have chosen the Nations Fire and Law
Enforcement Departments.
Firefighting and Law Enforcement are acknowledged as the
World's most dangerous profession, and fire victims suffering is beyond
description.
By providing an effective fire and law enforcement chaplain service,
first within these areas, our work will achieve the goal of serving God
and humanity, firefighters and law enforcement, who need the help
provided by thoughtful, caring and effective fire and law enforcement
chaplaincies programs. This, with Gods help is our purpose and we will
strive to build, and Glorify Him.
