We watched as Jeremy McElroy from Bland Vol Fire Dept climbed the tower 11 times, the equivalent to climbing the 110 stories. This climb is a tribute to the sacrifice the first responders endured on that dreadful day. Thank you Jeremy!

We will take ALL orders, no deadline.

One of our fellow EMTs and family/friend, was involved in a severe auto accident while on their way to work this morning.

As a dedicated and compassionate first responder, he has spent a number of years serving our community and surrounding counties to help others in their time of need. For a person who is often a source of strength for others, we ask that you be their ultimate source of strength.

All proceeds for our Poff’sghetti meal, to be held on Wed. SEPT 17, proceeds will go towards this fellow EMT & Family.

Let us pray together.

Dear God, we lift up our fellow EMT to you. We ask for your powerful and merciful healing hand to be upon them. We ask that you surround our fellow EMT and family with love and support, and provide them with strength. We also pray for strength and comfort to their body and guide the hands and minds of every doctor, nurse, and caregiver involved. We pray that you bring clarity and guidance to the EmT's thoughts and emotions during their recovery. Please wrap our EMT and family and loved ones in your peace during this difficult and uncertain time. We place this situation in your loving hands, AMEN.
