Friday, June 17th: National Day of Prayer for Law Enforcement

While we may all be of different beliefs and faiths, there remains one thing we are united in, and that is our gratitude and love for those who wear the badge.⁣ Although we may be working or serving in various locations and unable to join together, the words "For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them”, reminds us that we can lift up our hearts and voices anywhere, alone or with others.

   

Deputy First Class Glenn Hilliard | Wicomico County Sheriff's Office

We were shocked and surprised during a peaceful Sunday evening last night; worried for an officer we thought was injured; praying he or she would survive and recover. We were broken-hearted to see the updates which told us this was much worse, and devastated to read the words which began spilling out across social media. Our prayers for strength go out to the family of this deputy, loved ones and friends, and all at the Wicomico County Sheriff's Office as together we struggle to process what has happened.

   

As Police Week 2022 Comes to a Close....

Today was the official end to Police Week 2022. Being able to follow some of the services via YouTube or livestreamed is a great thing for those of us who cannot attend in person, but still wish to pay our respects to the fallen and the survivor families. In addition to the schedule in Washington, D.C., there were events this month which took place locally, such as memorial ceremonies and the Unity Tour riders passing through parts of Delaware and Maryland.

Mother's Day Greetings for Law Enforcement

This weekend we celebrate all mothers and moms, but especially the women who have chosen to serve in law enforcement. To those who decided to answer the call to protect your community, county or state, we remain ever grateful for your dedication and commitment.

National Public Safety Telecommunications Week 2022

Public Safety Telecommunications professional sounds like an ordinary, impersonal phrase used to describe a job opening, doesn't it? The wording of such a career does not truly convey or sum up the people who occupy such a role, nor does it begin to describe the multitude of tasks and skills this occupation encompasses.
