Reflections for Community Supervision Officer II Addison M. Ford, Sr.
This man saved my life, he was my po at one point. He got me my first job ever. He passed away from Covid before I could thank him. Officer ford, I went from a first offender to a federal government employee. This was all because you cared about me. I love you ford, and I will eternally be grateful for you. I am where I am at in life because of you and many others. Thank you for never giving up on me. My prayers to your family, and may your soul rest in peace. Respectfully and gratefully, Garrett Bell.

Most merciful God, You hold each of us dear to Your heart. Hold all America’s Peace Officers and their families, who are afflicted or affected by the COVID-19 Virus, in Your loving arms and tenderly draw them into Your life, together with all others who are living with the COVID-19 Virus. Assure them that they are not alone, and give them courage and faith for all that is to come. Strengthen those who care for them and treat them, and guide those who do research. Nourish those who have lost sight of You, and heal the spirits of those who are broken. We pray this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, who suffered and died, and then rose from the dead to lead us into new life, now and forever. In Christ Jesus, I pray. Amen.
