International Firefighters Day

Reflection

“Firefighters never die, they burn forever in the hearts of the people whose lives they saved.” ~ Susan Murphree

Prayer

God of courage,

Firefighters, by spirit and by training, rush into danger each day in an effort to save lives, but also to save memories and to save dreams. On this International Firefighters Day, let us pause to give thanks for these brave men and women who risk their lives each day in the service of others. May their courage enkindle within our hearts a desire to dedicate our lives to the service of others and the fostering of dreams. We pray in God’s name. Amen.
