A Volunteer Firefighter's Prayer
Lord I thank you for surrounding me with the most sincere
And bravest of individuals;
Grant us fortitude so that we may continue to assist one another
As we carry out our duties.

I ask that you guard my fellow Firefighters and I
Whenever and wherever we face danger.
Protect us against natural incidents, careless or evil acts of others, and,
May we be blessed with progressive leaders, exceptional training
and protective equipment; and most advanced technology that can be afforded.

May I continue to receive the generous support of my family
As I carry out this endeavor.

Lord, if you should call me to your side while I'm in service,
Please grant my family incredible strength and understanding,
And may you also grant them comfort and the full support of the community
In their time of need.
