We, the comrades of Unit 1012:
The VFFDP, will always remember Melissa Trotter on November 26 every year as it
was her birthday. Although she was murdered on December 8, 1998 and taken from this earth, we
will remember how she lived on this earth, and not how she died.
Justice was served as her killer, Larry Swearingen was executed by lethal
injection in Texas on August 21, 2019.
As for the saints who are on the earth,“They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.”- Psalm 16:3 (NKJV)"So long as we live, they too shall live and love for they are a part of us as we remember them."- Gates of Prayer
230 years ago on November 26, 1789, a national Thanksgiving Day is observed in the
United States as proclaimed by President George
Washington at the request of Congress. In order to remember this event
and also Melissa’s 40th birthday in Heaven, we, the comrades of Unit
1012: The VFFDP, will present this prayer:
As blessed members of Unit 102, we thank you Father God for the
gift of Jesus, your Son, who, because of the cross, gives us salvation and
eternal life. Because of Him, this Thanksgiving day, we have a great
appreciation of family and dignity. We give thanks for life and its sanctity,
for comforting the families of victims of violent crimes and punishing those
who commit them, while at the same time offering the offenders a chance for
redemption. This holiday season, please send help to those who are hungry,
sick, or oppressed, for the homeless and the helpless and the lonely and the
lost. We give thanks to You, for being our Creator, Protector and provider.
Most of all, 1 Thessalonians 5:18 "No matter what happens, always be
thankful, for this is Gods will for you who belong to Christ Jesus." Amen
