A Season for Every Activity


The change in seasons has, once again, brought out the criminal element in Brownsville*.

In the past few weeks, our local convenience store was robbed, a man held police at bay for 10 hours after an altercation with his mother, firefighters came to a scene in the woods where 3 dogs were hung from trees with nearly 20 tires on fire below them, and 2 houses burned.

One of those homes is considered an arson case and was set fire in the middle of the night. Five children and their parents escaped the fire or were rescued and are doing well.

Take some time this week and pray for the peace and protection of our community and that justice is served.

*I'm reminded of last year when summer came and there was much suffering in the community. Please Allow Me to Introduce Myself. I also talked about "Tina" in this post. If you are connecting the dots. Tina's mom is "Holly" who I recently wrote about in Despair in Brownsville.
