The 8th Annual Peace Officers & Firefighters Prayer Breakfast

    SNAPSHOTS

    A short but moving journey through emergency vehicles, under a memorial flag,

    and past banners commemorating fallen heroes.

    A superb early morning buffet. 

    The call of an accomplished bugler & the swells of champion bagpipers

    herald the adventure that is about to begin.

    An unhindered view of Saddleback Mountain gives silent confession to the awesomeness

    of the Creator, providing a grand backdrop for the unfurling of the giant Stars and Stripes.

    Law enforcement officers, firefighters, Armed Forces, county and state leaders - -

    acknowledging the great heritage and faith of our Founding Fathers through their

    prayers of gratitude to God and petitions for His mercy.

    Solemn respect paid to those who gave their all.

    A pointed challenge touching the heartstrings of every listener with well-placed humor,

    and the unmistakable authority derived from the discipline of study, the wisdom of experience,

    and a vision of Truth.

    A spiritually stirring and patriotic grand finale medley bringing the crowd to its feet - - hands lifted high.
