North Carolina Chaplain’s Corner
Fraternal Order of Police
On October 8, 2017 I traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada. I am a member of the
1500 Walnut Street Billy Graham Rapid Response Team and had the privilege of joining other
Cary, NC 27511 members there. Our goal was to bring spiritual and emotional care to people
affected by the largest mass killing in history of the United States. (Psalm
(O) 800-628-8062 119:9 The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble).
(F) 919-461-4958 Being a member of the North Carolina Fraternal Order of Police, as well as
National FOP Chaplain and Chaplain with the Billy Graham Rapid Response
Email Team, I was able to make contact with the Las Vegas FOP Lodge 1. They
NCFOP@nc.rr.com had a trailer set up inside the guarded area of the crime scene and were pre-
paring meals for the FBI agents and other Law Enforcement officers working
Web Site the case. The Billy Graham Chaplains gave assistance to Las Vegas Lodge 1
www.ncfop.org by greeting law enforcement on the scene and giving support and encourage-
ment to the agents and other law enforcement personnel.
President I had the honor of praying for the FOP volunteers working the mobile unit,
Randy Hagler asking God’s wisdom and care for investigating officers, families and friends
rlhncfop@bellsouth.net of those wounded and killed at the concert.
It was a real blessing having Las Vegas FOP Lodge 1 Sergeant At Arms and
Immediate Past President Disaster Response Coordinator Tony "Trip" McCleery to pray a beautiful
Terry Mangum prayer over us.
God’s Blessings,
