Comment by Rev. Raymond C. Harvey on December 19, 2008 at 10:17am - My brothers and Sisters, the greatest season of all is just a few days away. And while most companys are running around with Santa, its good to know that when we talk about the birth of Christ, we talk about it in such away that it lets those around us know that we are children of God. It is my prayer that each and everyone of you enjoy this Christmas Season and have a very Happy New Year.

Hey...I'm new at all this. Career FF for 22+yrs. Wanted to say,"Hello," to all.
SSHGFFB...saved ,sanctified.....Husband, father of daughter & son.I'm also a minister (Elder)
love to golf, especially with my father.
And I believe that when I asked God to lead me to a job where I could use all the talents He gave me that He allowed me to become a FF/Medic
Looking forward to discussion on this forum.
Oh ,yeah. I believe Sen. Obama is CLEARLY our best choice . ( "...every brother ain't a brother 'cause of color..." -Chuck D.
however inspite of his platforms supporting homosexual rights and also abortion, Sen. Obama needs our total support .
And once in office,we need to correspond with our various representatives in Washington to express our needs ,wishes , fears ,and convictions. It doesn't end with the November Elections . The IAFF needs to hear from a strong body of A-Amer. F.F., if they haven't yet.
I told you all I'm new here,so if I've made any mistakes or offended that isn't my intention.
Peace ,
Charles
