Event: 2018 National Police Week Candlelight Vigils

IMPORTANT NOTE –
This event is a National Event and is being held on Mother’s Day. As a Mom I feel the one hour on this day is worth giving to those Moms who have watched their blessed children leave the home and never return.
If you plan to hold/sponsor an event at any of the police stations, please let me know and I will add you as a confirmed event. I will be at Suffolk 5th Precinct in Patchogue. Judy

National Police Week is a week-long reflection on those police officers who have fallen in the line of duty. It occurs the second week of May each year. Events are being held nationwide and are supported by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial.

Long Island grassroots organizations are holding local events on Saturday, May 13th at local police stations to pay respect to and to show support of those officers who are working side by side with local residents to improve the quality of life in our neighborhoods.

HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN POLICE VIGIL – Follow these steps:
• Identify initial volunteers, participants for May 13th, 2018: Contact civic groups, neighborhood watch groups, local pro police grassroots groups and neighbors.
• Communicate with Police Community Affairs Officer/Precinct Council: Contact the local precinct Cope officers and discuss with them your plans. On LI our contact is the COPE team.
• Hold your Vigil
Have people arrive about 7:45 PM
Welcome & greet all participants.
Turn on flashlights or led lights at 8:00.
Give a statement of purpose and prayer: We are here to honor the police officers killed in the line of duty this past year.
In addition we are here to show our support for their families and fellow officers. If anyone wants to speak in recognition of this ultimate sacrifice, but ask all to be brief.
By 8:30 shut off lights thank all for participating.
Thank you all for your support and help to make this event a nice tribute to our men and women in Blue.
