This is our month for giving back in a way I love most, cooking and sharing food. We wanted to take the month of October to highlight the brave volunteers that take time out of their lives with training, meetings and handling emergency calls.
Firefighters Prayer
"When I am called to duty, God wherever flames may rage,
give me strength to save a life, whatever be its age.
Help me to embrace a little child before it's too late,
or save an older person from the horror of that fate.
Enable me to be alert to hear the weakest shout,
and quickly and efficiently to put the fire out.
I want to fill my calling and to give the best in me,
to guard my neighbor and protect his property.
And if according to your will I have to lose my life,
bless with your protecting hand my loving family from strife"
Beekmantown Volunteer Firefighters, thank you for your time and investment in the North Country.
From the bottom of our hearts,
Ashley DeForge and my beautiful and loving staff at Apple Lodge Cafe
