Risking his life for eighteen years as a firefighter, Ronnie Edwards has prayed at every emergency scene. His actions have earned him the title of the “Praying Fireman” and those he works alongside admire and support his work ethic and his noble prayer habit. This habit of prayer has landed him in jail for 30 days.
The new mayor of DeQuincy, Lawana Jones is the “first democratic mayor in its history, an African American”, is an atheist, and has taken exception to Edwards prayer life. When she learned of Edwards praying at fires, she decided to do something about it. Sending a memo to all city employees, she told them that “any expression of personal religious belief while on duty was a violation of their contract with the city.”
Ronnie Edwards chose to keep up his prayer vigil as he believes that he must do what Jesus asks of him and not cave to the whims of an atheist mayor.

Christians are under attack at every corner..Trump to restore religious freedom and any one o f you who profess Christian faith and do not vote there is no Christian bone in your body..
Unbelievable!
Better not be true
When I got out I would hunt that judge down
This is totally unacceptable, these firemen need Jesus everyday all day, their jobs are very dangerous and who ever came up with a lame beau idea not to pay him for praying should be ashamed and fired!
Its really getting stupid
If he or anyone else wants to pray then they should be allowed to do so when it is not during work time in my opinion!
Who is the stupid Jerk who did this to these men
pray anywhere
Disgraceful and disgusting!
