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.

This is America where we are have inalienable rights, freedom of religion is one of those rights. Nothing in our construction modifies those rights, such as you loose these rights if it might offend someone.
All we can do ia stay strong in our faith & continue to pray for our nation. It is written and it was prophesies that this day would come. A great falling away and what is evil is good and what ia good is evil. We are living the end of the age.
Just what we need…a Godless, angry, black woman in a public office…great!
Regardless…a city contract can’t superceded the constitution or it’s illegal.
Recind the contract, and sue her and the city for violating his constitutional rights.
Let’s not even mention the fact that it’s his right to pray before he possibly dies in the line of duty…
Amen stand your ground.
30 days is a short sentence considering the eternity in hell for not praying.
