In a nation known for its secularity, I really like coming across little surprises like this.

New South Wales Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione has welcomed the release of a new Police Bible, created especially for the State’s serving police officers.

The Police Bible includes information on Police ethics, service, integrity and leadership as well as police prayer, and photos of officers in the field. It is thought that eventually, the bulk of the State’s 20,000 officers will have a Police Bible in their possession. Scipione, who is grateful for his new Bible, said, “I believe the Police Bible will impact on generations of Police officers to come.
 
“Every officer who graduates from the Academy in Goulburn is offered a Bible and I would like to think an officer who receives one of these special Police Bibles will one day sit in my seat”, Scipione said.

“They are especially important in our line of work,” he added. “Our officers have a great deal of respect for our Chaplains, and what better way to build on that relationship than to share the Gospel?”

Where did this week go? One minute I’m posting on Tuesday and next thing I know it’s Friday!

My fortnight of letting the former General Manager (old COO) download his head into mine ends today, and next week the Managing Director (CEO) and I (new COO) get into implementing some change to make the management function better suit our respective skillsets (I’m even sounding like a manager).

So I’m about to get to work shaping my (work)space. Your prayers for wisdom are greatly appreciated. The opportunity to be a living example of the Gospel in the way I manage and influence staff, customers, suppliers, and other interested parties is both invigorating and scary.

And one day, I’ll learn Photoshop or something like it and make pics as cool as the ones you find on this blog
