Dear KKIM Family,
I come to you today for prayer for a Dear friend of mine, Dan Fossing Fire Chief in Windom, Minn. There is an attempt to remove Dan as Chief of my Hometown’s Fire Dept. because he drove a Fire Truck to a Church so a fellow Firefighter could have his wedding picture taken with the Fire truck. Dan took the truck out on a regular drive(The Trucks have to be driven once in awhile because this Volunteer Dept in a Town of 4,000 does not use them every week) and stopped at the Church. Someone with a bone to pick with Dan is leading an effort to get him dismissed for doing this. Back home they use the Fire Trucks to haul around Championship sports teams, Santa Claus, etc……..and a Volunteer Fireman can’t use the Truck in a Wedding Picture?
Common Sense has gone out the window on this one! My Dad and Grandpa served on this Dept for years and things like this would happen once in awhile, one of the few fringe benefits of being a volunteer in a small Town. My Dad and Grandpa are turning over in their graves on this tragic thing happening to Dan. He has served with honor for 21 years and has a spotless record.
Whenever something like this is going on it is usually led by one or two people out of jealousy and power. There was a day in my Hometown, when things like this would not happen.
A man has served his Hometown with honor and sacrifice, being a Fire Chief even in a small Town is demanding, (PS I was also a Volunteer Fireman for 2 years in Indiana) on your family and yourself……..and you have to put up with some monkey business from the Town Council and Mayor, and Citizens from time to time……..but this……what is happening in Windom, Minnesota to Dan Fossing is all messed up. Nothing good can come of this for Windom.
Many of you who read the CUP are from or live in the Windom area. I encourage you to call the mayor and Council.
As you can tell I still love my Hometown, Dan Fossing was a year ahead of me in High School, My dad and Grandpa served on the Dept.
Please pray for the Lord’s will to be done in this matter. Please pray for Windom and Dan Fossing.
This is Spiritual warfare.
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and Family
