Officers Wear Shield of Faith

In 1984, a group of Cape May County peace officers, most of them policemen, had started a new organization dedicated to promoting Jesus Christ to other police officers and to addressing social issues in general.

President of the Cape May chapter is Lower Township Det. Jack Trombetta who believes a scriptural influence can help a policeman in handling the everyday stress of the job. "The object of the organization is to bring others to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ." said Trombetta who belongs to Covenant Bible Church in Lower Township. "We will promote Christian maturity and growth through bible teaching and will conduct and promote Christian fellowship between law enforcement agencies."
The group has had meetings on social issues at which it showed a film on abortion and presented the secular and Biblical views on why there are other alternatives then abortion.

"We believe, God willing,that this ministry will have impact on especially on our young people who may have the wrong idea of the functions of a police officer."
