Lord Jesus, as we watch our nation’s brave law enforcement officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the law enforcement officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, I pray. Amen.
“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]
“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” [Psalm 23:4 ESV]

One of the many amazing men and women who gave so selflessly and heroically that day and the many days that followed. Rest in peace always knowing that your service and sacrifice will never, ever be forgotten by your law enforcement brethren.

Rest in peace, my brother. Thank you for your service and sacrifice at the site. May your loving family always be blessed and gain strength for your great loss. Many of us who were there are still here. And, one day will get to meet you to say thanks. I know it will be my honor when it's my time.

On behalf of my family, I extend our sincerest condolences on the grievous loss you suffered when Stephen died as a result of an illness he suffered in the line of duty in 2001 during the aftermath of 9/11.
To the Mullin family, fellow officers, and all who call Stephen beloved, my heart goes out to all of you and may you find comfort in your loved ones and your strength in your faith. When my son was killed, the entire law enforcement community in our area embraced us in a circle of love and support. I hope that you continue to receive that same kind of support. It makes the unbearable less torturous, and I pray for your solace.
This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Detective Mullin gave to his community and the citizens of New York and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on December 7, 2018. We shall never forget any of our 9/11 heroes and I hope you and your family know that a grateful nation mourned for you.
