As I write this I choke back tears. I call on all firefighters across the nation to find some way to show respect and recognition for our fallen brother and sisters in NYC as well as the other emergency services workers involved.I am OUTRAGED and GREIF STRICKEN at the same time. I have friends who work for NYFD and I pray for them and other emergency workers across the country. Our prayers go out to them and may god watch over them...including my son who is a firefighter in Northern Va. Please keep the rest of them safe.

As I write this I cry. Oh lord, please be with all our fallen and injured brothers and sisters, police officers, civilians, their families and friends in New York City and other areas of the country. Give us all the strength to try to understand all of this. Help us find the right words to explain this to our children.
Lord, please be with our brothers and sisters along the East coast and though out our great nation. Please be with their families to give them strength during this trying time.
No words can explain the emotions of seeing what has happened this morning. Let our prayers go out to those whose job it is to go into this hell and to the victims and their families.
From Alaska, ALL Alaskan Firefighters extend our deepest sympathies to the families of the BRAVE firefighters lost in this ridiculous tragedy. This is truly a day of Armagedon. May the Lord help all of us through these next few days. If your department has a bell, please ring the 3-3-5 to bring our brother home. GOD BLESS US ALL!
I don't know what to say. We can't believe it. It has affected us here in Canada and I offer my thoughts and prayers to our brothers and sisters in New York and all of the United States. It is truly a sad day. They will always be remembered.
I cry as I write this. My heart and soul goes out the brothers and sisters of the FDNY and their families. My heart and prayers also go out to the Linglestown, PA fire company, as they travel tomorrow to New York to aid in the recovery. May their hearts and souls be strong to deal with the tragedy and horror they will face. This should have never happened. May all souls rest in peace with our All Mighty God and Father.
My heart goes out to all FDNY brothers and sisters,families, NYPD, and other emergency workers. Im at a loss for words on such a disgusting act on a great city. I hope god can give strength to each one of you in the days, weeks, you face in rescue efforts. Your in my prayers
