Honored to offer the invocation at my first official event as Chief Chaplain of the NYPD, standing alongside my colleague Chief Chaplain Timothy Cardinal Dolan.
Congratulations to all 968 newly inducted officers graduating from the New York City Police Department academy, and to the officers who were recognized and honored.
Policing is a calling that often requires split-second decisions. May the training, discipline, and wisdom you’ve gained guide you to make the right call when duty calls.
Wishing you safety, courage, and clarity as you begin this journey of service.
