Four law enforcement couples recently traveled to Alaska for the Marriage Resiliency Retreat, hosted by the Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT), a ministry that helps those in the aftermath of crisis or disaster. This event was the third of its kind this summer.
The marriage retreat is designed for law enforcement officers who have been injured in the line of duty or experienced an officer-involved shooting. After facing such a tragic event, the outreach gives law enforcement families the chance to reconnect with one another and in their relationship with God. Over the course of several days, attendees go to multiple sessions hosted by retired law enforcement officers, experience outdoor activities like hiking and fly fishing, and take time to dig deep into God's Word.
"It was a privilege to spend time with these law enforcement officers & their spouses in Alaska this week for our @BGEA Marriage Resiliency Retreat," Franklin Graham tweeted. "I thank God for them & their service."
