And now it's time for Church Chat . . .

Hello, I’m the Church Lady and this is ‘Church Chat’. Does your community have a Neighborhood Watch Program? If you have suspicious activity going on it might be a good idea to form one. It’s easy and a MUST for any community who wants to take charge and get crime out of their neighborhood toot-sweet!

An effective tool for some Neighborhood Watch programs is to use is a citizen patrol. Citizen patrols are volunteers who walk or drive an area on a regular basis to report incidents and problems to the police and provide a visible presence that deters criminal activity. A citizen patrol can cover your entire neighborhood and can contact the police dispatcher through two-way radios or cellular phones (whichever you prefer). Cameras or video equipment can also be used to record suspicious activity.

Our Neighborhood Watch Program is coming along nicely. We went door-to-door to recruit members and got everyone involved; young and old, single and married, renter and homeowner. We will plan accordingly and we will establish a well-organized Neighbor Watch Program that any community would be proud of. Our first meeting will be soon and I can’t wait to make our neighborhood safer and improve our quality of life.

I hope that our Neighborhood Watch will be equipped with a Patrol Vehicle and also have people patrolling on foot throughout the community. As you can just imagine this can be rather dangerous, but I found a nice liiiiiiiittle tool that is a must for any Neighborhood Watch.













I already ordered mine and I know I will be the envy of everyone in our Neighborhood Watch Program.
