Sometimes this job is ….. interesting. I met with a woman whose mother died earlier this month (she was 108). She came to me because she witnessed “a spiritual battle between evil and good for mom’s soul,” and described in great detail what she witnessed.

She asked if I would pray over mom’s ashes as a final eviction of evil so that she wouldn’t have to worry about the evil spirit trying to reclaim her while her ashes awaited burial.

Trumpet blowing warning:

Been out to an awards ceremony tonight, collecting this.
The citation that was read out had me crawling up my own arse with embarrassment.

Essentially, it’s for the support I gave to officers in the aftermath of the double child murder last year, but it also spoke about other stuff I do to support the force. All of which I am happy to do, but my management are critical of.

Which is why I’m sharing it here, but not with my bosses.
