City Safety Patrols sends message of Goodwill, Bristol, UK

PRAYER PATROLS AND CITY SAFETY PATROLS will be out and about on the streets of Bristol for 7 days starting 18th December through 24th December 2019.

They will be spreading their message of peace and safety, and goodwill to all men by way of encouraging NO to Drink and Driving.

The Patrols visited schools in order to share about their endeavors to help keep Bristol safe and as the season of festivities gets underway so too the levels of drink and driving crimes. The Reverend Palmer and her team of well-wishers hope that their presence will act as a deterrent and reminder to potential offenders.  She says “I hope that our little efforts over the period leading up to Christmas will help to lower accidents resulting from drinking and driving so that all may enjoy a happy and safe Christmas and New Year.”

The dates for ‘No to Drink and Driving’  patrols are as follows:

  1. Wednesday – December 18th morning Cabot Circus Shopping Mall.

How do we hope to achieve this? Our goal is to give out our ‘Life Loves You’ stickers to passersby, on a day that is regarded all over the world by many as Good Friday.”

They are inviting everyone to come and spread the love around town. They will be setting up a stand at the front-side of Debenhams, in Broadmead Shopping Quarter, Bristol from 11 am to 1 pm. There will be balloons, stickers with ‘Life Loves You’ written on them, and of course, a free Easter Egg.

The Emphasis behind this Initiative is the powerful, positive 3 worded sentence.  They hope their efforts will raise the morale of shoppers and visitors to the area,  to create a greater sense of worth and wellbeing,  as well as a safety deterrent.  Reverend Palmer, the visionary behind the project says, “When a person feels valued they are able to value someone else too. A small gesture such as our ‘Life Loves You sticker’ is very likely to create a ripple effect of an environment of charged with positivity, love, harmony, and peace. When a person learns that their own life is lovable, they can begin to see the value of life in another, hatred through fear of difference, and intimidation gives way to self-esteem, tolerance and kindness so that we can all enjoy a more peaceful and just society.”

Sometimes people just need a reminder … a little love can go a long way towards healing old wounds. We hope our presence will help to  Make Bristol Better – Peacemakers City Patrols.
