2006 FDIC Indy Photo's and comments by Scott Nasby

Photo's not in any order of event

This year was my first time to attend FDIC Indy and I was in total amazement of the City of Indianapolis and the RCA Dome. Dan Clegg gave my wife, Pam, and I a tour and told us that the dome's roof was rubber and was held up with air pressure. I thought, “Wow, what great engineering God has done."  Since time began, God has engineered this rock we are temporally on, and I will never get over what He can do.  I'm always reminded of His Majesty every time I see the sun come up or when something is pointed out to me that my simple mind cannot phantom. This past weekend I saw more fire apparatus, T-shirts and novelties all in one place than I have ever seen in one time.  I also got to see some of the most fantastic people in my life― folks that I never thought I would meet except in the pages of the Encourager―

Soldiers for Christ who fight the fire each day on the apparatus but off of it as well. I met people like Bob Crum, a retired firefighter from Denver Colorado for a few years and one of three of our FCF Founding Fathers, who is still spreading the love of Christ. I spent time with Dan Clegg who retired from one department and still stays active with them as their chaplain. I also met Craig Duck who was first-in at the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, and is organizing a bicycle ride from San Francisco to the Pentagon for a five-year commemoration ride. And then there's Gay and Sue who take the time to keep encouraging us to keep our chins up and pressing on when the enemy is closing in ready to attack. These are just a few of God's Soldiers who are out in the trenches. This is why I want to tighten my combat boots for God and not just watch. After all there are two ways to get to the top of an oak tree, one is to climb it and the other is to sit on an acorn, and I don't want to sit.   May God Bless Scott Nasby Kanawha Valley Chapter West Virginia
