On Sabbath, November 4, 2017, the Southeast SDA Church family recognized and prayed for one of their young adults who recently completed training and took the oath of office to serve as an Ohio State Highway patrol officer.
Johnnaya Norton graduated September 29, 2017 following 26 weeks of intense training as part of the Patrol’s 162nd Academy Class.
Trooper Norton was one of 87 cadets who completed courses which included crash investigation, criminal and traffic law, detection of impaired drivers, firearms, physical fitness, self defense and emergency vehicle operations. Trooper Norton has been assigned to the Warren District, Ashtabula Post.
We thank God for those officers who risk their lives each day to serve our communities and we are extremely proud to have one of our young adults make the decision to serve in this way. We lift Johnnaya up in prayer not only today, but every day as she fulfills her oath to protect and serve the citizens of Ohio.
