For a number of years now Peace Officers for Christ International has taken teams of law enforcement officers from the United States to countries in South and Central America in order to provide free training to Central and South American Police Officers. The goal of this training has been to share officer safety tactics as well as the importance of moral, ethical and character values with our brother and sister officers. For the Christian Police Officer, officer safety tactics include mental, physical and spiritual aspects.
Guatemala's Academia Policia Nacional Civil
After this training session several hundred of these Guatemalan Police Officers indicated decisions for Jesus Christ .Training sessions consist of various officer safety tactics being demonstrated for and then practiced by the local officers. In addition to teaching physical tactics, the U.S. Law Enforcement Officers stress the moral and character aspects of authority and law enforcement. To further this important aspect of law enforcement the training sessions end with the presentation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and the distribution of a Bible to each of the police officers.
