Last week, we had the privilege of visiting the preschool students at Zions Cause Baptist Church. They had a bunch of good questions for us, enjoyed touring the patrol vehicles, and even gave us some original artwork. One student asked the question, but they were all happy to hear that we would, in fact, catch the bad guys if they tried stealing all of their toys.
