"In God We Trust"

The Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office is in the process of displaying our Nation’s motto, “In God We Trust”, on all of its marked patrol vehicles.

Sheriff Chris Francis has been considering the display of this motto on the patrol vehicles for the last several months. However, funding this project has been an obstacle.

Pastor David Ledford, of Fairview Baptist Church, in Golden Valley, informed Sheriff Francis that the church wanted to support this project by funding the purchase of the decals. Pastor Ledford also stated that the church would continue to fund this project as new marked vehicles were added to the fleet.

“I am very appreciative of the church’s donation that has allowed this project to get underway,” said Sheriff Francis. On a more personal note, Sheriff Francis shared “I whole heartedly believe in our Nation’s motto and am proud that it will be displayed on the Rutherford County Sheriff’s vehicles.”
