Gun Safety Presentation Sunday December 8 during Coffee Hour
All Saints Peace and Justice Team is continuing efforts to reduce gun violence by hosting a presentation during Coffee Hour on December 8 by San Leandro Police Officer Kevin Hackl, who has served as a Field Training Officer and Firearms Instructor. The event will be held in the Parish Hall from Noon to 12:45p.m.
Officer Hackl has been asked to discuss such questions as:
1) How can guns be stored safely in the home?
2) What does a gun owner learn by taking a gun safety course?
3) What can citizens do when confronted with a potentially violent gun-related incident?
Our parish prays weekly for the victims of gun violence and has written letters to politicians and merchants advocating eliminating sales of automatic weapons. Earlier this fall, we hosted a video on how gun violence has been reduced in other countries.
Feel free to invite others to this presentation. We will provide handouts on gun safety resources and – of course – refreshments! For more information, contact Maxine Sitts (maxine.sitts@gmail.com) or Tom Breckenridge (tom.breckenridge@gmail.com).
