National Faith & Blue weekend will be observed Oct. 6-9 in cities of DeKalb County.

The mission is to “facilitate safer and stronger communities by engaging officers and residents through the connections of faith-based community organizations,” said the Rev. Markel Hutchins, national lead organizer of National Faith & Blue Weekend (Faith & Blue) and chairman/CEO of MovementForward Inc., with national offices in Atlanta.

Last year, Georgia had the most Faith & Blue events in the South with 304.

The Georgia Association of Chiefs of Police and the Georgia Sheriffs’ Association are sponsoring and encouraging law enforcement agencies throughout Georgia to participate in Faith & Blue.
