When the police failed the church
Dear Sir,
It is with great displeasure that I write this letter to you about an issue regarding noise nuisance. The Priest and Parishioners of All Saints’ Anglican Church in New Amsterdam had to suffer once again at our Christmas Mass held on 24th December, 2017 because of the deafening sounds emanating from the music sets around our church.
This happened despite the Priest in Charge of the Church sending a letter of request to the Commander of “B” Division, who always boasts of having the Division under control, has the public interest at heart and is open to complaints.
The Police were out in their numbers directing traffic and blocking portions of the Main Street but the music sets were blaring on the makeshift bars and BBQ tents. All that we had asked was for ninety minutes of peace and tranquility.
Parishioners who were in Church made numerous phone calls to the Police but to no avail. It leaves one to wonder who you can depend on. After all, it was Christmas and Christ is the reason for the season.
Yours sincerely
Concerned Parishioner
