From what I know of the NYPD, this isn't normal

God clearly gave my team some favor today in Jamaica Queens. When we were leaving we needed to briefly illegally park the van at a bus stop to load the prayer station. As we were finishing, a police car pulled up behind us and three officers got out and approached me asking who the driver was (which I was not). I explained that the driver was in the driver's seat but that if anyone needed to be yelled at, I should be that person. I proceeded to explain who we were and what we were doing. Something shifted. They said “oh its with the church,” I replied “yes.” They gave each other a little shrug, said it was ok, and promptly walked back to their car. I said “God bless” and also didn't stick around.

Crazy stuff. Maybe I didn't explain this incident well enough, but we certainly received God's favor.
