  • New Routes

    Edward Martin|Aug 17, 2023

    Weather and time permitting, I let my dog, The Mighty Shmooie, choose the route we walk every morning. We have five basic routes and, with the exception of going into people’s yards, he gets to choose. His favorites are usually a mile to a mile and a half although, at age twelve and a half, I’ve noticed he tends to prefer the shorter walks more than he used to. There’s a two mile route but we rarely take that one anymore. Even though Shmoo doesn’t have as much energy for longer walks at his age...

  • God Is the Great Promise Keeper

    Dave Carroll|Aug 17, 2023

    The theme of our vacation Bible Schools this summer was “The Chain of God’s Promises”. The lessons covered some of promises made by God to mankind from the first sin by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to the return of Christ at what is called the Rapture of the Church. We had 17 kids attend in Elliston and 23 in Wolf Creek. One young student in Wolf Creek asked Jesus to be her Savior. That was the best part of two very good weeks teaching God’s timeless truths and promises to these 40 kids. Of course, we had excellent help and support...

  • Rediscovering Your Local Library

    Nancy Royan, Librarian, Wedsworth Memorial Library|Aug 17, 2023

    Through the course of Life many of us have discovered a great many things: the post office key doesn’t work in the car and vice versa; things do not cook very well if the oven’s not on; coffee tastes better when you add the coffee; and clothes come out cleaner if you put them in the washing machine before running through all the cycles. Life is a journey of Discovery. So add one more trail to this journey, come discover your library. Every child deserves a best beginning and lifetime of discovering. Every child deserves a life of reading and...
