  • True?   Every gun that is made, every warship launched,
    every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense,
    a theft from those who hunger and are not fed,
    those who are cold and are not clothed.
    The world in arms is not spending money alone.
    It is spending the sweat of its laborers,
    the genius of its scientists,
    the hopes of its children…
    This is not a way of life at all,
    in any true sense.
    Under the cloud of threatening war,
    it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

    President Dwight D. Eisenhower
    April 16, 1953

  • Can anyone help one of Our Best:   Sabrina has been invited to be a People to People Student Ambassador Program from the Dallas area traveling to Spain, France, and Italy inthe summer of 2009. She is looking to do some chores or some baby sitting to earn

    Romans 15:  May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
    Matthew 3:  I am baptizing you with water, for repentance, but the one who is coming after me is mightier than I.  I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

    From Lynda Fleming:

    Senior Citizens Angel Tree:
    We are partnering again this year with the Wellness Center for Older Adults in Plano. There are a variety of ways you can help:
    ~ If you would like to sponsor a senior, please text Lynda Fleming at 972-754-0823 with the number of seniors you would like to sponsor and a budget amount.
    ~ If you would like to make a contribution, please Venmo her @LyndaFleming and she’ll be happy to shop for you.
    ~ if you would like to donate $20 gift cards, the most requested places are Walmart, Subway, Target and Aldi.

    Thanks so much for your support and generosity!!

    I asked Lynda how much it would cost to sponsor a person.   She said  it would probably be $20-$30. They typically want pajamas or a couple pieces of clothing or a small appliance, things like that…
    She also said The Wellness Center will contact as many of their people as they can to ask for needs and wants. If they don’t need anything specific, we give them a gift card depending on if they asked for a restaurant, groceries or general items.
