Madison County Right to Life will have a garage/yard sale Saturday beginning at 8 a.m. at the Habitat for Humanity building (the former IGA store) on U.S. 25 N in Berea. For information, call Mary Ann Strunk at 623-8431.

The local Right to Life group will have a Celebrate Life banquet April 10. We will have more information in future weeks.

Union City Ruritan will meet at 7 p.m. Monday. Following the meal, Charlotte Wong of Lexington will speak to the group. Charlotte is the Kentucky Organ Donor Affiliates Education coordinator. The purpose of her program is to share information about organ and tissue donation, to answer questions and to encourage people to discuss this topic within their families.

There are many misunderstandings about donation and transplantation, and this will be an opportunity to learn and seek honest answers to questions you’ve always wanted to ask. This is an informal and low key presentation. Many people are not aware of a new Kentucky Donor Registry in place, indicating an individual’s desire to be an organ donor. Men may want to invite wives to attend this meeting.

Union City Ruritan has begun selling $5 raffle tickets for drawings to be conducted May 17 on Union City Day. The prizes will include a $1,000 riding lawn mower, two weed trimmers, a leaf blower and several cash prizes. The two businesses supplying these products are Southern States and Ace/Bluegrass Hardware.

Union City will be the place for pancakes on two Saturdays this month. From 7 to 10 a.m. Saturday, March 22, the Union City Christian Church youth will have a breakfast in the church fellowship hall. There is not a set price, but donations will be accepted for the youth fund. On Saturday, March 29, Union City Ruritan will have a pancake breakfast from 6 to 10 a.m.

Happy birthday to Darrell Allen and Justin Hunt today, Kathy Allen on Friday, Ruth Gross on Saturday, Kimberly Steele and Susan Kendrick on Sunday, Andrew McAfee on Tuesday and Emma Sue Noland on Wednesday.

If you have news, call me at 623-3880 or e-mail drtech@roadrunner.com.

Waco Pentecostal Tabernacle fundraiser Saturday Hi!

Here we are in fall again!

How do so many leaves fall off a tree and get scattered in so many different directions in one day?

How many more leaves are still on the tree that will turn and fall and be scattered in the days to come?

It almost makes one want to wait until all the leaves are off the tree before picking up a rake or broom. That might be better than raking and sweeping each day for many, many days to come.

Roadside clean-up set for Saturday How is everyone’s week going? I hope that everyone is having a great one. We have once again had a little mixture of weather, cool, rain, warm and sunshine. One can never tell what the March weather will be. Have you noticed the buttercups blooming? I also saw some bushes and trees blooming. I even saw a redbud tree blooming! There is such beauty in spring as it comes to life.

Take care of your community: Don’t litter! Hello readers. The late evening sun is shining through an upstairs window from where I’m sitting and I notice the brilliance of an outer ring that seems to flow toward the creek as it (sun) begins the journey into the night. I do love to just look and enjoy all we have on this Earth to appreciate. It’s always the little things that seem to make up the circle of life. Like the bright yellow daffodils blooming in Mrs. Callahan’s yard and the many buttercups alongside the road — the little things.

Volunteers needed for Union City Boy Scouts meeting Union City Baptist Church had a total of 60 people for the community soup supper last Saturday night. There were pinto beans, several different kinds of chili and some great desserts. While people were eating, some youths from the church provided a puppet show.

This may seem like the minutes of the last Monday’s Union City Ruritan meeting, but I am pleased to have so much news from local activities.

Waco Elementary honors Dr. Seuss How many times did you get pinched on Tuesday for not wearing green? How many times did you pinch yourself on Tuesday because you wanted to make sure you weren’t dreaming when the whole day was so spring-like beautiful? Ahhh, the birds chirping, the green finally peeping through the winter-brown ground, buttercups showing off their new spring bonnets and daylight after supper to enjoy a little porch time — it is getting here!

D-fend Against Colds Move over vitamin C. It’s vitamin D that seems to provide the strongest defense against the common cold, according to a recent study. Researchers at the University of Colorado studied 19,000 people about their health habits and took blood samples to determine the frequency of respiratory problems.

Killing Kevin I don’t watch much television. There are only a few shows I follow. I’ve come to care about the characters in those programs. They’re like family. So naturally it upsets me when homicidal scriptwriters kill them off. Without provocation — or my permission.

One of my favorite shows is “Monk,” about an obsessive, compulsive detective. Several episodes have featured his upstairs neighbor, Kevin Dorfman. Kevin is riddled with personality quirks. He talks too much — about nothing. He rambles on about all the places he’s ever lived.

God’s rainbow a sign of an everlasting relationship God’s promise of a rainbow in the clouds indicating a permanent and unbreakable bond between God and the creatures of His world is a strong and assuring promise that lies at the very foundation of Christianity. We are told throughout the scriptures that nothing can separate us from God, not even our own sinfulness. In all of life, there are few feelings, needs and insecurities that are more totally and completely fulfilled than when we have a firm and unquestionable conviction that we are not alone, and are wanted and loved! Amen.
