KIRKSVILLE —
Hello everyone. Did you know we have a great basketball player in our community – a starter in fact – and also a race car driver in the top three of the bomber division?
They attend Midway College.
I have you thinking now, don’t I?
It is Jordon Renner. Oh, by the way, her middle name is Nichole. Sorry, Jeff, you get honorable mention. I know Jeff Sr. and Kay are so proud of both of their kids. It is always nice to hear how well someone’s children are prospering.
Full Gospel Tabernacle has just installed a new PA system. It sounds great. A lot of hard work went into the installation. Thanks for all the volunteers who helped. Allan already has started with a sit-down lesson on the system. He plans to expand his knowledge on this state-of-the-art system with a few more instructional lessons. He is going to be one heck of a sound man. Thanks, Allan, for putting in all your work to make it the best.
Well, I just had a birthday. For my birthday, my mother bought me a new tractor seat. It actually is on dad’s tractor he just bought which I will be using on his farm this year. He purchased an older Ford tractor. Mom knew I had to sit on one of dad’s tractors a few years ago that had no cushion. It was just metal. That made for a long, hard day. Thanks, Mom.
I know there are several prayer requests throughout our community and church families as well as one of our special doctors. Remember all those who are going through troubling times. Don’t forget to keep Tyler Scrivner in your prayers. He is in Japan now.

Volunteers needed for tornado shelter
Hi!
I’ve felt (almost) like I was at Daytona Beach lately, what with the sultry days and daily afternoon thunder showers. Now, if I could just look out my back door and see the ocean .... ah-h-h. -
Do you remember these remedies?
Most people remember Carters Little Liver Pills.
It was the spring tonic used to thin your blood and get you moving. I remember when the FDA made them remove the word liver from the label as there was no proof it helped in that area. -

Muffins, and not the kind you wear on one’s head...
I spent a couple of weeks this past month in Texas. One of my best friends who lives in the Dallas area developed the best recipe to use bran in a muffin. I have found this to be a great breakfast meal epically if one is one the go and no time to stop and fix a meal. Just pop into the microwave oven to reheat

Local farmers markets abound in Madison County
We all know we should eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day, but many of us don’t get the recommended servings. Fruits and vegetables are important to our diet because they provide necessary nutrients and are high in dietary fiber and low in calories, fat and cholesterol. They provide a variety of phytochemicals, antioxidants and nutrients that help you stay healthy in a variety of ways.
