Hello everyone. The Community Center will be hosting its annual Thanksgiving gathering. The churches from Poosey and Kirksville, Kirksville Baptist, Christian Church, Full Gospel Tabernacle, Mt. Pleasant, the Poosey Community Church, Salem and the Gilead Church will be joining together to celebrate a day of thanksgiving for their past blessings. The celebration will be on Nov. 25 at 7 p.m. It will be a potluck meal. Everyone is invited to hear a good message from several of the church pastors.
Christmastime is nearing and I know many of the churches already are making plans for their special celebration. On Dec. 4th from 6 to 8 p.m., Kirksville Baptist Church will be having a preschool and children’s Christmas activity by presenting, “A walk Through the Christmas Story.” Mark the date on your calendar and bring a child.
I hope everyone had the opportunity to hear the Full Gospel Tabernacle Singers on WLJC on Thursday night. If you missed it, you can access it on the Internet under WLJC archives and click on Nov.12.
Leaves are everywhere in my yard. I think Duane and I are going to hire the Boy Scout Troop 762 to do leaf clean up. I know I am lazy, but it is a lot of work and they do need fundraisers. That sound like a good excuse, don’t you think?
The clothing bank at the Community Center will be open this Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon. Molly says that new clothes comes in weekly. So, if you have a need, stop by and visit. Remember this is always on the third Saturday of the month.
Friday night will be the Fall Family Fun night at the Salem Church in Poosey. The festivities will begin at 6 p.m. with games and a cake walk; at 7 p.m. will be the chili supper, and then at 8 p.m. the hayride. If you need directions, call Johnny and Patty Davis at 328-4118.

Is MSG (monosodium glutamate) harmful?
Monsodium gluatamate (MSG) is a flavor enhancer often added to Chinese food, soups, processed meats and canned vegetables. The use of MSG remains controversial despite a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) statement that it is safe. Because of this, the FDA requires that whenever MSG is added, that it be listed on the label.

Common-sense job hunting
I spent a day with a high-powered and high-profile friend who mentioned that he has more than 700 people a year ask him to help get a new job.
He’s not in the employment business, but is super well connected.
Every now and then, he gets the right person to the right job. -
It’s a love thing
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long, we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus, our Lord.” — Romans 8:35-39

Managing the calving season
Providing sound management during the calving season can mean more live calves.
Excessive losses can mean the difference between a year’s profit or loss for a beef producer.
It is important to have a short calving period to allow frequent observation and assistance if needed. -
Spinach: It’s not just for Popeye anymore
A spinach-loving reader recently approached me to request a column on things to do with her favorite vegetable.
“Favorite vegetable?” You may ask, and rightly so.
When many of us were growing up …and we’re talking Baby Boomers here, the only spinach product known to us was the stuff that came in a can, and it was, in a word, horrible! -
Topping trees is a bad practice
Topping damages hundreds of trees each year in Kentucky.
Many people are unaware of the detrimental effects of this practice.
Topping involves the drastic removal or cutting back of large branches in mature trees leaving stubs.
Topping can make a tree hazardous and reduce its life. -

Preschool screenings and birthday surprises
Hi!
... and the wind blew and blew. Perhaps this is the windy season!
Where is the snow? Students are starting to do snow dances, hoping they can coax enough snow to fall so they can make a proper snowman.
(I'm sure they hope it will fall on a weekend so they won’t have to miss school! lol) - More Lifestyles & Community Headlines
