Trenton National Guardsmen left Wednesday for Kuwait Gibson County Fair opens Monday ‘Southern Nights Under Midway Lights’ is theme

BY DANNY JONES - THE GAZETTE During the wee hours of the morning Wednesday, family members of Trenton National Guardsmen said good-byes to loved ones at the National Guard Armory.

It was naturally an emotional time. Hugs, kisses and tears abounded for spouses and children left behind as soldiers boarded chartered buses for a trek to Memphis International Airport, given an escort all the way by Gibson County Sheriff’s Department.

One hundred seventy-five soldiers of the 230th Engineer Battalion’s first leg of the trip took them to Fort Bliss, TX, then

Yorkville Fire Department hosts annual washer pitchin’ contest

BY CINDY EAST The 18th Annual International Washer Pitchin’ Contest was held Saturday, August 20th at Yorkville City Park. The event was well attended and a successful fundraiser for the Yorkville Fire Department.

Fire Chief Jon Murray welcomed the crowd at the community center. Steve Murray gave the opening prayer. Lisa Roberts sang the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ accompanied by her husband Bradley on the guitar.

City councilman Mack Zarecor, at the request of members of the Yorkville Fire Department, named Gibson County Sheriff Chuck Arnold and EMS Director Starr Arnold as honorary fire department members. Zarecor thanked them for everything they do for their town and presented each with a t-shirt and a letter of thanks. Arnold also sent inmates to help with the park clean up. “This county is my life,� said Arnold. “Yorkville is a special bright spot in the county. Its citizens are Christian and patriotic volunteers who work

together. Be sure and stop by the Veteran’s Memorial in the cemetery that was dedicated this past spring. It will renew your strength and faith in being Americans. I went to the Armory as 175 county residents left last week. There were people weeping but as the guardsmen left, they all stood by the road with flags and sparklers and cheered as they left. I hope our merciful Father will bring them home safely. It’s time we worry about fixing our own country and not somebody else’s.�

Yorkville Mayor John ‘Bubba’ Higdon also welcomed everyone. “Have a good time and be good sports,� he said. He thanked the fire department for all they do for the city. He also thanked Arnold and Cody Childress who does the policing for Yorkville.

State Senator Lowe Finney and State Representative Curtis Halford threw out the first washers for the event.

Finney said, “You all make it so easy to service this area. We get to know a lot of the sheriffs and see page 14

Free movies on the silver screen

BY MICHAEL ENOCHS Many years ago Dyer had a movie theater downtown that was a popular spot to go to watch the latest releases from the magical land of Hollywood, enjoy the company of friends and neighbors and munch buttery popcorn.

That old, brick building, along with a few others in that section are gone now, replaced by lawn grass with one section belonging to Les Poppenheimer along with another building, and the larger portion belonging to the Methodist Church.

The north wall of the Poppenheimer building was previously shared as a support wall with the old Dyer Theater and some of the plaster that has been removed had the names of many of the young moviegoers written on it.

This may have had a part in inspiring Tom Lannom to come up with the idea to put up a large screen on that wall and show free movies. Lannom said he had the idea and expressed it to several people. Some of those people said they had thoughts similar to his about showing

movies on that spot again like in the good old days.

Lannom didn’t just let it go as a passing wish; he acted on the idea. He talked to even more people and soon see page 2

The West Tennessee Drug Task Force, whose agents include officers from Milan, Trenton, Humboldt Police and the Gibson County Sheriff’s Office, have made 11 drug arrests in nine days. The case investigations involved the promotion and manufacture of methamphetamine, possession of methamphetamine and marijuana and initiation of the process to manufacture methamphetamine.

Charged in the Trenton General Sessions Court with promotion of meth manufacturing and initiation of the process to manufacture meth are: James Frankie Campbell , 40, of 138 A l a m o H i g h w a y , Campbell Tr e n t o n and Kisha L a n c a s t e r, 32, of 641 Gibson Road, Trenton.

They are held in the Lancaster Complex under $75,000 bond with a September 20th court date.

Pitchin’ Time

BY DANNY JONES THE GAZETTe Opening ceremonies for the 156th annual Gibson County Fair will be at 6 p.m. Monday, August 29, and will continue through Saturday, September 3.

Organized through a Legislative Act in 1855 which encouraged counties in Tennessee to hold annual county agricultural fairs, the fair is the oldest continuous running fair in the South. This year’s theme is ‘Southern Nights Under Midway Lights’ and will feature such events as Myers International Midways Carnival, Pope’s Concessions, a petting zoo, shows and sales, live demonstrations, beauty revues, mud bog races and a truck and tractor show to name a few.

The fair has been held annually since its beginning with the exception of the Civil War years and the first years of reconstruction. In 1869 it started up again and has been held every year since. The fairgrounds have been at the present location since 1966. The fair is a non-profit organization operating under a charter from the State of Tennessee.

It operates under the direction of the officers and directors of the association, headed by William Lowery, president, interested in seeing it continue to see page 7

The Gibson County School District (GCSD) board approved the project at its August 11th meeting, and board members sent commendations to the Medina Elementary PTO through principal Calvin Bailey. “The PTO has had money set aside for two years, and they’ve asked me to start using it,� Bailey said. “We’re not asking for any money from the board, but we just need your okay to proceed with it.�

During formation, CSM Tim Madison said, “Family members, thank you for allowing me to take your soldiers overseas.

I will bring them back!� he emphasized.

He went on to say, “It has been a long nine months preparation time and now it is time to go do our job and then come home.�

Insight & Opinion

Clayburn Peeples reports: British researchers released the results of a study last week that found that families which include a child with food allergies are routinely made to feel by acquaintances and family members that their children’s allergies are a “frivolous and selfindulgent fad invented and maintained by attention seeking people.”

They wasted their time doing the research. They should have just called my wife and me instead. One of our daughters is allergic to milk and eggs and until last year, was allergic to peanuts as well.

And while it would be a stretch to say people think we are “frivolous and selfindulgent” or “attention seeking” in our efforts to protect our daughter, we have encountered more than a little indifference and skepticism, and in a few cases, downright disbelief.

Usually, maybe always,

The dangers of food allergies

this is because the people in question don’t really know much about serious food allergies. Many think conditions like lactose intolerance and hay fever are allergies, but they are nothing at all like the kind of life threatening food allergies that killed an Atlanta teenager last week.

A 15-year-old boy, he died of anaphylaxis after eating what he thought was an ordinary chocolate chip cookie. Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially life-threatening reaction characterized by wheezing, breathing difficulty, vomiting, airway swelling, persistent coughing and a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Such reactions can be, and sometimes are, fatal. The cookie the young boy ate had some bits of peanut in it. That’s what killed him.

Sadly, a relative, aware of his condition, but unaware of the risk of feeding him

something she didn’t know was safe, gave him the cookie. We run into that all the time. People assume foods don’t have peanuts or milk or eggs in them, but the fact is, all sorts of foods do, and people who don’t deal personally with life threatening food allergies just don’t realize how dangerous ordinary, wholesome foods can be to those who suffer from such allergies.

So they often see parents of allergic children as being over protective and overly cautious. Their own children may have once been allergic to eggs or milk, and they always point that out and report that he or she “grew out of it.” But there is a difference in an allergy that causes you to get an upset stomach when you eat the wrong thing and one that causes your throat to constrict to the point that you can’t breathe.

So it is easy to see why parents of children with severe allergies find themselves constantly dealing with well meaning but disbelieving relatives and friends who think they overdramatize their situations and worry too much about their allergic children.

And hey, it’s not easy being a kid with a food allergy either, even when everyone around is supportive, but all too often, everyone is not.

The

Americans whose life span covers the decades over which much of our liberty has been regulated away.

The acceleration of our loss over the last few years has awakened us and we are engaging in a political fight to restore Constitutional Government to America. Our core beliefs are rather simple.

They are constitutionally limited government, fiscal responsibility, and free market economic principles.

Which of these things do you find objectionable?

Our political elite find these things offensive and threatening. It is to their political advantage to spend our children’s future but it is that environment that we hope to change (pun intended).

They would like for us to believe that we are all going to receive great benefits from government that someone else is going to pay for. In fact you are that someone else. More recently that someone else is our children and grandchildren.

It takes a nation of moral degenerates to knowingly spend the future earnings of their children.

The Tea Party is the vehicle by which ‘We the People’ have the collective power to stop our politicians from spending our future, unless we indeed have become a nation of moral degenerates in which case we will most certainly decline as a nation.

We are simply Americans who have come to realize that the establishment Washington politicians of both flavors are spending us and our children quickly toward insolvency as a nation.

We are business people, lots of veterans, factory workers, doctors, pastors, engineers, lawyers, retirees and generally people of all walks of life. We are mostly older conservative

because even supportive relatives and friends make food preparation mistakes.

Wait staff, and even chefs and managers, at restaurants unknowingly offer false assurances about the lack of allergens in their food.

It’s a lot simpler to just stay at home and avoid events where food will be served.

Or you can carry food for your allergic child with you, which is what my wife and I often do, and while it is somewhat awkward and makes us a little selfconscious, we’re grateful we are familiar enough with food allergies to know when to do that.

And besides, Margaret’s brown bag treats are usually tastier than the house offerings the other kids are having anyway. I mean, who wants an Oreo or Chips Ahoy when you can have one of Rhonda’s chocolate cupcakes instead?

Not me for sure.

and increases heart function when a person is experiencing anaphylaxis.

The epinephrine will counteract the anaphylactic reaction to a toxic food and save a child’s life, but many food allergic teenagers, like the young Atlanta teen who died last week, choose not to carry them. Most who refuse to do so say it is just too embarrassing.

Some even go so far as to say they would rather die, literally, than carry an EpiPen everywhere they go. That’s how badly our society stigmatizes children with allergies.

So parents do the best they can. At home that’s inconvenient, but manageable. Parents can control what their children eat at the dining room table and in the den, but when kids venture beyond the front yard, life can become really challenging. Parents must be constantly vigilant,

About 35% of children say they have experienced what they consider harassment, taunting or bullying at school because of their allergies, and more than 20% report being harassed or taunted by teachers or staff.

Forty-three percent say other children have waved food they are allergic to in their faces. Sixty-four percent say they have been taunted. That may be one reason children with allergies are more prone to depression, stress and anxiety. They not only have to struggle with their food allergies; they also must commonly bear harassment from their peers.

Children with severe allergies are told they must carry EpiPens with them everywhere they go. EpiPens are syringe like devices loaded with epinephrine, a hormone that opens breathing passages

Free movies on the silver screen from page 1 had some helpers in the form of concerned citizens such as Dyer Alderman Chris Younger and Donny Cox, Shane Sims and Chris Gammons.

They received permission from the Methodist Church to use their part of the property, and received Poppenheimer’s permission to use his section of the property as well as the wall of his building to serve as a backdrop for the movie screen. After this, City Lumber Company pitched in to donate the materials for the present screen that Lannom, Younger, Cox, Sims, and Gammons put up.

The resourceful Lannom shopped around and discovered a good projector at a very reasonable

price. So, in the tradition of Barnum and Bailey’s Greatest Show on EarthLet the show begin!

And the shows have begun, with people finding out by word-of-mouth.

People have been slowing down or stopping as they come through on the street while the movies are playing. Although the whole thing is still in its infancy, Lannom and all the volunteers have big plans for the future.

Lannom shared his vision for the project: “The movies will be shown for free. We are seeking funding from the local businesses and individuals too. They will be mentioned on the screen before and after the movie.

If there is enough funding, we will set up concessions

for burgers, hot dogs, and popcorn. It will be strictly for the community. Any profits will go to a restoration of the wall. We are aiming to plaster the entire wall, and use the center for the screen. Patrick Fullwood will paint a mural of the Old Dyer Theater on the rest of the wall.”

Lannom concluded, “We will show movies in the spring and fall on Saturday nights as the weather permits. There will be a blanket section in the front and a lawn chair section in the back. This will be a family activity. Children must be accompanied by an adult. This will be something for the community to have on Saturday nights. Times for the start of the movies will be published.

GCSD board okays iPod from page 1 sent information last week explaining the purpose of the project.

“Teachers will use educational Apps to enhance student learning in all subject areas, with our main focus being reading and math,” she said. “Second and third grade teachers plan to incorporate these devices into literacy stations and use them when practicing math computation.

Kindergarten and first grade teachers will use the iPods for practicing letter sounds and names as well as identifying numbers, colors, and shapes.

These devices have many practical applications that will address all State and Common Core curriculum standards.”

The PTO is purchasing three iPods per classroom and included $1,000 for iTunes cards to purchase Apps and one extra iPod. Bailey asked the board for permission to spend up to $25,000. “[The PTO] has been very proactive,” said Eddie Pruett, Director of Schools. “This will be a great opportunity for the kids in the classrooms and will give us an opportunity to see how these work.”

“That’s awesome,” said board member Treva Maitland. “Send kudos to the PTO. It’s wonderful.”

Last year, GCSD installed access points at MES, enabling

the building to be completely wireless as part of a push to give the entire school district instant Internet access.

Board members also approved several bids at the Aug. 11th meeting, including a $63,400 bid from Watson Roofing to replace the gym roof at Spring Hill School.

Tolley & Lowe won the low bid of $15,990 for the exterior wall coating.

Terry Cunningham, Director of Finance, said Watson Roofing put the original roof on the gym 25 years ago.

“We’ve gotten our money’s worth with it,” he said.

Lynn Tucker, Director of Special Education & Technology, presented tech bids for a mobile lab at Gibson County High School.

PCS out of Louisville, Tenn. provided the best bid at $17,370 for 30 laptops, which Tucker said was “considerably lower than what we put in the budget.”

Board members questioned spending money on laptops instead of investing in tablet technology, but Tucker said based on the high school’s requests, the mobile lab was the best option.

“For what they want to use them for, laptop computers make sense for this school for what they want right now,” Tucker said.

Jared Myracle, an assistant principal at GCHS, said the English teachers tie up the library computer lab four weeks each semester.

“Pending this new mobile lab, they’ve agreed to do this research in their classrooms, which will free up the library for eight weeks,” he said.

The board approved an $8,313.50 bid for bread from Interstate Brands and a $53,355.40 bid for ice cream from Turner.

Paige Garner, Director of Food Services, told the board that the system’s current milk vendor, Goldenrod Dairy, had agreed with the Tri-Area Consortium that includes GCSD to roll over and continue the 2010-11 bid conditions for the 2011-12 school year ($23,176.75).

“The roll over is advantageous to all systems in the consortium due to the escalated milk prices that would have caused milk bids to increase,” she said.

Garner also said that consortium members expected increases to bread and ice cream but were a little surprised at the final tally. She cited choosing wheat products over white bread, higher production costs and higher fuels costs as key factors in the increase but noted that GCSD cafeterias are keeping their prices the same.

Mother, daughter charged in theft from page 1 967 North Main in Dyer.

The items were found to have been sold at the recycling center in Trenton.

As a result of the investigation Joalyce Buffone, 29, and her mother Kathleen Buffone, 60, of 916 McKnight St, Rutherford

have been arrested. Both are charged with theft of property and burglary.

They were processed at the Gibson County Correctional Complex and released on $1,000 bond. A preliminary hearing is set for September 20th in Gibson County General

“These arrests are good examples of our resources responding to a criminal situation. It is very important for the community and law enforcement to keep the pressure on drug dealers. We will continue to seek out and prosecute those who choOse to threaten our communities by possessing or manufacturing illegal drugs,” said Gibson County Sheriff Chuck Arnold.

To hear what God had to say to him, Ananias had to overcome what he knew about Paul as well as his fear of persecution.

Christy Skelton led us in closing prayer.

Our Sunday night worship hour began with Elaine Fields playing the piano as all the children of the church blessed us by singing “I’m Gonna Stand on My Rock.�

Bro. Steve welcomed everyone and we began our Bible drill. He then led us in a time of prayer before bringing us our message from Genesis 2. Mike Fields dismissed services in prayer as the hymn “Just As I Am� was sung.

Clora’s Chapel Last Wednesday night, August 17th, the Clora’s Chapel Family and Pastor Myles traveled to Mt. Pleasant Missionary Baptist Church in Pinson.

Pastor Myles delivered a soul-stirring message titled, “Stubborn Unbelievers.�

The choir sang and we had a high time in the Lord.

Saturday at 2 p.m. there was a going-to-college dinner for Sister Desiree Barnett. She is on her way to MTSU. Our prayers go with her.

Sunday School was great!

Elder Keith Harris did a fine job of teaching and the class discussed the lesson with excitement.

In our morning worship service, the spirit of the Lord came into the house as we had a spiritual devotion.

Songs of Zion were sung by the Young Adult Choir, and Sister Shinnell Ivie was the Worship Leader.

The spirit was all over the church so much so that Pastor Myles did not have to preach.

Everyone could feel the presence of the Lord. There was not a dry eye and a lot of praise and worship were taking place. God is so good!

Brother Anthony Swift came to church and we were glad to see him.

We were glad to see Sister Lucy Kimble and friend in service. Mrs. Mary Harris

Golden Agers

By Robin McNeil was present again this Sunday and she was singing and praising God! After the spirit filled service, at 4 p.m. pictures of various auxiliaries were taken for our souvenir booklet.

Brother Thomas Lawrence and Annette were the photographers and they had a lot of patience with us.

We were glad to see Sister Doris Bradford back from Chicago after the funeral of her aunt. She reported that everyone was doing fine and everything went well.

On Monday night Clora’s Chapel Sanctuary Choir did a fine job of singing in Beech Grove Baptist Church Revival. We thank Sister Treva Hunt for playing music for us.

Rev. Garland White is the evangelist for the week and he let us know in sermon that, “Everyone should know who Jesus is.�

Sunday will be Homecoming Day! We will have guests from Ransom Temple CPCA in Nashville.

Rev. Dr. Rosemary Herron will deliver the afternoon message. We are looking forward to a great time. This will be our 127th church anniversary. Everyone is cordially invited!

Clora’s Chapel says to all: Jesus is our rock, our sword, and our shield.

Have a good week!

for improved health for Dot Oliver, Barbara Watson, and Carolyn Eddlemon. Prayers were also extended for Ed Pratt and Emily Parks.

With Anne Thompson’s piano accompaniment, Kenny McEwen led the group in singing “Heaven Came Down,� “Just a Closer Walk with Thee,� and “Sweet Hour of Prayer.� Kenny sang “The Old Rugged Cross� as his special of the morning.

reports, our Chairman of Deacons, Wallace Alford directed business meeting.

Brother Corey continued the study of Restoration from Ezra 8. He explained the journey of restoration – first we must have courage, second we take action, third is teamwork, fourth is direction, or to be guided by God, and fifth is delegation, or dishing out responsibility.

Sunday morning Amy Powell sang with her outstanding talent, “It is well with my soul.�

Brother Corey brought the message, “How do I pray for my church?� fromColossians 1:9-14. We learned prayer activates God’s power. He tailors His plan for our lives. To know God’s will, we must first know his word.

Sunday evening, Brother Corey preached on “Steps to answered prayer� from Ezekiel 1:4-9. He spoke on PUSH - Pray Until Something Happens.

Revival starts next Sunday, August 28 through 31.

Brother Lammie Lammersfeld will be preaching; our own Brother Terry Owens will direct our music. Join us. GA’s are collecting school supplies as Christmas in August for missionaries.

Kenton News by Cindy Lamar Celebrating nine years!!!!

Last Sunday was a very special day for a special young lady as Molly Lamar, daughter of Luke and Cynthia Lamar celebrated her 9th birthday at her home.

Molly shared her big day with many family and friends including grandparents, greatgrandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, classmates, and her younger sister, Addy.

Everyone enjoyed grilled hamburgers and hotdogs, chips, soda and ice-cream and cake. After enjoying the delicious meal, to the birthday girl’s delight, guests presented her with an array of nice gifts and a good sum of cash.

Although Molly escaped the traditional birthday spankings with “one to grow on,” a few guests managed to administer a few gentle “love taps.”

The streets of both Trenton and Union City were lined on Wednesday and Thursday last week respectively, with thousands of well-wishers gathered to show their love and support for their National

Guard Units as they were leaving for Fort Bliss, Texas for specialized training.

Following their training, the 349 soldiers will soon be deployed to Kuwait as part of Operation Enduring Freedom.

Our thoughts and prayers are with them and their families.

Each year at this time, children and adults alike look forward to attending the County Fair.

Some for the rides, some for the exhibits, and others for the food or sideshows. In spite of the heat and economy, a good crowd attended the Obion County Fair last week, many of which were from our home town. Listening to some children who attended the fair it was clear, though the times have changed, the fun has not.

Young eyes twinkled while the child described what great fun they had going up and down and around on the rides, some of which their parents rode as a child. Other new rides were just as exciting, be it a thrill ride or a more sedate one.

Food for Thought: They

www.oldestfair.org

lined the streets to show support, their hearts filled with pride.

They wouldn’t miss this precious chance, their love they could not hide. They had to know they were not alone, they had great support back home. While they are gone waging freedom’s fight, they had their help through prayer to God! Prayer List: PeeWee Wyrick, Vickie Robinson, Jimmy Simmons, Amanda Davis, Jackie Zaricor, David Stephenson, Sally Copeland, Virginia and Elmer Williams, Jesse and Elaine Davidson, Bobby and Carol Primrose, Eurby Sanders, Freda Lamar, Paul Lee Williams, Regina Miller, Racine Hodges, Henry and Cathy Herane, Lil and W.T.

Obituaries LORETTA MEALER

Dyer - Graveside services for Loretta Mealer, 68, were conducted on August 23, 2011 at Mount Olive Cemetery of Dyer.

Miss Mealer passed away from this life on August 21, 2011, at Jackson Madison County General Hospital. Loretta was born September 24, 1942, in Camden, the daughter of the late Coleman and Florence Lee Hubbs Porter.

Miss Mealer is survived by one brother, Porter Mealer and five sisters, Bessie Lee Gathings, Minnie Pearl Powell, Jewell Richardson, Nancy Langley, and Betty Webb.

Karnes and Son Funeral Home was honored to serve the family of Loretta Mae Mealer.

KATHLEEN NORRIS KEEL

Dyer - Funeral services for Kathleen Norris Keel, 84, were conducted August 21, 2011, at the chapel of Karnes and Son Funeral Home with Bro. Scott Jewell officiating.

Interment followed in Oakwood Cemetery of Dyer.

Mrs. Keel joined her husband, Lois Keel in eternity on Friday, August 19, 2011, at 10:30 p.m. at the Dyer Nursing Home.

Norris was born in 1926 to Dewey and Nora Coleman. She retired from Brown Shoe Company and continued working at Dyer Drugs. She was a lifelong member at Beech Grove Baptist Church as a Sunday School teacher for many years.

Norris’ famous and delicious homemade bread warmed hearts of many friends. She enjoyed hours of entertaining friends and playing Rook for so many years.

She will be deeply missed by her sister, Christine Coleman McCurdy; her brother-in-law, Raymond McCurdy; and many close friends. Nieces and nephews benefited from her goodwill, loving care and attention; including George and Janie Coleman, Carolyn Coleman Shackleford, Billy and Judy Barron, Tim and Lee Barron, Bob and Suzanne McCurdy, and Mike and Kay McCurdy Ryan.

She is also survived by 11 great-nieces and nephews; five great-great nieces and nephews. In addition to her husband and parents, Mrs. Keel is preceded in death by her brother, Harry Coleman; and her sister, Louise Coleman Barron.

Karnes and Son Funeral Home was honored to serve the family of Mrs. Norris Keel. Memorials to Beech Grove Baptist Church are appreciated.

North Union Praise the Lord for His faithfulness! We have all seen people we love become Christians and then experience the rite of baptism.

Well, Sunday was an especially joyous day for the Coopers as our sister in law, Barb, was baptized and Bro. Don’s brother Ron, joined Beulah Land Cowboy Church in Martin. There is a real peace of mind that comes with knowing that your entire family is “under the blood.”

Back at North Union Bro. Chris filled the pulpit with a message about “What Christ in us looks like to others.” Do we show forth a joyous attitude and a good crop of Fruit? Do we show in our lives that we serve a Great God and do our words match our actions? Good questions. Hope you have the right answers!

Sarah Allen shared from the story of Jabez with the children. The point was made that we need the right kind of picture of God so we can tell others about Him. God is good, patient and kind. I say “amen” to that.

Lindsey and Lauren Whitley sang “Never Alone” for our music special.

By Connie Cooper Next week is our Youth Sunday and I’m sure we’ll be hearing more from them, as well as from others. Robert Joyce will be bringing the morning message. Others of our youth will be ministering in drama at the Union Methodist Church in Dyer that evening.

Bro. Don’s evening message included a daring feat

by Libby Goad as she scaled a huge ladder to retrieve the prize at the very top. She faltered only momentarily, but continued upward as her daddy got behind her and supported her. The message from Proverbs showed us that “Wisdom comes with Trusting God.” God loves us and is our greatest supporter when we are seeking to do His will.

Birthdays this week are Austin Baird, Margo Norman, Charles Eddings, John Davidson and Jimmy Goad. Shirley Sims has been hospitalized in Jackson so we want to remember to pray for her.

We have a very busy schedule for the next few weeks, including a wedding shower for Michelle Bell and Dylan Joyce on Sunday. I hope you have a great week and I’ll see you on Sunday.

RELIGION The Grapevine What a wonderful week we had weather-wide last week. God did not consult me about the temperature, but it certainly pleased me.

We thank god for blessing the sick and especially the ones who were hospitalized.

Bro. William Edmonds, Sis. Geraldine Sowell, John Mitchell and Jerry Warren were dismissed from Madison County General Hospital last week.

We had a very spiritual service at St. Paul Sunday morning. Rev. Willie Pounds delivered a wonderful message. His topic “Do you have the wisdom of a blind man?” was found in Mark 10:46 & 47. The Mass Choir provided the music.

The special selection was “All I Need is Jesus” led

by Ronald Banks. We were blessed with one little girl, Alyssa Pitts, who accepted Jesus as her personal Savior. She will be baptized Sunday morning. The Angels rejoiced in Heaven and so did we at St. Paul.

We were so glad that Josie Johnson and John Mitchell were able to be in church service Sunday morning. John is already walking much better after his knee surgery.

Everyone is invited to attend “William Edmonds Day” and the Celebration of County Line Lodge #68 FAM for their 100th year of existence. It will be held at the Kenton Youth Center Saturday August 27, 2011, at 3:00 p.m. Rev. Michelle Skinner will be the speaker of the hour.

St. Paul will be observing our Annual Choir Day Sunday, August 28, 2011 at

By Sarah Skinner 3 p.m. Everyone is invited.

We are expecting several choirs to be in attendance.

Stella Johnson and Alicia Moore of Milwaukee spent last week in Kenton with my family and I and with our brother Charles and Laura Warren in Trezevant last week. They arrived Saturday the 13th and home Saturday the 20th. They came primarily to see and spend some time with our brother Jerry Warren who has been very ill. He is feeling better.

Michelle Skinner detoured from the East Coast last week and traveled to the West Coast. She was in Seattle, Washington last week and will be in San Diego this week. She reported the weather was so much cooler in Washington that she had to wear a coat.

The children are back in school. The Gibson County High School Band is cranking up for another seasons. We just pray to God that they all stay healthy and do well and I know we will have another wonderful season.

Mary Warren, Alma Williamson, Pat Wade, and her granddaughter visited Taylor Ray Conner at UT Martin Sunday afternoon.

Mary reported that Taylor is slowly adjusting to college life.

Harriette Alford, Betty Belmont and I attended the preview show and supper sponsored by the GCHS Band Thursday night.

Harriette really enjoyed it.

She is very proud of Lil Sarah.

God bless and have a good week.

Dyer Church of Christ Morning worship services had an attendance of 109 and 79 in Sunday school.

Our message for the morning service came from the book of Matthew 5:1012, “Great is your reward.

Blessed are you, rejoice and be exceedingly glad. You are blessed if people persecute you for righteousness sake.

Have hope in the knowledge that the prophets before you were also persecuted but great will be your reward in heaven.”

Our message for the evening service came from the book of 1John 3:18, “God is greater. A new testament Christian should have assurance, confidence and hope. Love the brethren and love not the world. Love of the father makes you his child. Love in deed and in truth.”

Remember the following in prayer – Amy Grady, Mac Wyatt, Jerry Martin, and all of our shut-ins and ones in

nursing homes.

Praise God, Drue Alford was baptized into Jesus last week and we are so glad to have Drue as part of our church family.

Announcements - Mark your calendars for the next youth devotional Sunday evening August 28th after services at James and Sheila Gilliland’s home.

Next Sunday August 28th will be activity Sunday.

Please contact John Taylor if you will be able to make or deliver bread for the newcomers in the community.

Rutherford 1st Baptist By Katheryn Blankenship The farmers are starting to gather corn, the kids are back in school, and this is the last week of August. Where has the year gone?

Before we know it, we will be waking up to see frost sparkling like diamonds on the grass… We had a good crowd in church and a very special service.

A few weeks ago, Tessami Moore was on a youth trip.

One night she realized she was not saved. She told about the experience one Sunday night when the youth were in charge of the evening service.

She was baptized Sunday morning.

Bro. Jason’s message was “Rethink Sunday School.” We are getting ready for a new church year starting Sunday, with friend day and a lunch after the morning service.

If you do not have a home church, come out and join us.

Sunday evening, Bro. Jason talked about “Two Witnesses” from Revelation 11:1-14. It is so interesting to go through this book of the Bible chapter by chapter and try to understand its meaning.

The bus will leave at 4:30 p.m. Saturday for Jackson to see the Jackson Generals baseball game.

Those having birthdays this week are Kay Hamm, Julie Bogardus, and Logan Rahm.

We extend sympathy to Mike Hensley in the death of his brother who was killed in a motorcycle accident last week.

Mrs. Mary Belle Hollis is in the hospital at Trenton.

Until next week – God Bless.

Sunday School for Shut-Ins Whether you’re 11 or 111, this is for you. Whether you’ve teen reading God’s Word for a long time or just starting today, this is for you.

When you’re ready, please read I John 3:18-20. Since God is Love his love will manifest in His children (I John 3:10). The seed of love is unmistakable (I John 3:9).

Where the Holy Spirit of God dwells, there is love; love will remain and abide there.

The seed of righteousness remains in the child of God (I John 3:9). The price that Jesus paid at the cross was the final witness.

“Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you.”

We know that we have passed from death to life because we love the brethren.

He who does not love his brother abides in death? I John 3:13-14 NKJV. He who doesn’t love his brother who is he talking about? The one he wrote about in verse 13: those in the world who hate the follower of Christ Jesus.

We’ve heard it said that there’s a thin line between love and hate. We don’t see that in Scripture. We don’t see a grey area in the

By Mary King

Word of God. If they hate the follower of Christ they aren’t of Him. If they hate the Christian they don’t abide in the love of God. The Apostle John is still explaining how to recognize the false teachers. He also begins to explain how we can know that we ourselves are truly abiding in the love of God. We have passed from death into life and we know it (I John 3:14). This speaks of confidence: We have assurance even though those on the opposing side may not like us at all. They won’t understand us. They’ll talk about us. They may even act out their hatred for us.

Abel’s deeds were righteous.

“Not as Cain who was the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother’s righteous” I John 3:12 NKJV. Cain could only murder Abel on earth. Abel lives forever in heaven with our Savior Christ Jesus.

Abraham came long after Abel but they know each other in heaven. Moses came a long time after both of them but they all know each other in heaven.

Cards of Thanks Our sincere thanks for all the prayers, flowers, food, visits, cards and love shown to our family during the loss of our mother. A special thanks to Brother Mark Kirkpatrick, Brother James Roberts and Brother Jerry Crouse for the wonderful service honoring our mother. A special thank you to Karnes and Son Funeral Home for their love and compassion shown to our family at our time of loss.

Lowrance Chapel By Jerry Bell We bid you a good day from Lowrance Chapel.

What a blessed privilege we had to assemble together and worship our great and glorious God. Our lesson began with a reading of Acts 1:1-14. I hope that you will get your Bibles and read this passage of scripture.

The early church that we read about in the book of Acts was mighty in its infancy.

The plague of apathy, the disease of inertness and indifference and unconcern, was not known among this church. They were zealous, all fired up to carry out the Lord’s will. The freshness of the resurrection was reflected in every aspect of their lives.

What has happened to us today! Aren’t we in love with the same Lord? Shouldn’t we bear the same family likeness as the early church? What made them vigorous and convincing in their witness can make us vigorous and alive today! What made them different than the world? We will explore some of these things today.

They were in fellowship with the risen Lord. The resurrected Lord was with them. Physically for 40 days.

He has been in the Holy Spirit since then. The same empowering Spirit of Christ that they had is ours today!

He is here for anyone who will seek Him. He is the Spirit of Christ here to give us the same vigorous testimony – the same dynamic faith as the disciples. The power comes when you have fellowship with Christ Jesus and you keep company with Him. But there are problems today.

How can we have fellowship with the Lord unless we know Him? The sad truth is that a lot of “professed� Christians do not know the Lord! Listen, if you are not saved by the TONY’S CLEANING SERVICE CARPET & UPHOLSTERY TILE & GROUT CLEANED & SEALED PRESSURE WASHING JANITORIAL SERVICE

precious blood of Christ, you cannot possibly have a living relationship with the Lord!

You can only pretend to know Him. They were waiting for Christ as he commanded them to wait (vs4) and they waited.

They waited for power from on high. Obedience is a bad word and unpopular word today. If we succeed in our work for the Lord we need to obey Him. The disciples obeyed the Lord and waited for the Spirit. Today, the same rules apply. We need to be in the Spirit and let the supernatural power of God germinate the seeds of the gospel which we plant.

They were united in the risen spirit of the Lord. We each call ourselves Brother and Sister because we have our bond in love rooted in the risen Lord’s love for us.

The early church was in one accord. (Acts 2:1; 2:46; 4:24) They were all working for the same thing. The evidence of this accord was their prayer life. They were a praying church, all praying for the same thing. The church that is unified is first in one accord in prayer and supplication.

They believed the word of God. When Simon Peter stood to preach he did not expound his own ideas, he opened God’s Word and taught the scripture. A church that is alive will be one that preaches God’s Word, not Man’s word! Listen to me good,! When you trim God’s Word to suit the itching ears of the backslidden, you are not preaching the Word. You are serving up a false doctrine. The gospel must be proclaimed to the entire world.

The early church had

power because they had a living, daily relationship with the risen Lord. They were obedient to Him because they knew He was the true and living God. They knew that without Him they would perish. Do you know Jesus today? Obey His commands and become a true follower of God.

Sports & Education GC Pioneers start out a promising season

BY GCHS HEAD COACH LEE ATKINS The Gibson County Pioneers traveled to Halls High School in west TN to take on the Tigers in the first game of the 2011 campaign. The Pioneers had hoped to topple the Tigers in what would have been the first school victory in over two years. GCHS defeated Jackson-Central Merry in a 10-0 shutout in the 2011 SportsPlus Jamboree and was expected to provide a competitive performance against the Tigers on Friday night. Some had discounted the Jamboree victory over JCM; however, JCM defeated Haywood County in a 32-0 shutout of the team from Brownsville.

Nevertheless, victory slipped through the hands of the Pioneers again in an overtime loss 12-6.

The Pioneers took the opening drive and dominated the entire first quarter of play on a 69 yard drive that ended on the three yard line with a missed field goal just left of the uprights. If all things had remained constant, that missed opportunity could have been the victory for the Pioneers.

The humidity and temperature of the night took its toll on both teams. at one point in the game there were no less than six players from both sides cramping up on the sideline or gridiron. The 2nd quarter belonged to the Halls Tigers as they passed and rushed their way to pay dirt with a 30-plus yard dump pass. The PAT

was no good so both teams went to the locker room to recover from the heat and to prepare for the second half.

The Pioneers dominated the second half of play rushing 15 times for 59 yards to reach the end zone.

Markee Brown (JR) scored on a 2 yard run behind the left side of the offensive line led by JR fullbacks Trey Wiese and Dustin Murdock. The kicker was cramped up on the sideline and two other members of the PAT squad were injured so the coaching staff kept

the offense on the field and attempted to throw the ball for the two-point conversion. The pass from QB Zac Walton to Markee Brown was incomplete and the game was tied at 6-6.

The 4th quarter became a defensive battle with both sides struggling to move the ball into scoring position.

Defensive standouts Cameron Johnson, Marcous Bailey and Dustin Murdock all had big stops and tackles for loss to prevent the Tigers from scoring. The game was

MOVING BEHIND THE OFFENSIVE LINE - Markee Brown rushes behind the GCHS offensive line in

lost in overtime after the Pioneers fumbled the ball on the five yard line and the Tiger’s QB scored on their first play from scrimmage.

It was a long night for the Pioneers who came very close to victory. Eight players played iron-man football all night with little chance to come off the field to rest or hydrate. It is a reality the Dyer team knows very well and could be a reflection of the reduced numbers enrolled at GCHS as South Gibson County High School begins

competition in varsity football this season. On a side note, it was the first contest between father and son as head Coach Lee Atkins’ son and former offensive coordinator, Jon Atkins, faced off across the field of competition.

Jon is the new strength and conditioning coach and defensive back coach at Halls High School.

School who is coming off a 12-2 victory over MartinWestview. Game time is 7:30 on Friday night in Dyer, TN. STATS are available online at MAXPREPS. COM (A CBS affiliated website).

The Offensive stats were as follows: Zac Walton rushed 5 times for 33 yards averaging 6.6 yards per carry. He threw the ball three times completing one pass to Cody Jones. Zac Cross rushed 7 times for 22 yards, Javon Sowell rushed 3 times for 3 yards. Junior FB and Team Captain Trey Wiese rushed for 38 yards on ten carries averaging 3.8 yards per carry. Junior Markee Bown led the Pioneers in rushing with 67 yards on 20 carries and one touchdown.

The team totals are as follows: rushing 45-163 yards-average 3.62 yards per carry, passing 1-3-1-22 yards, the totals: 46 plays on offense and 185 total yards.

Team leaders on Defense included: Junior OLB Drew Scobey with 8 total tackles and assists, Senior Captain Clayton Yarbro with 5 tackles and assists, Senior DT Cameron Johnson had 5 tackles including a sack, Dustin Murdock also had four tackles, a sack and a tackle for a loss, Marcous Bailey had four tackles and several other Pioneers had one or more tackles or assists in the contest.

Senior offensive lineman, Andrew Hunt, is out with an injury and expected to return in the coming weeks.
