Devotion - We Are Waiting Again
By Dave LinnOur children had hard time waiting on Christmas Eve They knew presents were coming, and they couldn’t wait to see them No one likes to wait So don’t get in the check-out line behind me There will be two customers in front of me One will need price checks on two or three items The other will check out and then sort through a wallet for six coupons to cash in By that time I’ll remember what I forgot to get, and pull back out of the line But the Israelites had waited four hundred years The temple of Solomon had been destroyed and then rebuilt God had promised that the Messiah would come to the second temple But for four centuries He had not come Not even a prophet had appeared on the scene Had God forgotten His promises of coming? Finally a Savior was announced to Mary and Joseph He would come as the sinless One to remove our guilt Then He left earth and promised to come again It s been almost two thousand years since He promised that What a long wait! But He has a reason for what seems like slowness Peter writes to us, “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9 New International Version) I’m a person who prays for patience And I want it right now!” But God was patient with me when my life reflected the fact that I did not believe in Him In fact, He has been patient with all of us Jesus patiently taught Judas for three years, even though He knew Judas was stealing from the disciples’ treasury Jesus wanted to give Judas eternal treasures Instead, Judas accepted an earthly treasure to betray Jesus
We have just been to the manger We see the lengths to which God’s love for sinners led Him Now that same God calls us to be patient and loving with those about us We are called to forgive as God has forgiven us That is Christian patience
A Year in the Bible
By Pastor Wayne Bernau, Immanuel LutheranAccording to a research poll conducted by the Barna Group, approximately 20% of Americans claim to have read through the Bible While most denominations claim to be based on the teachings of the Bible, to me it is surprising that not more of us actually open the Bible regularly and let the Lord speak directly to us through His holy Word
During the next year of 2023 at Immanuel, we are challenging all of our members to read through the New Testament Did you know that the New Testament (Matthew through Revelation) contains a total of 260 chapters? 260 is 52 [weeks] times 5 [chapters] Therefore, if we read 5 chapters each week, we will have read through the most important parts of the Bible in one year In our confirmation studies, we read through portions of the Old Testament one year and then through the entire New Testament the following year a chapter each day This has enabled us to have a solid foundation of faith in the living and abiding Word of God!
While reading recently in the book of Acts, we came across Acts 17:11 Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true I appreciate the concept behind this passage Paul was a great teacher of the Christian faith, and labored hard to spread its message near and far Some listened and believed and others scoffed But the Bereans listened attentively, and then checked the Scriptures! Rather than just trusting Paul, they looked into the infallible Word of the living God People, including teachers and pastors like me, can easily lead others astray But God s Word is truth and never deceives us Back to the Scriptures!
Listen to some of the many benefits that come from Bible reading and study Paul wrote Timothy: And how from childhood you have known the sacred Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work (II Timothy 3:15-17)

Family Living Focus
Older adults and their family caregivers can take the following actions to stay warm economically and safely this winter:
on
passing spark an increased thirst for God’s love and may we walk in his sacred footprints recalling the abundant teachings he has left etched in the history of the Church as a great gift
Find out about financial energy assistance programs: Many states counties and cities provide programs that assist older adults with winter heating costs Your local Area Agency on Aging is a reliable source of information about available community programs and eligibility requirements Ask about the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, the Weatherization Assistance Program, and other energy assistance Be aware of help available through utility companies: Check with your gas, water, and electricity suppliers to see if they offer a monthly budget plan to help spread out those high energy costs this winter over an entire year Often they maintain special heating assistance funds as well as no cut off guidelines to avoid termination of service for elderly disabled and ill customers who have difficulty paying their bill Utility companies also are a major source for energy conservation information They might be able to refer you to an expert to inspect your home for ways to make it more energy efficient or provide a list of contractors to tune up your furnace so that it is working at peak efficiency
Look for ways to cut down on winter energy use: Easy steps to take include using storm windows or inexpensive stretch window film to keep out drafts, using a programmable thermostat to lower temperature automatically when you are away from home or asleep changing furnace filters at least every three months to keep the warm air flowing and weather stripping or insulating the attic hatch or door to prevent warm air from leaking out of the house Although a log fire in your fireplace is nice, it does not heat your home because heated air drafts up the chimney When not using your fireplace, close the damper Ensure your health and safety: In addition to addressing the need to stay warm during winter, consider safety as well Make sure that smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed and working properly; water pipes are insulated to avoid freezing and bursting; electrical cords on space heaters are not damaged and do not pose a tripping hazard; batteries and batterypowered flashlights are available; and a fire extinguisher is ready to use Have a back-up plan: Before you need them, consider alternative arrangements should extreme weather conditions require emergency action These might include having another place to stay temporarily, asking someone to check on you daily especially if you live alone, making sure that your medicine and medical needs are met, and sharing contact information with everyone who would need it Follow these home energy tips to ensure that you or an older family member will be warm and safe during the cold winter months
Focus on Ag Column: Preparing Updated Financial Information For Your Ag Lender
By Kent Thiesse Farm Management Analyst and Sr Vice President, MinnStar Bank, Lake Crystal, MNAs we head into 2023, many farm operations are coming off a fairly good profit year in 2022; however, some producers had much more modest profit levels last year In all cases, all farm operators are facing much higher crop and livestock input expenses in 2023, as compared to 2020 or 2021 expense levels During these changing farm financial times, it is good to plan ahead before meeting with an ag lender for renewal of a farm operating line of credit or for an annual review of the farm financial portfolio
Following are some tips for farm operators to be more proactive, as they are preparing for an annual meeting with their ag lender
Prepare an up-to-date 2022 year-end farm balance sheet (as of 12-31-22 or 1-01-23)
Preparation of an accurate and up-to-date year-end balance sheet is critical to the loan renewal process for any farm operation Updating the previous year’s balance sheet with current year-end numbers can help expediate the process If the farm operation is a sole proprietorship, most ag lenders will also want personal asset and liability data included If it is a partnership or family corporation, most ag lenders will also require personal balance sheets from all partners A good year-end balance sheet will include:
List of accounts receivable as of 12-31-22, which includes whom the money is due from, the dollar amount, and the date it will be received This includes deferred payments for grain sold in 2022
List of accounts payable as of 12-31-21, listing who the money is owed to, the dollar amount, and when payment will be due List of 2023 prepaid expenses for both crops and livestock as of 12-31-22 which details the input amount of the input and the amount that was prepaid This for items where payment has occurred
Grain and livestock inventory list as of 12-31-22 The grain inventory should include total bushels of each crop, bushels that are forward priced (date and price for each sale), and any sales plans for the remaining bushels Livestock inventory should include the number, weight, and any sales information on market or feeder livestock An updated list and estimated value of breeding livestock should be included as an intermediate asset rather than a current asset CCC loans on 2022 grain that were taken prior to 1-01-23, listing the bushel amount, CCC loan rate, CCC interest rate, CCC loan maturity date, and sales plans for the CCC grain
Review the list of farm machinery and equipment, buildings and facilities, and other capital assets, removing any assets that have been sold or removed, and adding any assets that were purchased or acquired during 2022 Farm machinery is usually listed as an intermediate asset
Add any land or other long-term assets that were added in 2022 and adjust asset values as necessary (may want to review this with an ag lender)
List of all other loans and creditors as of 12-31-22, listing the principal balance, interest rate, payment amount, and payment dates Be sure to include short-term creditors for crop inputs, loans with family members, and CCC loans through FSA offices
Prepare a 2022 year-end income and expense statement as of 12-31-22
The year-end income statement from the previous year should be based on actual sales of grain and livestock during 2022, which will likely include both some 2021 inventory that existed at the beginning of the year, as well as any 2022 grain or livestock that was sold during the year The 2022 expenses would include any accounts payable from the beginning of the year balance sheet that were paid in 2022 and any 2023 prepaid expenses that were paid in 2022, in addition to the other 2022 crop and livestock expenses A preliminary 2022 federal tax return is a good resource to prepare an income statement
Prepare a budget-to-actual summary for the previous year (as of 12-31-22)
Once the 2022 income and expense statement has been finalized, and accrual adjustments are made based on the year-end balance sheet, it always good to review the actual year-end financial analysis compared to the budgeted cash flow analysis that was prepared at the beginning of the year Pay attention to the big differences that exist in crop and livestock income and the various expense items as well as determine explanations for those differences Analyze for any potential adjustments that are needed for 2023
Prepare a preliminary 2023 budget and cash flow analysis
Preparing an accurate and complete budget and cash flow analysis for 2023 is a very important part of the loan renewal process A high-quality cash flow analysis will likely include:
A grain and livestock marketing plan that includes a list of the amount sold the contracted price and the date to be delivered as well as plans for remaining unpriced grain and livestock inventories
Planned crop and livestock production for the year, including acres of various crops, anticipated production levels, and any current or planned sales of the 2023 production A list of planned crop and livestock inputs for 2023, the contracted or planned price of the inputs, and when the expense will be incurred
A detailed list of rented farm land for 2023 which includes the name of the farm owner acres rented amount of rent (including flexible lease details) and dates when rent payments are due
Include income received for accounts receivable on the year-end balance sheet and account for the expenses of any accounts payable at the beginning of the year
Provide details of planned 2023 crop insurance coverage, such as updated APH yields, percentage coverage, enterprise versus optional units, ad the addition of hail or wind insurance (Your ag lender may be a good resource for these decisions )
Provide a copy of FSA farm program information listing the crop base acres and FSA program yield for each farm unit Discuss the 2023 farm program choice with your ag lender Include any planned changes or adjustments in the farming operation for 2023 in the cash flow analysis, including farm machinery purchases or sales, adding or selling land or other assets, and any other changes to the farm business, as well as any changes in personal assets or liabilities
It is best to include all partners and family members that are part of the farm operation in the renewal process with an ag lender, so that all key players are “on the same page” with financial decisions affecting the farm business It is very important to be trustworthy and honest in preparing and sharing financial information with an ag lender to help assure confidence in the accuracy of the financial data View an ag lender as an informal partner in a farm business, as a good ag lender can be a valuable resource in making management decisions Farm operators should expect their ag lenders to be well prepared, trustworthy and honest in financial dealings It is important to remember that most local ag lenders also face a lot of pressure in the process of renewing farm operating loans They need to do their “due-diligence”

Ask-A-Trooper
Question: Can a truck with collector plates on it be used in a snow plow business? Is it legal to use collector plates on a vehicle driven on a daily basis?
Answer: Driving a vehicle for general transportation with collector plates on is illegal It is also illegal to use collector plates for business purposes
There are several different requirements for collector” license plates
The vehicle needs to be at least 20-years-old or older
The owner shall also prove that they also have one or more vehicles with regular license plates
The vehicle is owned and operated solely as a collector's item, and not for general transportation purposes
What are general transportation purposes? To law enforcement it means the vehicle can be driven to show it but you cannot use it to go to work, school, shopping, and other everyday activities It is going to be a judgment call on the part of the officer but the intent of the law is to only use it for fairs shows, etc , and not as another vehicle for your family

Review Your Broadband Map to Improve Borderto-Border Access
Executive Director
Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development s Office of Broadband Development
Recently, Governor Tim Walz announced that internet providers will receive nearly $100 million in funding to expand broadband coverage to more Minnesotans This largest-ever grant round is estimated to extend new high-speed internet connections to more than 33 000 Minnesota homes and businesses in 48 counties
At the Department of Employment and Economic Development’s Office of Broadband Development, we re working hard to get broadband to more Minnesotans who need it Now we need your help to make that a reality
As part of the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill, $65 billion in funding is available to states for broadband We re excited to implement the bill s programs but much of our funding relies on a new mapping project from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to show where broadband is and is not available
The FCC is accepting challenges to their new map right now, and we encourage all Minnesotans to review the map to see if the broadband speeds shown to be available at their address are correct
Local review of the broadband maps is important as residents know best if the mapping information is accurate Minnesotans can go to broadbandmap fcc gov to review their map and provide feedback
To review the map, type in your address Your home should appear on the map along with a list of services that providers claim to have available for CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

This year, between 240,000 and 291,000 households in Minnesota lacked access to high-speed broadband So much of what we do happens online, which is why we want to ensure all Minnesotans have access to highspeed internet All Minnesotans deserve equal access to high-speed broadband If you have any questions, please reach out to the Office of Broadband at 651-259-7610 or deed broadband@state mn us

Governor Walz Provides Flexibility for Fuel Transportation Following Severe Weather
[ST PAUL, MN] – Following severe winter storms and extreme cold, Governor Tim Walz today signed an executive order providing emergency relief from regulations for motor carriers and drivers transporting fuel in Minnesota Executive Order 22-24 helps address the high demand for propane with the onset of winter and recent powerful storms in Minnesota
Households across the state depend on propane to keep them warm during the winter months,” said Governor Walz “It is important that we keep propane delivery reliable and safe for all Minnesotans I’m grateful to fuel carriers and drivers working to keep families across the state warm this winter ”
Approximately ten percent of
Minnesota households, or over 200,000 homes, use propane as their primary heating fuel The need for propane is even more common in rural areas where many households do not have access to natural gas Propane and heating fuels are essential supplies necessary to protect the public health and safety of families agricultural operators and others in the region Recent weather events and road closures due to whiteout conditions have severely impeded travel including the transportation of propane These weather-related road closures have led to a backlog of propane deliveries which is compounded by increased energy consumption due to sub-zero temperatures Reliable access to propane is critical to the safety of Minnesotans in the weeks and months ahead

A New Year brings a new recycling focus
Hello Everyone, I hope this Holiday Season finds you healthy and happy with Family and Friends As we look back at 2022 most of us have lots to be thankful for So with that said I would like to mention some key players that make our local disposal and recycling programs convenient and affordable year round First off, I would like to thank our residents and our readers this past year I have received more calls from our residents than when everyone was at home for six months due to covid isolation I can hear the recycling passion in your voices and we are lucky to have so many residents wanting to do the right thing when it comes to disposal or recycling Believe it or not recycling and proper disposal of products can be challenging these days as we are constantly exposed to new products that come in new containers having new use and disposal guidelines so we really have to have our game on if we want to do recycling right or dispose correctly! Next I would like to thank my Coworkers, Commissioners, Sheriff’s Office and Highway Staff – as they sayTeamwork makes the Dream work and dealing with solid waste, hazardous waste and recycling issues is a team effort to keep our growing communities clean, healthy and safe Many thanks to our neighboring Counties and partners – Blue Earth, Scott and McLeod as they also play a big part in addressing the disposal & recycling needs of our residents as we have agreements to use their facilities year round Hats off to our Solid Waste Haulers, who get up very early and deal with smelly garbage and recycling on a daily basis in all kinds of weather We also appreciate our local pharmacies who work with us on our sharps collection program Our City Staff and Township Officers also play a key role working together with us on policies, services and programs that make our communities more environmentally sustainable A new year brings a new focus In 2023, we will look at some of the com-

mon products we buy and use every day that can be hazardous (such as chemicals like sodium hypochloritebleach) Or can be a danger to us such as batteries or pose a danger to both us and our environment such as PFAS or Per & Polyfluoroalky substances otherwise known as “forever chemicals” and its relationship to something as harmless as composting For most of us, most of the time we can handle and use these items on a daily basis and have no problems but the chemicals we buy are becoming more concentrated which can be dangerous to our skin if exposed or to our lungs if inhaled It can be a similar situation with some of our battery packs from ebikes, cell phones, flashlights or even battery-operated socks the batteries are getting smaller but contain more power or more danger Another fun hot topic to discuss is the single use plastic grocery bag vs a reusable bag Some of you may have heard about Walmart banning the single use plastic bag in some areas and opting for reusable bags for customers who get home deliveries These customers are now complaining that they are drowning in reusable bags every month The reusable grocery bag can be a problem if you forget it at home or in the car and then you are back to using single use plastic bag – so the debate rages on I am looking forward to 2023 as we have lots to discuss!
