Recent data shows that one in four (26%) high school students reported ever using e-cigarettes, and thirteen percent report current e-cigarette use.” Consequently Ecigarette use can lead to lower academic performance and harm adolescent brain development.

The Georgia Department of Education’s (GADOE) Office of Whole Child Supports, in conjunction with the DPH and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) considers Vaping among middle and high school students a developing and growing crisis that requires the education and awareness Georgia LEA district and school-level administrators as to the impact, dangers and preventative resources.

The Office of Whole Child Supports will launch an awareness campaign by hosting a live webinar on the Vaping Crisis in Georgia Schools. The target audience is district and school level administrators. LEA’s are critical to the dissemination of information to parents and community stakeholders.

32 YEARS OF LIGHT, LOVE, AND LEADERSHIP.

Pastor Gail

T OLBER T S MIT H

Mom, from the time I was really young, I realized I had someone...you, who always cared, who always protected me, who was always there for me no matter what.

You taught me right from wrong, and pushed me to do the right thing, even when it was hard to do. You took care of me when I was sick, and your love helped make me well.

You had rules, and I learned that when I obeyed them, my life was simpler, better, richer.

You were and are the guiding light of my life. My heart is filled with love for you, my teacher, my friend, my mother.

Karl and Joanna Fuchs

Dear

Universal Light Christian Center

My Beloved Brothers & Sisters:

It is with great honor and humble gratitude that I greet you in the name of our Lord and Savior. It has been 32 years serving this congregation and I am thankful for all that God has done for me, my family, the community and for you throughout my time here. Although I acknowledge all the privileges and benefits afforded me since birth, my soul is boasting in the goodness and faithfulness of God.

I have been thinking of a way to describe what it is like to pastor one congregation for several decades and I believe it finally clicked. It is like being in a marriage (only one) that has endured the tests of time—the romance, the ebb and flow, the challenges, and the victories. Those who have endured years of changing currents in marriage understand the strength that comes from weathering storms; the stability that comes from being anchored in commitment; the comfort that comes from knowing you are not alone; the character and unfailing love that grows out of overcoming obstacles and celebrating victories together. That is we have shared at ULCC. It’s been 32 years of marriage and thank God we are still together!

I would like to express my deepest appreciation for all that you have invested in me and experienced with me over the years. Please know that it is not in vain. As Apostle Paul wrote to the church at Philippi: “So it is right that I should feel as I do about all of you, for you have a special place in my heart. You share with me the special favor of God…”

Looking forward to continuing our bonds of love and marriage in the years to come. I love you and I thank God for each of you!!!

A CELEBRATION OF LIFE

Remembering AJ & EVA

SEPTEMBER 22, 2017MARCH 14, 2021

BabyEva

We never got to hold you, Or kiss your little head, Or watch you sleeping soundly

All snuggled in your bed.

We can't count your tiny fingers Or your even smaller toes. We won't see your smile

Or your cute little button nose.

We know you are in heaven, Where there is no pain or tears. You'll never get hurt or sick. In heaven there are no fears.

And though we’re sad You never made it here

We rest assured you are safe with mommy, daddy, and AJ. And in heaven we will Meet you someday. We love you Baby Eva

Adapted from April Westlake by Tina Thames (Thamesink)

Anthony “AJ” Jaroy Stuckey, Jr. was born on September 22, 2017 in Dublin, GA to Dr. Jaroy and Elysea. AJ attended Pine Forest United Methodist Church School since 2019. He was active, loving and full of life. Any time there was music playing, you would find AJ somewhere dancing, clapping and stomping his feet. He loved the Avengers and would often dress up in their costumes. Hi favorite character was Captain America. He was excited to be the “Big Brother Avenger” for his soon to be baby sister, Eva. AJ loved his parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. You would often find him attached to his mommy’s hip. AJ also loved playing sports and spent many hours playing outside with his dad.

AJ departed this life with his loving parents and Baby Eva on Sunday, March 14, 2021 at the tender age of three.

AJ is survived by his loving grandparents, Rev. Izell (Evenda) Stephens, Mr. Bruce T. Howard, Pastor Larry (Anita) Foreman and Mr. Roy Gene Stuckey. A host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. AJ was loved by many and will truly be missed.
