Relay For Life of Monroe County features moving luminaria ceremony The American Cancer Society signature Relay For Life is a life-changing event that gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease. At Relay, teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path.

Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Because cancer never sleeps, Relays are overnight events up to 24 hours in length. Although every Relay For Life is different, there are certain traditions at all Relays, no matter where they are held.

These traditions help participants celebrate, remember, and fight back.

Celebrate – The Survivors Lap Relay starts with a Survivors Lap – a inspirational time when survivors are invited to circle the track together and help everyone celebrate the victories they’ve achieved over cancer. The Survivors Lap is an emotional example of how Relay participants are ensuring that more lives are saved each year – like those of each individual on the track. We also recognize and celebrate caregivers at Relay For Life.

These individuals give their time, love, and support to friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers who face cancer. At Relay, people understand the frustrations and joys of being a caregiver, since the effects of cancer reach far beyond just the person diagnosed.

Remember – The Luminaria Ceremony After dark, they honor people who have been touched by cancer and remember loved ones lost to the disease during the Luminaria Ceremony. Candles are lit inside bags filled with sand, each one bearing the name of a person touched by cancer, and participants often walk a lap in silence. As people take time to remember, those who have walked alongside

others battling cancer can grieve and find healing. This is a time that truly highlights the importance of defeating this disease.

Fight Back – The Fight Back Ceremony Last, there is a Fight Back Ceremony, where they make a personal commitment to save lives by taking up the fight against cancer. That personal commitment may be to do something as simple as getting a screening test, quitting smoking, or talking to elected officials about cancer. By taking action, people are personally taking steps to save lives and fight back against a disease that takes too much.

Celebrate, remember, and fight

back are themes that link all Relays events together.

It’s Monroe County’s time to relay!

The 2014 Relay For Life of Monroe County will be held Saturday, June 28 and end early Sunday, June 29, at the Paris Courthouse This year’s theme is “Create a World With More Birthdays” This annual American Cancer Society signature event begins at 6 p.m., with the Survivor Lap and ends at 1 a.m. this year rather than the usual 6 a.m., as in the past..

The goal of the participating teams is to have at least one walker on the track at all times. The exception to this rule is during the somber and emotional lumi-

Beat the Heat Cooling Centers Available

The heat has set in with May being the hottest May in history. Throughout the local area temperatures have been sultry with high humidity locally lately but as all know they can turn blistering at any time in July and August. Where can you go if you are without air conditioning or if you have an air malfunction?

Local residents, who are without air conditioning or just need to cool down, may visit local cooling centers to help keep cool during this oppressive heat.

In Paris, residents can go to the Senior Citizen’s Center for relief or they may use the library facilities during their operating hours.

“Anyone can come in and get relief from the heat,” said Senior Citizen’s Center Director Tara Sheffield. “Come beat the heat and stay cool with us - we enjoy the company.”

The Senior Center is open for heat relief from 7:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., on any day the center is open (Monday through Friday) “The Community Building is air conditioned

and people can use that if necessary,” said Paris City Superintendent Phillip Shatzer.” All they have to do is check in with the city office personnel.”

For more information about the city community building call 660-327-4334.

People in Madison can use the Madison Community Center, on Main Street, for heat relief. If a resident needs a ride to the center or for additional information they can contact the Madison City Clerk, at 660-291-5235.

In Monroe City, the Senior Center has been designated a “cooling center.” The center is open from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. - 1 p.m. on Saturday. Call 573-735-2131 for additional information.

During the summer, heat and humidity can cause serious health problems with little or no warning, and with highs in the 90’s and not much relief at night, Monroe County residents

Pets and Fireworks Don’t Mix: The loud crack and boom of fireworks can frighten animals and cause even the most obedient pets to behave out of character. A startled dog or cat may hide or try to escape the noise by digging under, chewing through or climbing over fences. To help make the holiday fun for humans and safe for pets, the Humane Society of Missouri has a few tips for this Fourth of July holiday.

To keep your pet safe - do: Give your pet a quiet, cool place to retreat inside where sounds are less intense. Dogs and cats are sensitive to loud noises as they can be painful to their ears. Keeping them inside will also protect them from stray fireworks or from those who may seek to intentionally harm pets with fireworks.

OPINION

JUST A THOUGHT

UST ASK DAVE...

From the desk of the Editor

The Lake House

appeal@parismo.net

It’s Relay Time! One of my favorite times of the year to cover an event is Relay For Life.

I love covering graduation, Fall-In-To Paris, Old Threshers, Homecoming, Courtwarming, Miss Paris and Miss Madison, sports and all other manner of events but Relay For Life has a special meaning.

The evening’s event runs the gauntlet of emotions from the joy of seeing the survivors faces during the survivor lap; the fellowship of visiting with the attendees of the event; to the pure emotion of the luminaria ceremony. A moving, emotional time as the names are softly read to the sound of sighs, crying and sobbing in the background. It is the perfect time for reflection and thought.

As usual my hat goes off to all the Relay For Life of Monroe County Committee members and American Cancer Society coordinators who help put on this night of miracle.

A big thank you to Ali Rentschler who gives of her time so freely to help coordinate this amazing event. Also thank you to all the committee members who plan, execute, fund raise and give up their time to make this event the success it is.

A big thank you to Barb McCall who wears more hats than anyone I have ever known. She is

DAVID EALES

an incredible example of a goer and a doer. Do you need supplies - ask Barb; Do you need a volunteer to help set up or to clean up before or after an event - ask Barb; Do you need someone to spearhead an idea you have to make the community better ask Barb. Do you need to just talk to someone who always has a smile on her face and a positive attitude - definitely ask Barb. I think if you look in Webster’s under inspirational you will see a picture of Barb McCall.

We are definitely lucky to number her as one of our local residents.

These are some of the people who make sure the Relay For Life of Monroe County is a success.

A success for those who need it, a success for those who enjoy it and a success for everyone who attends.

This year’s Relay For Life of Monroe County is this weekend on Saturday night beginning with a Survivor Lap at 6 p.m.

Come join your friends and neighbors for a fantastic night.

MY TURN Just Being a Jerk

Most of us, if we are able to be honest with ourselves, will own up to being or acting like a jerk at some time or another.

At the same time, in a community that I often brag about for being there for our friends and neighbors and mostly kind to each other, we all have also witnessed conduct by others that qualified as acting like a jerk.

“Jerkiness” is not usually a permanent condition and is more like being drunk or high when taking leave of sound judgment is very common. And while a drunk or high individual is also being a jerk, the combination enhances their “jerkiness” and they often become a total jerk for a while.

“Jerkiness” is also an equal opportunity condition open to all genders, races and ages. You can find examples in most kinds of public places and gathering of any kind.

We see this from treatment of servers in some restaurants, in cars double parked in the middle of a busy street while people run an errand.

We see and hear loud curse words in public venues where ladies and kids are subject to it.

We see it in the lack of common courtesy in public meetings and discussions.

It is always, at the instant of acting like a jerk,

about me and my and mine and never about you or your.

It is invariably being selfish and not caring how that comes out.

There probably is no real cure for acting like a jerk because we are often mad, upset or used to doing what others would describe as being a jerk about something.

But we could solicit our family and close friends to help us from having it become a permanent bad habit and bad example for our kids.

Lets make an agreement with our spouses, kids and family members and friends that when we observe each other acting like a jerk we signal that offender with a quick jerk of the head a time or two left or right that he or she is, in fact, being a jerk.

This warning could have several good consequences. It could avoid long arguments, give the offender notice to stop or at least think about what they are doing or saying and give each other some ideas of what we find offensive. It would also seem that a few signals that you are being a jerk from little kids would cause serious reflection on your actions that day.

And, oh yeah, if you see me moving my head to the right and/or left it is not a criticism. I have had a really stiff neck lately.

RJF

Last week my family took a very mini vacation.

The summer has been so incredibly busy that we had not had a chance to get away together. We decided to go to St. Louis for the weekend. We stayed one night at my dad’s house on the lake and the other night in a hotel. I knew my dad was not going to be there because he was going out of town.

He and my mom had always told us to make use of the house when they were there and when they were not there. They built the house on the lake when dad retired and really wanted it to be a place where the family could hang out and enjoy all it’s wonderful attributes and we have honored their request. All seven of us kids along with our children, which I believe is now totaling eighteen, have come to the house on the lake for memorable gettogethers and good times of just hanging out with

LISA TALTON

the family.

The house on the lake has a way of fostering great gatherings. When you walk in the big kitchen you will likely find a group of us standing around snacking and chit chatting while getting the main dishes prepared and put out. The upstairs family room gives way to those who are interested in watching whatever sporting event is on the screen that day. The downstairs area is usually overran by children with a parent or two speckled in just to keep things from getting too out of hand.

Then on some days you are blessed to hear them singing with the karaoke machine.

things change in this life that we do not have any control over but we need to accept the changes and move on. Even though it was different going to the Lake House after my mom died, it wasn’t as different as it was now that my dad was getting married and they were going to live at the Lake House together.

She is an interior designer so she had revamped the whole house. It didn’t look the same. There was new furniture, new paint, new pictures etc. Even though I knew it had to change because now it was their home, I didn’t realize how hard it was going to be.

The pictures of mom that once adorned the walls were no more. All the little things around the house like her collection of angels, her bible with all the pieces of paper tucked inside, and her journal filled with her conversations with God were not there. When you looked around the house you did not see her in the decorations or the furniture or anything. Even Continued to page 3

The steps going downstairs are usually a high traffic area filled with both children and parents going up and down filling needs whether it be finding a toy, looking for mommy or daddy, or wanting to appease their growling bellies with a snack. There are numerous conversations in numerous places about numerous things. And even though there may seem to be a lot of hustle and bustle, there is still a sense and feeling of peace and relaxation.

This Lake House has been a place of togetherness, a place to sit back and relax, a place to hang out and talk, a place to celebrate the holidays, and a place to enjoy and appreciate family. I know it is not the house that makes this happen but rather the people but sometimes it is hard to separate our memories from a place.

(I started writing this article last summer but never finished it. I began to write it because it was on that trip to the Lake House last summer that things changed. It was on that trip that I realized

the toy room where she collected all sorts of toys for her many grandchildren did not look the same.

Again, it was last summer I realized things change.

I would not ever want my dad to be alone just so we could keep memories of mom alive. I understand that the memories I have for her are not defined or kept in a house. I guess I just didn’t realize how hard it was going to be.

This is one of the many, many, many things I rely on God’s help. I need Him to help me rejoice with my dad and his new wife and their new life together. I need Him to help me adjust to the changes that come along with that. I need Him to help me to be unselfish and realize the Lake House is now their house and allow God to help me make new happy memories there. And I know and trust He will)

On May 17, the Madison 4-H club members held a breakfast at the Madison Lion’s Den to help send 11 members to camp. Members donated food items, helped cook, and stood out at the four way stop to collect donations and advertise the breakfast. Because of the wonderful support of Madison, Paris, Moberly and other surrounding towns’ residents, we were able to raise $632. This was enough money to send all 11 members to camp. The members attending 4-H camp this year are Paige Hull, Triston Hull, Miranda Bried, Jonathan Kinyon, Maddison Bried, Molly Clampitt, Macy Holohan, Marissa Holohan, Will Holohan, Nathan Deaver, Ashlyn Petterson, and Connor Jones. A big thank you to the Madison Lion’s Den members for allowing the 4-H to use their building for the breakfast.

On May 22, the Madison 4-H club members met at Sunset Cemetery to put flags on our veterans graves that are no longer with us. Thank you to all the members who continue to support our efforts to honor those who have served our country for our freedom. We will be collecting Friday, May 30, 2014 at 4:15 p.m.

Next club meeting June 22, 2014 at 1 p.m.

Enjoy the summer everyone!

CHURCH NEWS

Pastor Kenny’s message today was titled, “Understanding My Walk with God.” Scripture was taken from 2 Peter 1:1-11. What steps must we take to have access to God? Obtaining a personal relationship with Jesus Christ through faith. Receiving and understanding knowledge in God, and praying daily, studying the word and applying it to our every day life. The understanding comes from the Holy Spirit and is in us to guide us through everything we do and say. God wants us to live Godly lives and our desire should be to want to know and become more like God. Don’t try to do things on your own, let God do things through you, and do whatever you do in the name of Jesus and do it boldly!

Weekly thought from W. H. Fowler is: Give me a task too big, too hard for human hands, then I shall come at length to lean on Thee, and leaning, find my strength.

Attend the church of your choice

On Sunday, June 22, church services began with the pastor giving an opening prayer. Regular church meetings of the week were announced and all were encouraged to attend. Announcements included: a fingernail painting party will be at Miller’s Residential at 1:30 p. m., on June 28, July 12 at 8:30 a.m., is Men’s Breakfast and Tuesday at 7 p.m. is revival at Antioch Church.

The message this week was titled ‘A Mature Living Faith’ and came from 2 Peter 1:5-11. The Apostle Peter writes that Christians need to develop certain spiritual qualities to be useful to Jesus Christ. The reasons why these qualities are to be developed is found in V.1-4.

Basically Peter tells us that our relationship with all mighty God is the reason to develop these qualities.

Verses 5-11 tell us how to develop these needed qualities. Philippians 2:12-13 tells us that we must depend on God to work in our lives to develop the qualities we need. At the same time we also have a part in developing these desired qualities. God will not force these qualities on us. We have to desire them and seek to grow them in our lives.

Peter gives an impressive list of spiritual qualities to be developed in the Christian life. These qualities work together in a way that if you start to develop one quality the others will also start to grow. The key words here is ‘giving all diligence’ to growing these qualities. We must be careful to grow properly in Christ. Growing in the truth of God takes focus and dedication to properly transfer that growth into the proper actions and attitudes.

If a Christian will not lose their salvation if they do not develop these qualities, why bother? Because Peter says you will be barren (lazy, worthless), unfruitful, and blind to the real purposes of life. An honest read of the New Testament shows how important to God spiritual fruit is. Living as if one is blind is shameful because Christ has given us the light of the world to see by. This blindness shows a person storing their treasure on a temporary earth instead of the eternal heaven. At some point the person will even forget the value of their salvation in Christ; as if Christ did not die for you.

No Christian should ever stand before Christ at their reckoning in this condition. God has made the godly life available to us through His Son and the power of the Holy Spirit in us. God gives the promise that if you live a diligent Christian life you will not fail. This promise depends on both God and man. God will do His part but will you?

While the rewards we will receive in heaven are not the focus of our growth in Christ, God does promise a rich reward to those who live the godly life. There will be different degrees of reward in heaven. The value of your salvation on earth will determine the reward awaiting you in heaven. Being obedient and faithful to Christ shows the value of your salvation. Work out your salvation in trembling and fear.

Announcement was made of the successful Bible school organized and led by Barbara Stewart. Eightyfive children attended and fifty-three workers assisted.

A presentation was given of Bible pictures. Michael Hammond and Shelby De Tienne led the children singing and presenting hand motions to their theme song.

Michael and Shelby are involved in missions for Vacation Bible School serving in 11 different churches or groups. Diana Hammond followed with the children’s sermon. The motto of Bible school was Discover, Decide and Defend. The children learned on Day 1, Jesus was God’s son; Day 2, Jesus was more than just a good man; Day 3, Jesus died for us so we have forgiveness; Day 4, The tomb was empty so we know Jesus is alive today; Day 5, Defend what we have learned. The Bible tells us that Peter preached a sermon and 3,000 people were saved.

At 5:30 on Sunday evening Bible School was concluded with a presentation to the church family.

Other announcements: (All events p.m. unless otherwise indicated) Wednesday, June 25, 6, Ladies salad supper at the Methodist church; Thursday, June 26, Blood Drive 1-6; Sunday, June 29, 5:30, Fifth Sunday Fellowship (Carry-in Picnic) at City Park - meat provided.

Steve Ensor gave the Call to Worship from 1 Peter, Chap. 3, v. 13-17. DeDe and John Mitchell led children’s church. Cheryl Gholson provided special music with a solo entitled, “Knowing Him”.

Reverend Wesley Hammond’s sermon was entitled “Eternal Life”. God is a person we all have in our life; as a Creator he created everyone. We choose whether we accept him in our life. The things Jesus wanted for his disciples: Eternal life that they may know the only true God and the secret of a full and meaningful life is not in what you know, but who you know. We should give God full access to our life so that we have protection by His power and joy in God’s presence.

are reminded to take precautions keeping them safe from heat exhaustion or heat stroke.

Last year, 47 Missourians died from heat exhaustion and heat stroke, and health professionals from the Monroe County Health Department and the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services remind residents that it’s not only the very young and very old who are affected. (See chart 1) Remember these basic tips from your local health department to protect you and your family during severe heat and heat emergencies: · Check on family, friends and neighbors who do not have air conditioning and who spend much of their time alone. · Never leave children or pets alone in closed vehicles. · Eat light, well-balanced meals at regular intervals. · Drink plenty of water and limit intake of alcoholic beverages. · Wear loose-fitting, lightweight and light-colored clothes that cover as much skin as possible. · Protect your face and head by wearing a widebrimmed hat. Wear sunscreen. · Avoid strenuous work during the warmest part of the day; use the buddy system when working in extreme heat and take fre-

Their retreat could be a basement or an interior room like a bathroom. Provide access to clean, cool water.

Close all windows and turn on a radio or television to mask the sounds. Have your pet’s favorite toys and bed to comfort him. o If you can’t avoid taking your dog to the festivities, keep your pet on a short, secure leash at all times and watch for signs of stress. Never use a retractable leash in these situations. Have a back-up plan should your dog become overwhelmed by the activities.

Make certain your dog wears a collar and ID tag at all times. For more secure identification, pet owners should consider microchipping as a permanent way to identify pets and help ensure a safe return if lost.

Keep your veterinarian’s phone number handy in case of any medical emergencies.

quent breaks. · Consider spending the warmest part of the day in public buildings such as libraries, schools, movie theaters, shopping malls and other community facilities. · Be aware of medications that may impair the body’s response to heat, including antihistamines, tranquilizers and some medications for heart disease.

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) monitors high temperatures and humidity across the state to prevent heat-related illness and death. The elderly and the chronically ill are more vulnerable to the effects of high temperatures. They perspire less and are more likely to have health problems requiring medications that can impair the body’s response to heat. Many prescription medications make individuals more sensitive to the heat. Some of these medications include antipsychotics, major tranquilizers, antihistamines, over-the-counter sleeping pills, antidepressants, heart drugs and some antiParkinsonian agents. Each year many Missourians suffer from heat-related illnesses, with some cases resulting in death. During prolonged periods of high temperatures, air conditioning is the best preventive measure.

If you have any questions or concerns about a heat related issue, immediately see a medical professional.

Sources: Department of Health and Senior Services, Monroe County Health Department

To keep your pet safe do not: o Don’t leave your pet unattended in a parked car.

When the outside temperature is above 70 degrees, the heat inside your car can climb to more than 100 degrees in only minutes. Your pet can suffer dehydration, heat stroke or death. o Don’t take pets to festivities. The excitement and noise could cause them to become nervous and run away.

Don’t let your pet loose or leave your pet in a yard unattended during the holiday weekend, even if you are only a few backyards away. A stray bottle rocket could frighten or injure your dog.

Don’t confine a fearful dog on a chain or in a small area such as a crate. This could increase his panic.

Don’t punish your pet for his behavior related to the loud noises. It will only make him more afraid.

Pastor John Grimmett

The Paris Presbyterian Church held worship service Sunday, June 15. The ushers for this week’s servcie were Albert Sinkclear, Larry Turner and John Hayhurst. Patti Grimmett led the congregation into worship service with, “Morning Has Broken.” The musical call to worship was, “Love Divine.” Pastor John Grimmett led the responsive reading from Psalm 40.

Pastor John Grimmett read the announcements and asked for prayer concerns. He gave a pastoral prayer and The Lord’s Prayer. The special music piece was, “I Never Get Used to What You Do.” Pastor John Grimmett read the scripture reading from Romans 6. Pastor John Grimmett gave the message entitled, “Lay Your Burdens Down.” The closing hymn was, “Hear the Good News of Salvation.” Patti Grimmett led the congregation out of worship service with, “Amazing Grace.”

The Paris Presbyterian Church will hold worship service next Sunday, June 29. Sunday school begins at 9:30 a.m., followed by worship service at 10:45 a.m.

Anyone is welcome to attend

Services Sunday, June 22 began with Patti Grimmett playing “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name” on the piano followed by singing “Come Thou Fount”, “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus”, “Doxology”, “Amazing Grace” and “Threefold Amen”.

Pastor John Grimmett led the responsive reading from Psalm 40 with prayer for Jenny; J.D. Whelan; Faye Plair; Jean Deason; Nadine’s sister; C.D. Lloyd residents; and the family of Jimmy Moore; Richard Earl; Margaret Birlew; Angie Koch; Michael Sheffield; and for the peace in the world. Praise for Ryan and Abby’s upcoming wedding; Happy Birthday was sung to Arla Eisenhower and Billie Cearley. A thank you was read from Shonda Galloway.

The morning special “I Never Get Used to What You Do” was sung by Patti as she played guitar.

The message “Lay Your Burdens Down” was based on scripture from Romans 6 as we are recipients of God’s grace...live a life that honors God... Sin separates us from God... follow the Ten Commandments as Paul writes - Abraham is the father of many faiths, just as God promised him... a father of many nations. The shed blood of Jesus made us right with God! Don’t carry your burdens around, give them up to God. Look at who you are through Jesus Christ - be baptized in the spirit of Jesus Christ. Baptism shows we are now someone different - don’t let sin weigh you down! Jesus has taken all that weight away - lay it down at the foot of the cross! Be the person God designed you to be...

Kaylee Beckham led the Offertory as Patti played “Softly and Tenderly Jesus Is Calling”.

Patti played “Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus” as all retired in fellowship.

Services are held every Sunday at 9 a.m. and all are welcome and invited to come hear the word of the Lord.

“Make me to know thy ways, O LORD, teach me thy paths, Lead me in thy truth, and teach me, for thou art the God of my salvation; for thee I wait all the day long. “ Psalms 24: 4-5
