New Prague Moving Forward on Small Cities Rehab Grant

Owners of commercial and residential rental properties in the downtown New Prague area may have the opportunity to receive grant money for rehabilitation work now that the city has agreed to participate in a state program, the New Prague Times recently reported. The New Prague City Council recently OK’d a resolution supporting participation a small cities development program. The grant will monetary help when qualifying applicants perform rehab work in a designated area. Applications for grant money are due Feb. 23.

City Council (continued from page 1) Park, which was seconded by Stier. Although Meyer also expressed fiscal concerns during the discussions, he joined McDaniel and Stier in voting yes. Chard said Tuesday morning that “I’ve always supported the Vets Club and all veterans and will continue to support them. I just hope the ADF doesn’t let the group and the taxpayers of Belle Plaine down.” Coop, who joined Chard in voting no, was accused on the Defend Veterans Park Facebook page and elsewhere on social media of having contacted the FFRF about the cross at Veterans Park, which led to its removal. Coop, who did not make any statements Monday night other than casting his no vote, told the Herald Friday said he is opposed to religious displays on city property, but that he “did not” contact the FFRF. Parrish had recently requested under the Minnesota Data Practices Act that the city review all phone and email and communications from Coop with the FFRF. In responding to Parrish, City Administrator Mike Votca stated: “I acknowledge that you would like your data practices act request to be all communications with Freedom From Religion Foundation to or from Council Member Coop . . . I requested that Mr. Coop provide me with any communications between him and the Freedom From Religion Foundation. He told me that he has had no communications between himself and the Freedom From Religion Foundation. I searched the city email data base for communications between Mr. Coop and the Freedom From Religion Foundation and could not find any data matching this request.” The memorial the cross was a part of was made by the lateJoe Gregory, a U.S. Marine veteran. Gregory created the memorial to honor those from Belle Plaine who served and died for their country. But FFRF’s complaint to the city of Belle Plaine read: “In Veterans Memorial Park in the city of Belle Plaine, Minn., there is a display of a soldier kneeling before a Latin cross next to the Veterans Memorial Stone. This display was reportedly added to the park very recently. “We certainly have no objection to veterans’ memorials,” continued the complaint. “But it is unlawful for a city government to display patently religious symbols on city property, even to commemorate our veterans. It shows an endorsement of religion over non-religion. Additionally, the memorial sends a message that the government cares only about the death of Christian soldiers and is disdainful of the sacrifices made by non-Christian and nonreligious soldiers, since it excludes the one-third of the population that identifies as such. Please act appropriately and move the religious display off city property.” The FFRF, following a complaint in 2015 about the Belle

Prague. She said her late parents attended both Methodist and Presbyterian churches over the years. Goulson’s approach is both personable and open to new ideas. Not one to lecture from the pulpit, she said she “speaks from the heart” and works to establish eye contact with congregants during her sermons. Goulson works to be encouraging and brings energy to services. She addresses issues head-on. “Sometimes I’m a little too honest,” she said.

Bring a Spark

Bartholomew and the other members of the First Presbyterian congregation are hoping Goulson can bring more life, and members, to the church on West Main Street. The church’s strengths are its financial transparency, friendly people and leadership. It is challenged by a need for younger members and, like many congregations, increased revenue. First Pres-

byterian has switched its Sunday worship service to 5 p.m. in an effort to appeal to younger families. Working as a pastor is a second career for Goulson, one that brings her peace and fulfillment. She worked for years as a laboratory technician and technical writer at Queen of Peace Hospital in New Prague. After her ordination, her first call was to a retirement community in Northfield. She had decided to follow a call to the ministry in 1993. But the arrival of Diane and Darryl’s second adopted child delayed the onset of her journey to seminary school until 1998. Today, the Goulsons have three children, ages 28, 23 and 15. She entered the ministry as a way to help care for people’s spiritual needs. Goulson wants to share her gifts and talents of music and passion for the written and spoken word. “I feel like I have some good news to share,” she said.

These were among the many people who made their way to the Vets Club and then to city hall for the city council meeting Monday.
