See an ER doctor within 30 minutes. Guaranteed. D
Because every minute matters. In medical emergencies, time is critical. In some cases it’s a key factor in recovery. In heart, brain and spine emergencies, it can be a matter of survival. That’s why Borgess-Pipp Hospital re-engineered their ER processes to make sure every patient gets seen by an ER physician in 30 minutes or less. You’ll not only be seen faster, but by ER physicians considered among the best in the region. Add to that Borgess’ national reputation for excellence in matters of the heart, brain and spine, and the decision of where to go in an emergency becomes as easy as saying, “take me to Borgess-Pipp Hospital.”

My name is Karen McGuire, the daughter of Jimmy & Kumi McGuire and I'm a 7th grader at Woodrow Wilson Middle School. Recently, I was accepted into a program called People to People. This summer, I will be taking a trip to England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales to learn about their cultures and what it takes to become a student ambassador. I need to raise funds for my tuition on this trip. One of the ways is recycling old, used or even broken cell phones. I am working with a company called PhoneRaiser in Texas. I send them the cell phones; they refurbish them and send them to third-world countries or people in the army. I found out through this program that 1 phone can contaminate up to 39,000 gallons of water if disposed of in a normal landfill, and that currently only 4% of the cell phones get recycled.
If you have any old cell phones, or work for a company that might have a pile of them laying around the office, could you PLEASE bring them to:
Community Shoppers Guide 117 N. Farmer St., Otsego (where my Aunt Christie works) Thank you very much for your help! For more information about People to People visit: www.peopletopeople.com

Words of
Faith &Hope
WHAT IS FAITH? “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” – Hebrews 11:1 (N.I.V.) “Faith is simply believing God” – Hannah Whitehall Smith Once a man walked across a desert in desperate search of water. Imagine his delight when he came upon a pump with a note inside which read as follows: “This pump is all right as of June, l932. I put a new sucker washer into it and it ought to last five years. But the washer dries out and the pump has got to be primed. Under the white rock I buried a bottle of water, out of the sun and corked up. There’s enough in it to prime the pump, but not if you drink some first. Pour about one-fourth and let her soak to wet the leather. Then pour in the rest medium fast and pump like crazy. You’ll git water. The well has never run dry. Have faith. When you git watered up, fill the bottle and put it back like you found it for the next feller. (Signed) Desert Pete.” This old story illustrates 3 truths concerning faith: 1. To believe is to trust. “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6). 2. To believe is to risk. Would the traveler in the desert drink the water in the bottle or use it to prime the pump? I like the way William Sloan Coffin said it. “Faith is not believing without evidence, but trusting without reservation.” 3. To believe is to act. Our friend in the desert was told to “pump like crazy.” In James 2:17 (N.I.V.) we read, “… faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.” It is only when our faith is accompanied by actions that our words become authentic; our witness compelling; and our love for Christ contagious. Prayer: “Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief.” (Mark 9:24) In Jesus’ name. Amen Peace to you and please join us for worship this Sunday in a church where “Jesus’ love is lived.” – Rev. Dan Minor Pastoral friend & colleague of Rev. Joe Shaler Sponsored In Part by:

More often than not, Jericho runs away from new faces. But if you sit quietly for a little while, and let him approach you, he will come over and sniff your hand. It is hard to resist the urge to reach out to him right away, because he is so little and cute. Those who spend time with him agree - Jericho definitely has it in him to become a full-fledged love bug. It will just take a little kindness, and a little patience. Call or email anytime.

Madelene REYNOLDS AGE 95 - PORTAGE (formerly of Plainwell)
Madelene went to be with her Lord January 9, 2012. Mrs. Reynolds was born July 7, 1916 in Pearl, Michigan, to Winfield and Cora Bell (Tuttle) Bunce. On March 20, 1933 she married Wm. Orville Reynolds and for many years they owned and operated a dairy farm in Kalamazoo where they raised their five children. After retiring from the farm they operated an antique business. She enjoyed ceramics and gardening, and at age 60 started oil and water color painting. Madelene was a wonderful Christian mother and a true homemaker. She will be remembered as a generous Christian woman with a sweet spirit that touched many lives, one who was always busy helping others. She was a happy, healthy person.
