THANK YOU OTSEGO & PLAINWELL POST OFFICE EMPLOYEES I want to thank the Plainwell & Otsego Post Office Employees and Mail Carriers for conducting their yearly food drive to stamp out hunger. Through our communities’ giving spirit, the Postal Employees collected over 6600 pounds of food, valuing in excess of $8500, for our local food pantry and helping agency, “Christian Neighbors,” which serves those in need locally. The Post Office Employees and Mail Carriers are to be commended for taking time out of their Saturday schedule to provide such a wonderful service to people in need in our community, especially during these tough economic times.

Special thanks to Bud Berry, Fred Torres of the Plainwell Post Office and Julie Wheeler and Anne Kyes-Hill of the Otsego Post Office for organizing and helping with the event. Also, special thanks to Pizza Hut for providing pizza for all of the volunteers; RJ’s Expediting and Harding’s for lending their trucks; and all of the many volunteers, including Otsego’s Mayor, Tom Gilmer, who worked on the project to make it possible. Lastly, thank you to our community who donated food to this effort!!

Blessings, Terri Shaler

“A TIME TO REMEMBER” “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven” – Eccles. 3:1

KIDS-5 & Under FREE

Mom, Dad, Chris & Alex

Words of

This week-end has been set aside on our national calendar to especially remember those who paid the supreme price to secure and preserve our freedom. Decoration Day, as it was known for many years, was founded by General John A. Logan, commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, a private organization representing the Union Army veterans. It was intended, in Logan’s words, “for the purpose of strewing flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, hamlet or churchyard of the land.”

Opportunities to remember abound in the Otsego/Plainwell area. John Foss, a World War II veteran, said “Those of us who lived have to represent those who did not make it.” This solemn remembrance is an occasion to express thanksgiving for the freedoms we so often take for granted.

Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair was asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America. He replied, “A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in … And how many want out.”

It has been said, “Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: l. Jesus Christ 2. The American G.I. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

May we remember these words as we gather in our places of worship this week. Let us pray for our nation, for our nation’s leaders and for all those who have served and are presently serving our country.

And may we recall the hopeful words of an ancient proverb “Righteousness alone exalts a nation” (Proverbs 14:34).

Prayer: We lift our nation to you, O God. Thank you for those who gave their lives that we may live in freedom. Thank you for dying for our sins that we may forever live for You. In Jesus’ name.

Amen.

Peace to you and please join us for worship this Sunday in a church where Jesus’ love is lived.

We are a debt relief agency. We help people file for bankruptcy relief under the bankruptcy code.

Mattress Mart has teamed up with Partners In Housing Transition to provide beds for families in need. “Mattress Mart has a long tradition of community service, starting in 1992 with my father Tony Scheuer,” stated Trent Scheuer, owner of Mattress Mart. “We wanted to celebrate our 20th anniversary with a new community service program, and when I became aware of Partners In Housing Transition and the scope of their work in our community, I knew we had to find a way to help out.” Mattress Mart now makes monthly donations of full size mattress sets to Partners In Housing Transition.

Bob Small, Coordinator for Partners In Housing Transition, stated, “It is our goal that no child should have to sleep on the floor. Mattress Mart has been a significant team member, helping to turn four bare walls into a family home filled with hope.” Mattress Mart’s recent donations of full size mattress sets will be used for the parents of the children being assisted by Partners In Housing Transition.

Last year, Partners in Housing Transition provided help for 88 families with 196 children.

The estimated cost of furnishings donated reached $57,000. “And that’s using average prices from charity outlets. The market value of donated furniture is actually much higher,” said Small.

Mattress Mart is a local, family-owned business serving Mid-Michigan and Northern Indiana. Noted as one of the Midwest's premier sleep shops, the company has been featured in multiple national publications for their consumerfriendly business model and achievements in community service and sales. For more information about Mattress Mart, contact Trent Scheuer at (269) 552-9019, or email him at: information@mattmart.com Partners In Housing Transition is the signature outreach program of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. Founded in 1991, the project’s mission is to assist formerly homeless families reach self-sufficiency through the provision of basic furniture and household furnishings, including beds, bedding, this includes furniture, small appliances, dishes, pots, pans, towels and lamps.

For more information about Partners In Housing Transition, contact Robert Small at (269) 385-2466, or email him at rgsmall@ntelos.net.

Maybe it’s you?!

Jazz lost his home when his family had to relocate. That is very sad, but Jazz is ready to fall in love again. This is a dog that was really made for a home. Jazz is a bit of a bashful boy, who is secretly full of life! You just have to get to know him before you find that out. Being new to the kennel, he was a little overwhelmed at first by all of the hustle and bustle. You just have to get to know him before you find that out. Jazz has gentle eyes, and a gentle heart to match. He walks nicely on a leash. Once Jazz realizes that you are a potential friend, he warms up quickly and is right by your side.
