He was hit by a car and received a serious case of road rash on his back, but lucky for Atlas, no broken bones! Atlas was brought to the shelter where he was treated for his wounds. Although he is still healing up, Atlas is now ready to be adopted into his forever home. Atlas is a sweetie, friendly and medium energy - meaning he will gladly go on a nice walk, or play for a bit and then be happy to chill out on the couch and relax. Atlas likes yummy snacks and takes treats like a gentleman. He is 2.5 years old and weighs 61 pounds. He gets along with other dogs, so if your home already includes a dog a meet and greet will be set up to make sure the dogs are a good match. If your home includes cats too, a follow up test can be conducted to confirm he would behave well around cats (first indications are that he would do fine). It is recommended that any children in his forever home are 8 years old and up. If you would like to give Atlas an awesome home to finish up his recovery, please fill out an adoption application at:

“THE CONFIDENCE VERSE” “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” ~ Philippians 4:13 NKJV
By Rev. Dan Minor - revdminor1945@gmail.com _____________________________________
I have been talking about my top ten verses (In no particular order) in the Bible. I have turned to the above verse often. I have shared it with others. It is a verse which reminds us of the Source of our strength. That is why I call it the confidence verse. Here is the back story. In his final words of encouragement to the church at Philippi, Apostle Paul encourages believers to stand firm in their faith and to always remember Whom they are serving. In 4:1 he speaks of his affection for the people he has served calling them “my joy and my crown.” It is always a plus to love the people we are serving. In spite of everything life throws at us, his final words of encouragement are “Rejoice in the Lord always” (4:4). Joy is easy to find when things are going well, but where is our source of happiness when things are not going well? Keep reading. In 4:6 he reminds us to take our anxiety to the Lord in prayer. The outcome of prayer is “the peace of God, which transcends all understanding” (4:7). Have you experienced such peace? God has promised to guard our minds as we think the thoughts of Christ (4:7, 8). In 4:11-12 the apostle knew what it meant to be content regardless of his circumstances. Therefore, “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13. Keep this verse in your mind and you will have all the confidence you need. Prayer: Dear Lord, we will do our best and trust you for the rest. In Your strong name. Amen.
Thank You! qwertyuiopas

Jerry L. CURRY, Sr. AGE 87 - MARTIN, MI
Jerry passed away Friday, July 01, 2022, at his home in Martin surrounded by family. He was born March 26, 1935, in Martin, the son of Russell and Florence (Knight) Curry. In 1950 Jerry joined the Watson Bible Church where he remained a member until his passing. On August 5, 1955, in Watson, Township, he married the love of his life since the 8th grade, Dorla Kent. Jerry was a lifelong resident of Martin. He excelled in football, basketball, baseball and track during his high school career. Well known for his athletic accomplishments throughout Bar-Ken Al League he was a 1955 Graduate of Martin High School. Jerry worked for Brown Company, Eaton Corporation and retired from Martin High School in 2002 as a maintenance supervisor. During his time with Martin Public Schools he was awarded the employee of the year in 1999-2000. He continued his athletic participation after high school playing baseball for the Bradley Indians, fast pitch softball for Eaton Corporation, slow pitch softball for McLeod’s, and umpired high school baseball and softball. He was an active member of the Martin Athletic Boosters Club, working at the Martin craft show for 14 years. As many know he was a loyal fan of Clipper athletics for more than 50 years. In 2006 he was honored by the M.H.S. wrestling team as “Most Faithful Fan”. On February 16, 2007, he was inducted into the Martin Hall of Fame. Surviving are his children, Beth McGuire of Martin; Jerry Jr. (Pat) Curry of Martin; Bradley (Janet) Curry of Canyon Lake, TX; Tim Curry of Martin; and Chris Curry of Plainwell; 11 grandchildren, Amber (Chris) Johnson of Traverse City, MI; Steven (Alysa) McGuire of Stanwood; Michael (Natalie) McGuire of Kalamazoo; Jennifer Curry of Martin; Eric (Lisa) Curry of Cooper; Dana (Clay) Moore, Andy (Leigh) Curry, and Sara Curry of Canyon Lake, TX; Kailee Curry of Otsego; Courtney (Matt) Lesley of Charlotte, NC; and Carissa Curry of Plainwell; 15 great-grandchildren; sister, Shirley Buskirk of Martin; brother, Jack Curry of FL; and sisters-in-law, Sharon (Chick) Curry of Martin; Marva Curry of Gun Lake; Marilyn Curry of Portage; and Jan (Dan) Hamilton of FL. He was preceded in death by his wife, Dorla; parents; and brothers, Robert Curry, Larry Curry, and Russell Curry Jr. Friends may visit with Jerry’s family from 9:00 am until 10:30 am with the funeral service taking place at 11:00 A.M. on Saturday, July 09, 2022, at Watson Bible Church, 1626 116th Ave, Otsego, MI, 49078, with Pastor Mike Hasper officiating.

Where Volunteers Make It Happen.
I DARE YOU TO BE LOVED... When people listen, God speaks. When people obey, God acts. When God acts, people change. Listen to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you I pray. O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch. Psalm 5:2-3 “Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his voice. John 10:1-3a REFLECTION: Nothing is more destructive to a church than when degenerate wolves ravage church leaders. When God assembles his people together, he points Christ as the only door which we are to enter his Kingdom. The good shepherds (pastors) lead people straight to Christ first, then guide them to love God. When God calls his sheep by name he unites us together by His Spirit. PRAYER TIME: Heavenly Father, guide my heart and mind today as I reflect on being one of Your children. Give me hope today instead of discouragement, give me peace instead of chaos. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
