Hope Children’s Home Rescuing the Next Generation
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” – John 3:16 “He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.” – Matthew 28:6 There are many religions in the world today that promise many things. You can travel to the burial sites of their leaders to pay homage and worship. But Easter sets Christianity apart from all the rest. On Easter we celebrate a promise that Jesus made to believers, a promise that He would be raised from the dead and ascend unto God, the Father, to reign with Him. If Jesus would have stayed in the grave, He’d have been just like all the other gods of religions around the world. But He didn’t. What a Savior!
Easter is also a time when the vast majority of people around the world head to church. Dressed in new church attire, they meet together in churches spanning the globe to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The staff and children of Hope Children’s Home do the same thing. The only difference is, we have 70 new outfits to purchase. Normally, we are able to use gift cards donated during the Christmas holidays. However, the past couple of years, the donations have been much lower than normal. Last year, people stepped forward to provide us a last-minute opportunity to take the children and get them a new outfit for Easter.

A Month of Deep Reflection
Samantha Taylor Pure Health & Fitness Studios April is a good time to reflect on life. Spring has just begun, you are recovered from the rush of the holiday season, and summer is around the corner. Yet it also makes you think about how it’s already April, we are through the first quarter of the year of 2014 and just as quick, it will be 2015. In the midst of the journey from here until Jan of 2015 are days full with choices. We can either be disciplined and get it done or we can be riddled with excuses of why it wasn’t. In the end, we are the only one that will look ourselves in the mirror and really know that either we did it or we didn’t. We either took care of our health or we didn’t. I saw a T-shirt one day that said, “There are two pains in life: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret.” Discipline is not always easy, however, it’s much more enjoyable to do what it takes to be more disciplined then it is to live in regret. That is one thing about this life that is wonderful but is also a challenge—we have a free will. We aren’t robots made to just walk out this life blindly doing all the things that are good for us, we have a free will and we can choose whether to do something that is helpful or harmful to our lives. Honestly, I think that so many people are just so busy, so caught up in life and were not really taught to make health a major priority that it just gets shoved under the carpet. Yet the more you shove your health under the carpet and don’t deal with it, the
more it will soon become this giant lump that you start tripping over and will cause harm. I have been in the health and fitness industry for over 21 years and I really can’t believe how blind most Americans are to their health. It saddens me to even walk through the grocery store and see how sick, tired, and out of shape most have become. But you know what? We will never change what we tolerate. We have to choose to not accept that for our lives anymore. We have to choose that it matters to take care of our bodies and what better time than April to do that? It’s also a great month of reflection because of Resurrection Sunday (aka Easter). Personally, it’s the day I experienced really meeting God for the first time almost 19 years ago. This bodybuilder at the gym would not stop talking about Jesus, and my husband didn’t really want to hear it anymore. So the guy said, “If you go to church with me on Easter, I will stop talking about it.” So we went and that day changed our lives. It really is amazing how one decision can change your life so dramatically. Not only did my husband and I surrender our lives to God and accept Christ as our personal savior that day, but it catapulted me into an amazing experience of helping people learn how to walk out the power of God in their lives and how to take what the Bible says can be done in your life and actually experience it. Now I am blessed to have a Christian business where I can serve women in helping them honor their body as the Temple of God and become healthier so they have more energy and stamina to do the things God has called them to do in life. I encourage you to get to church this Easter. Even if you haven’t been in a long time, just go. It can be a great turning point in
your life. And if you are going to church, invite someone else to go with you, you never know who will say, “Yes” just like I did and how many lives their life can impact. I would like to give you a free CD I recorded as I was recently finishing my 3 year Advanced Theology degree. It’s called

Golfers Don’t Throw in the Towel!
Rick Bradshaw PGA Professional/GM & Food Enthusiast Many years ago, a twelve-time PGA Champions Tour Winner and I were featured on the golf channel to show the secret to power in the golf swing. Jim Dent knows a thing or two about power, as he won the first three world long drive championships back in the early 1970’s and hit a drive 426 yards at age 62 in a Champions Tour event in Atlanta, Georgia. I personally like to demonstrate the secrets to effortless power by driving the ball one-handed and have done so with pretty good success even now at age 64, hitting the golf ball close to 275 yards. One of the favorite segments of the viewers was the sleeping rabbit drill demonstrated by Jim Dent. The concept is to take a long white towel and tie the end in a knot, leaving two white ears. Not only does this knot make one end heavy but makes the towel look like a sleeping rabbit dangling down as a golfer addresses the ball. The drill is executed properly by keeping your elbows close to your side as you start rotating to and fro to get the towel to
sling up and slap you on each side, waking the sleeping rabbit up. This drill gets you to feel how to use resistance of your legs to whip the towel up on the backswing and through on the downswing the same as when swinging a golf club. Another drill used by a high majority of tour players as well as myself is to place a towel under both armpits with the towel resting on your chest and then hit some 7 or 8 iron shots. This drill will get your arms and body working in harmony and together as you pivot. Possibly my favorite towel drill involves wetting the towel and then holding it in front of you as you twist it until the water rings out of it. It is this wringing of the wet towel that I would like golfers to imagine that their midsection or core achieves on the backswing as a result of their full and complete shoulder rotation against the resistance of their spikes grabbing the ground. Finally the towel snap drill, which is well-known in gym class, will show you how the release of energy occurs in the golf swing. Golfers don’t throw in the towel. In fact, use it to enhance your swing with these drills.

Cook Like A Restaurant Chef
Kevin Lacassin Chef/Owner, The Green Hop at Heritage Isles There are many reasons that we love restaurants: convenience, atmosphere, service, and especially because the food tastes great! While I would never steer you away from dining out, below are some “behind the scenes” tips to give your meals at home restaurant flair. It takes many years of experience and practice for most chefs to create great food, so I won’t promise that you can duplicate what they do, but I hope you’ll enjoy turning your weekday dinners into a restaurant-style experience. Vary your cooking techniques. Don’t just stick everything in the oven and wait for it to cook. Try sautéing your steak in a hot pan to develop a crust and then roast it in the oven to finish. Your fresh vegetables can be steamed, but slow roasting them with the right amount of olive oil, salt and fresh cracked black pepper can really help to bring out the natural flavors. Season at every step and taste the food
that you cook. Very few people can judge the amount of seasoning in a dish purely by looking at it. Before adding that additional cayenne pepper to your dish, take a bite of it. Restaurant cooks have a cup of tasting spoons next to their station and you should, too. Inexpensive plastic spoons work great. Use more butter. Unfortunately, it is true: butter makes food taste better. Have you wondered why your fish entree at a restaurant has such a rich flavor while the same dish made at home falls flat? The buttery flavor of that fish didn’t happen by accident. (This article isn’t about healthy cooking.) Don’t forget the acid. One thing you’ll find at top-notch restaurants is balanced flavor, which means there is just enough acid to help brighten the dish and balance out the other components. You can get that acid from a squeeze of citrus, flavored vinegar, or your favorite wine. Just save enough to drink with your meal.

The Largest Passover Seder in Tampa
In celebration of Passover, hundreds of USF students are expected to join the largest traditional public Passover Seder in Tampa. The Seder will be celebrated with true Bull spirit and we will be eating Matzah and drinking four cups of wine. The Passover Seder will take place on April 14th, 2014 at 8:30pm and April 15th, 2014 at 9:00pm at the Chabad Jewish Student Center. Based on last year’s overwhelming attendance, organizers are expecting well over 100 students this year, making it by far the largest organized Student Passover Seder in Tampa. All students, regardless of affiliation, religious background, or level of observance are invited. The Passover evening and Seder will relive the historical events, replete with the Mah Nish Tanah, traditional handmade Matzah, four cups of wine, lively dialogue, and an exquisite Kosher for Passover meal. This interactive Seder is sure to provide an inviting atmosphere of warmth and acceptance.
“This Seder is an opportune time to bring unity to the community, and just get together to enjoy each other’s company,” says Mrs. Chava Backman – Co-Director of the Center. “It’s the Passover Seder that has kept families together for thousands of years as we unite with millions throughout the world in reliving our redemption from slavery. “Passover teaches us to liberate ourselves and look beyond that which restricts us. Every day is a gift from God and the customs of the Seder bring this concept to life. What a great way to relive the Exodus – people walking away focusing on what really matters!” Passover teaches, inspires, empowers, and challenges us to leave “Egypt” each day, from our self-imposed “slavery.” It illuminates our innate desire to subdue the “Pharaoh” within, i.e. the impulse to live a life which does not conform to who we truly are,” said Rabbi Pinny Backman – Director of the Center. “Everyone will make the right decision for themselves.” If you would like to sponsor a student for the Passover Seder or for more info, visit www.USFChabad.com/donate. For more info on the Passover Seders: For students and parents around the USF area, please contact Rabbi Pinny Backman Chabad at USF http://www.USFChabad.com. For the Wesley Chapel community, contact Rabbi Mendy Yarmush, Chabad at Wiregrass, http://www.chabadatwiregrass.com.

By What Authority Do You Do These Things? And Who Gave You This Authority?
This question was asked of Jesus by the religious leaders of His day. He answered this question with a question and required their response before he would answer them. What was Jesus teaching? His question concerning John the Baptist would require them to identify the authority John was acting on. “John’s baptism, was it of man or of God?” Jesus was basically asking, “Was John acting on his own or was he really obeying God?” People today, just as in Jesus’ day, measure their own actions and those of others by some standard of right and wrong. That standard may have been the result of values passed down by parents or teachers or self-determined values simply being the result of how they “feel” about something. I would ask you by what authority do you live your life? Where do you go to find answers and receive direction? Do you look to the evening news or consult ask.com? Where you receive your information is very important. I am often amazed how people who need financial advice ask someone who is less than successful financially or seek marital advice from someone who has been divorced numerous times. We cannot live day-to-day just by how we
“feel” about something because tomorrow those “feelings” might change. We all need a reliable and sure standard by which we live our lives. An authority that is absolute and time-tested. The psalmist declared, “Forever, O Lord, your word is settled in heaven” (Ps. 119:89). Solomon, the wisest of all the kings, instructed his sons to pay attention to the word of God, for it would bring them life and health. The apostle Paul taught that all scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for instruction and direction so we would be complete and fully equipped for every good work. John showed us the will of God for us is to have life and to have it more abundantly. John said, “This life is in Jesus, the Son of God, and whoever has the Son of God has life.” It was John who also described Jesus as the Word of God made flesh. Can we go to the Word of God, the Bible, today for advice and instruction? Some people have claimed they “tried it” and it didn’t work for them. Others believe it to be outdated for our modern world. But Jesus said the measure of value we place on the Word of God would be the measure of power and wisdom and life we receive from the Word of God. The things in this life and the next depend on the eternal authority of God’s word. It is too important for you to rely on someone else or even your “feelings” for the answers. Value the Word of God yourself and it will give you the answers you need. Dr. Dan Coflin and his wife Dianne are Senior Pastors of River of Life Church in Lutz. Sunday service 10:30. 410 E.

The Caregiver Corner
Home Health vs. Home Care Home Health Care involves the delivery of some type of skilled care (delivery of medications, wound care, home infusions, catheter care, ostomy care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and rehab). These “skilled” services are tied to specific medical diagnosis associated with health care insurance reimbursable procedures. They are provided by Registered Nurses, LPN’s, Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, etc. While providing these skilled ser-

vices, the provider may authorize one or two bath visits a week (provided by a CNA). Typically these are authorized after a hospital and/ or rehab stay. However, your health insurance provider (Medicare, etc.) may pay for in-home nurse visits and/or physical therapy to help you recuperate from an injury after a fall or to provide strengthening exercises/balancing programs to proactively prevent one, even if you haven’t been admitted to the hospital. Home Care is day-to-day custodial care.
West Central Florida Area Agency on Aging The Elder Helpline provides information for older adults and their caregivers by helping callers make informed decisions about available assistance. It is the starting point in getting connected with programs or services that can meet the needs of the older adult or caregiver. For more information, please contact by phone (800) 96Elder, (800) 963-5337, or www.AgingFlorida.com. The West Central Florida Area Agency on Aging, Inc., is a not-for-profit corporation which administers public funds from

the Florida Department of Elder Affairs as well as private grants and donations for senior services in Hillsborough, Polk, Manatee, Highlands, and Hardee Counties. The Agency, mandated by the Federal Older Americans Act, exists to promote the independence, dignity, health, and wellbeing of our elder citizens; to plan, fund, and administer a coordinated continuum of services; to facilitate and enhance service delivery; and to advocate for the needs of older Americans.
Services usually fall into three categories: homemaking, companionship, and personal care. The latter includes assistance with activities of daily living (ADL’s) like bathing, toileting, eating, dressing, etc. These services are usually provided by a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Home Health Aide. 99% of the time, medical insurance does not pay for these types of services. This is usually an out-of-pocket expense. Cost can range from $15.50 to $20.00 an hour.
See next month’s Caregiver Corner for alternate ways of paying for Home Care. The Caregiver Corner is coordinated by Arthur Moseley. Arthur and his wife Frieda are the owners of the Tampa and Pasco offices of Griswold Home Care, one of the area’s leading providers of non-medical private pay home care services. The caregivers they refer provide companionship, homemaking services, and personal care. Call 813-344-2653 for more information.
Elder Affairs SHINE Program The Florida Department of Elder Affairs, along with the West Central Florida Area Agency on Aging, invites you to join the award-winning SHINE team of volunteers. This program helps elders make informed decisions about Medicare, health insurance, and prescription drug plans. SHINE volunteers provide individual counseling and assistance to elders and their caregivers about Medicare, Medicaid, Medicare plan choices, long-term care planning, and prescription discount
drug programs. Volunteers may also make educational presentations to community groups and participate in local health fairs, senior fairs, and other outreach and educational events. If you would like additional information about this exciting opportunity and would like to become a SHINE volunteer in Hillsborough, Hardee, Highlands, Manatee, and Polk Counties, please call the West Central Florida Area Agency on Aging by phone at 813-740-3888, ext. 5593.
