God’s Plan for America’s Comeback By Dave Meyer, V.P. Joyce Meyer Ministries

See Page 11

Although many people are unaware of it, Satan has a plan for America. He wants us to forget our godly heritage and slowly erase our rich, biblical foundation. We see the signs everywhere, God and prayer have been removed from schools and history books. God has been removed from our government except during times of emergency like September 11. Our Constitution has also been reinterpreted and re-written to change our Founders’ original intent. To take our moral temperature, all you have to do is turn on the television. Our society celebrates doing whatever they think is right, and sin is no longer called sin.

The good news is God also has a plan—and His plan is always greater. What is it? God’s Four-Step Recovery Plan In 2 Chronicles 7:14, the Lord says, “If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.” God gives us four specific things to do: humble, pray, seek, and turn. This is our part of the process. As we do these things, then God will do His part to hear, forgive, and heal. Continued on Page 8

The dictionary defines success as getting or achieving wealth, respect, or fame. Success may also refer to attainment of a higher social status or achievement of a goal. Status implies position or rank obtained when compared to others. It is amazing how many people are driven to obtain success and status without which they are so unhappy. The world’s system then dictates a person’s self-esteem, respect, or happiness by creating value through competition with one another. No wonder the world is so unhappy, always trying to get ahead, comparing each other, judging each other and oftentimes feeling inferior to one another. We see the consequences of this world’s system resulting in a racial divide, civil unrest, and frustration on so many levels. God’s system of worth and value is so much better. Our inherent value to God was so incredible that He sent his only begotten Son to die for our sins that separated us from God and HE PURCHASED US BACK THROUGH HIS

OWN BLOOD. It was the love of God for all of us that provided the basis of our worth! This places us all on the same level. We were ALL valuable to God! We need to receive His sacrifice. In Philippians 2:5-8 (The Message) it says “Think of yourselves the way Christ Jesus thought of himself. He had equal status with God but didn’t think so much of himself that he had to cling to the advantages of that status no matter what. Not at all! Having become human, he stayed human. It was an incredibly humbling process. He didn’t claim special privileges. Instead he lived a selfless, obedient life and then died a selfless, obedient death, the worst kind of death—a crucifixion.” Jesus left for us an example of how we are to follow in his footsteps. He did not cling to the advantages of status when He could have—after all, He was the Son of God! Instead, He set aside those privileges and took on the status of a servant and became the most successful minister of His time and was rewarded a seat at the right hand of His Father. We see another example of one who was ruled by God’s system of status and success in the life of John the Baptist! His disciples came to him actually upset because Jesus was baptizing more people than they were, and they said “Everybody is going to him instead of coming to us.” I love John’s reply!! “No one can receive anything unless God gives it from heaven. I am not

the Messiah, I am only here to prepare the way for Him. Therefore, I am filled with joy at His success, and I must become less.” While we are told to not compare ourselves, nothing should thrill us more than seeing others become successful whether it is in ministry or in the secular world. We should rejoice when one is enlarged in his or her spiritual gifts, has prospered and perhaps advanced on his or her job. Their success does not devalue our worth!! John knew that it was his time to decrease, to humble himself, as his job to prepare the way was nearing the end. Did you know that heart attitude made John successful in the sight of God!! What decisions, feelings, directions for your life would change if you were no longer ruled by the world’s system? Food for thought!! Dr. Dianne Coflin Co-Pastor, River of Life Church Lutz, Florida www.roltampa.org 813-949-9931 We would love to invite you to visit River of Life Church on 410 East Chapman Rd. in Lutz.

Family Times By Kay Dunn

My husband and partner, Mark, had an item on his bucket list checked off on his birthday May 18th. He had 30 minutes of fly time at Tampa North Flight Center in Wesley Chapel. The instructor, Jim McLeod, let Mark operate the control stick on the way to the gulf and back. This is a great gift for anyone who wants to know how it feels to fly a 2 seater airplane. Next I treated him to dinner at Cody’s

Samuel Isabel

Original Roadhouse. Mark ordered the barbecue ribs and I ordered the sirloin bites covered with onions & mushrooms. We did a lot of sharing, both were awesome and with the large servings of both, we had enough for lunch the next day. We had baked potatoes and all you could eat salad in a homemade dressing as sides. WOW! What a fun place to eat. When you go, tell them Kay was bragging on them!!!!

Kay’s Kitchen

This will be the start of sharing my new lifestyle recipes with you in honor of my Daddy, who died in 1990 due to complications of melanoma cancer. He had spent 30 years working as an electrical engineer where a lot of his work was on rooftops. He and I enjoyed all types of food! Now I have been diagnosed with the same type of cancer. Over the last year and a half, I have learned that the very food I was eating was not God’s health care plan! So my cooking has taken a twist. Here’s a favorite way of mine to start:

Scrambled egg omelet with grass-fed beef and lamb crumbles. Cook ground grass-fed beef and ground lamb in a large fry pan. Drain any grease. Add & saute onions, spinach, jalapeno and bell pepper with sliced mushrooms for 1 minute. Sprinkle garlic powder, turmeric, and pink Himalayan salt over the mixture. Pour 4 large eggs (whisked) with a little almond coffee creamer over the mixture. Then, top it off with a little goat cheese to melt on the top. Let it cook on medium low heat for about 5 minutes. I place a lid on the pan to help the liquid settle. I added an avocado and cucumber smoothie with whey protein powder along with a slice of organic tomato, a few organic blackberries, and a toasted slice of 7 grain fiber low carb Sami’s Bakery bread. Enjoy and look for another yummy healthy dish next issue! Kay Dunn, Publisher’s Wife

Our son is the best Daddy ever. Happy Father’s Day, Nick! Here he is with his daughter, Isabel and son Samuel. We look forward to their visit over the 4th of July. We will all be celebrating our nation’s independence at the beach and of course, the Lutz Parade.

My Body is Turning Into A Giant Marshmallow!

Samantha Taylor Pure Health & Fitness Studios I went out to dinner with my dad, who is one of the most amazing people I know. Every time I talk to him, he talks about how he is going to start working out, get serious about his exercise plan, and “really do it this time” (probably mentions it since he knows I’m a Personal Trainer). He has been saying he is going to get fit for many years and it really hit me when I realized on July 6th he turns 68. My dad, 68. Isn’t that bizarre when your parents start to get older? That is only 2 years away from 70! That is what hit me, he’s getting older and he is not doing anything about his fitness. His bloodwork is better than it has ever been, which I am very happy about, yet I am seeing him get “softer” and more out of shape even though thankfully he only has about 20 lbs. to lose. I always saw my dad as Superman and I still do. He was in the Vietnam War, always did physical labor tasks outside and owned his own businesses. And I always saw him with muscles, in good shape, and active which probably helped me with my choice to be a trainer. But for a moment, I looked at my dad without those Superman goggles on and realized that he is getting older, more out of shape, and if he doesn’t do something instead of talk about it, he is going to pay for it big time! I put on my personal trainer hat and expressed my concern for him. I told him how if he didn’t get serious about this, he is only going to get mushier and become like a big marshmallow (I knew could razz him a little bit because my dad has always been a big jokester)! He said, “No, not a marshmallow!”

I said, “Yes, and if you don’t want me to start to calling you Mr. Marshmallow Man, then you had better do something! And if your body turns into mush because you have no more muscles from not exercising, you are going to start losing your independence as you get older.” He exclaimed, “No, not that!” I said, “Yes, do you want to be in a nursing home in 10 years? People changing your diapers?” He was aghast, “NO! I never want to lose my independence!” I said, “Well then, you better get serious because the life that you are living right now with not being fit, your body is not going to be able to support itself as it gets older, and you will not have your independence. You will have to have other people taking care of you. Is that what you want?” I knew it was NOT wanted he wanted because he is a very independent man and his mother is 92 and still lives on her own. He got a more serious look on his face, “No, that is not what I want. Okay, I am serious. Wait ‘till you see me next time!” I said, “Dad, you said that last time, you need a plan, not just talk.” He said, “No, I am really going to do something this time.” So we put a plan together for him. I challenged him to work out at least 2 times a week for a month and then when he did, he got to buy himself a reward. He decided what his reward was; we shook hands on it and went off on our separate ways. I love him so much and am grateful for him, and I don’t want to start seeing his body fall apart because he didn’t take care of it. I encourage you to inspire your family to do the same, and if you are able to share this article with your own father, do so. “I love you, Dad, and want you to live a long, healthy life!” If you want to attend a free seminar at my studio, see my ad in this paper.

Human Trafficking In Tampa Bay Stolen Lives, Stolen Innocence Anne Childers, Staff Writer

Since December 2014, this space has focused on the global tragedy of human trafficking. Between an estimated 20-27 million people— men, women, and children—currently endure exploitation as sex slaves, domestic or agriculture workers, health and beauty technicians, construction workers, restaurant help, and traveling crews. The National Human Trafficking Resource Center (NHTRC) defines human trafficking as modern-day slavery and provides information and education on the website www.traffickingresourcecenter.org. Please take the time to check this site, speak with your groups and organizations, and find a way to educate and inform your circle of friends, family, and neighbors. Human trafficking is big business, ranking just behind drugs and guns as a multimillion dollar enterprise. Trafficking of our fellow human beings is not a distant problem in some third world country. It is here in America, the number one consumer of human trafficking, and here in our hometown of Tampa Bay, ranked #3 in the nation as a trafficking destination. 83% of the victims are American citizens, with an average age of 12. Local law enforcement departments and our Florida State Attorney, Pam Bondi, are making progress in locating and arresting those involved in this brutal exchange of human lives

for money and services. As individuals, we can make a difference, first by spreading awareness and secondly helping to make a difference in the rehabilitation of those rescued. This information has been published before, but until every victim is rescued, it bears repeating. Locally, two women who are making a difference could use your help. Edie Rhea, herself a survivor, has established Healing Root Ministry. To provide the resources needed to offer victims a two year recovery program, Edie estimates the cost at $350,000 annually. Call Edie at 813-458-5970 to schedule training for your church, group, or organization. Natasha Nascimento is the Founder of Redefining Refuge, a safe house for girls and the first of its kind in the state. Call 813-909-0300 to volunteer, offer financial support, schedule a training opportunity, or collect items for the wish list. Pasco FREE (pascoFREE@gmail.com) also has opportunities for volunteers to make a difference. At this time we will stop monthly articles in this space, but we will report on any and all new developments as we become aware of them. Anyone wishing to share or report information with this publication may send an email to edit101@ddpnews.com.

Fifth Third Bank Serves Families in Need Fifth Third Bank employees prepared and served meals to Tampa Bay families in need as well as helped sort and store non-perishable food items collected by Fifth Third as part of its sixth annual “Fifth Third Feeding Families” food drive. Items were collected in all 48 Fifth Third locations in the Tampa Bay area in a month-long food drive that wrapped up on May 3 – Fifth Third Day. Enough food was collected to feed over 5,300 Tampa Bay area families in need and give hope to a community battling hunger. Nearly 50 Fifth Third employees volunteered their time on Saturday, May 2nd at Metropolitan Ministries in downtown Tampa. “We believe that an ongoing investment in our community can make a meaningful im-

pact,” said Brian Lamb, president and CEO of Fifth Third Bank (North Florida). “We’re proud to once again be working with a great organization like Metropolitan Ministries to help families and children in need throughout Tampa Bay.” The collected items will be distributed to people in need in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Polk counties. “The need for food in our community continues to grow, and the donated items will directly help people right here in our own backyards,” said Tim Marks, president and CEO of Metropolitan Ministries. “We are humbled that Fifth Third Bank has once again focused on contributing to our mission to fight hunger and provide hope.”

Garden Connect By Steve & Jeanne Wolfe

First of all, we have had some positive responses to our articles in the Gazette neighborhood newspapers. We appreciate that! This month’s subject is the MORINGA OLEIFERA tree that is becoming very popular in gardening circles. The Moringa tree is grown mainly in tropical and sub-tropical areas and in a protected environment. It will grow in USDA zones 9 and 10. It will tolerate a wide range of soil conditions and it is a sun and heat loving plant but does not tolerate frost. It is mainly grown in Hawaii, India, the Philippines, Africa, Indonesia, Cambodia, Pakistan, and in other areas. One of the many uses of Moringa is for water purification. Some scholars believe that this is the tree that God had Moses use to sweeten the bitter waters at Marah

in Exodus 15. Moringa seed cake is used to filter water using flocculation to produce potable water for animal or human consumption. The tender pods called drumsticks are used in many culinary dishes. The leaves are added to broth for soup. Also, Moringa juice from the leaves mixed with lemonsito juice to make ice candies. Many nutritious recipes can be found at http://miracletrees.org/moringa_recipes.html. The Moringa tree is being used to provide malnutrition relief and is used by many organizations like Tree for Life International, the Christian and Missionary Alliance, and Church World Service to name a few. We found the powder and extract sold at WireGrass Mall Outdoor Organic market that occurs on the first Saturday of the month.

The History of Flag Day

The Fourth of July was traditionally celebrated as America’s birthday, but the idea of an annual day specifically celebrating the Flag is believed to have first originated in 1885. B.J. Cigrand, a schoolteacher, arranged for the pupils in the Fredonia, Wisconsin Public School, District 6, to observe June 14 (the 108th anniversary of the official adoption of the Stars and Stripes) as “Flag Birthday.” In numerous magazines and newspaper articles and public addresses over the following years, Cigrand continued to enthusiastically advocate the observance of June 14 as “Flag Birthday” or “Flag Day.” Following the suggestion of Colonel J. Granville Leach (at the time historian of the Pennsylvania Society of the Sons of the Revolution), the Pennsylvania Society of Colonial Dames of America on April 25, 1893 adopted a resolution requesting the mayor of Philadel-

phia and all others in authority and all private citizens to display the flag on June 14th. Leach went on to recommend that thereafter the day be known as “Flag Day” and on that day, school children be assembled for appropriate exercises, with each child being given a small flag. In 1894, the governor of New York directed that on June 14 the flag be displayed on all public buildings. With B.J. Cigrand and Leroy Van Horn as the moving spirits, the Illinois organization, known as the American Flag Day Association, was organized for the purpose of promoting the holding of Flag Day exercises. On June 14th, 1894, under the auspices of this association, the first general public school children’s celebration of Flag Day in Chicago was held in Douglas, Garfield, Humboldt, Lincoln, and Washington Parks, with more than 300,000 children participating. Inspired by these three decades of state and local celebrations, Flag Day—the anniversary of the Flag Resolution of 1777— was officially established by the Proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson on May 30th, 1916. While Flag Day was celebrated in various communities for years after Wilson’s proclamation, it was not until August 3rd, 1949, that President Truman signed an Act of Congress designating June 14th of each year as National Flag Day. http://www.usflag.org/history/flagday.html

Gulfside Hospice Veteran Program

VFW Post 8154 Zephyrhills donated $500 to support Gulfside Hospice and its We Honor Veterans program. Pictured left to right: Erin Labbe, Special Events Coordinator for Gulfside Hospice; Cliff Standish, Post Commander; Dan Paiz, elected Post Commander; Carla Armstrong, Director of Philanthropy for Gulfside Hospice

Members of the VFW Post 8154 Zephyrhills presented a check of $500 to Gulfside Hospice in support of its We Honor Veterans program. The donation, raised from weekly dinners at the VFW, will go to provide specialized care for veteran patients, patient and community pinning ceremonies, community education about caring for veterans at the end of life, and pairing veteran volunteers with veteran patients.

“One out of every four hospice patients is a veteran,” said Carla Armstrong, Director of Philanthropy for Gulfside Hospice & Pasco Palliative Care. “We truly make it a priority to serve them the best way we can and thank them for their service. It can bring peace of mind just to hear a thank you.” Current Post Commander Cliff Standish and elected Post Commander Dan Paiz presented the check at the Gulfside Center for Hospice Care in Zephyrhills on Tuesday, May 5. “We are just glad we could do it,” said Standish. The VFW Post 8154 Zephyrhills has more than 500 veteran members and works to serve veterans, military families, and the local community. Gulfside Hospice is a Level Four participant in the nationwide We Honor Veterans Program. Gulfside has served more than 370 veterans in the last year alone. Gulfside is working to grow the program in Pasco County by holding pinning ceremonies, honoring each veteran patient with a pin and certificate, and participating in community events centered on veterans.

Percy Boomer, Golf ’s Most Influential Instructor (Part 1)

Rick Bradshaw PGA Professional/GM Aubrey Boomer, younger brother by 13 years and student of Percy’s, was an outstanding golfer and was known in Europe as “the boy who shot 61”, an incredible eleven under par score, during a Ryder Cup match against the Americans. Percy Boomer himself did win 3 tournaments—the Belgian Open in 1923, the Swiss Open in 1924, and the Dutch Open in 1927. However, he found that teaching golf was his calling, and after his death was remembered as the world’s most influential golf instructor in the history of the game. Ben Hogan, a disciple of Boomer’s teaching philosophy, is considered to have influenced the teaching of the golf swing more than any other American-born P.G.A. golf tour professional. Hogan, a winner of 62 P.G.A. tournaments, 9 major championships including the grand slam of golf, The British Open, The Masters, The U.S. Open, and the P.G.A. Championship, however, was ranked second to Percy Boomer on the Golf Illustrated list of most influential golf instructors. The importance of Percy Boomer’s instruction laid the foundation for how P.G.A. golf professionals as well as recreational golfers can study books and videos that have been produced over the past few decades on the most efficient way to swing the golf club. What is remarkable is that Percy Boomer’s instructional wisdom and creativity blossomed without the use of modern-day technology like video replay and computers, which are used today to study the golf swing. The reason for this excellence is that Boomer focused his instruction on what he felt, his students felt, and what Aubrey Boomer, his brother, felt during the golf swing. Aubrey

Boomer, who was an excellent swinger of the golf club, finished second to the infamous American golfer Bobby Jones in the British Open. Bobby Jones, winner of numerous championships in the 1920’s, founded and designed Augusta National Golf Club, which is where the most celebrated golf tournament ever, The Masters, is played every year. Percy centered his teaching on the feeling of producing what he called a centrifugal swing, much the same movements felt by a track and field hammer throw contestant. Boomer’s swing movement focused on the feeling of how a rotary body movement could produce a momentous effortless power effect. Percy believed that focusing on body rotation and an inner opposing force felt in the chest, shoulders, arms, hips, and the legs as they stabilized and controlled the outward centrifugal pulling action of the club head was the secret. By not letting the club head fly out of the hands, a constant and repeating swing arc was an automatic result. Boomer also compared the golf swing to “the drawing of arcs with a pair of compasses” and said “the reason that we cannot be so precise in our stroking as the compass can is that we are supported on two legs instead of one, and we are full of flexions and joints.” To be continued next month.

This honor is bestowed each year to the volunteer who is a shining example for the Ombudsman Program throughout the State. “Our volunteers are the cornerstone of this program, serving as advocates for the long-term care facility residents we assist every day. This population needs these caring individuals to be their voice,” said Leigh Davis, State Ombudsman. “Through her hard work, Joan consistently demonstrates her dedication to the role of ombudsman.” Ms. Rixom joined the program as a volunteer in June 2007 and works overtime to complete her assessments and also mentors fellow volunteers. Joan is well-respected among her peers and brings passion and knowledge to the monthly council meetings.

She serves as the West Central State Council Representative and State Council Vice Chair, and she also volunteers in the Guardian ad Litem Program. All should admire her stamina and commitment to others,” said Lynn Penley, West Central District Ombudsman Manager. The Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program advocates for the health, safety, welfare, and rights of individuals residing in long-term care settings. Ombudsman volunteers work with residents, family members, administrators, and other parties to resolve complaints or issues brought by or on behalf of long-term care residents.

The Tree of Life

Anne Childers, Staff Writer

What if there was a tree whose leaves, branches, and roots provided for the health and nourishment of humans and domestic animals by providing medicinal benefits, soil enrichment, and even bio-fuel for cars and machinery? What if this fast-growing, hardy tree grew naturally in subtropical areas, and what if this amazing tree had ties to Tampa Bay? The publishers of the Dunndeal Gazettes recently learned of the Moringa tree, how it has changed and improved lives around the world, and how research in Tampa has contributed to saving lives in third world countries. USF is currently involved in exciting experiments involving the Moringa tree in the production of bio-fuel, and Morningstar Farms in Dade City is using this multi-purpose tree to educate hungry nations on food

production in order to prevent starvation. Over the next few months, this space will be dedicated to sharing information about the amazing Moringa and how it can be used to improve the quality of life for people everywhere. Stay tuned for some astounding facts and information as we explore all the Moringa tree has to offer mankind. In our world of continual hype about perfect products for everything from weight loss to cleaning supplies, it is easy to be skeptical of anything touted as the perfect natural remedy for nearly everything. The upcoming series on the various species of the Moringa promises facts and information to answer any questions or concerns. For now, please read the review below from the renowned John Hopkins School of Medicine Research on the medical evidence for the Moringa’s nutritional, therapeutic, and prophylactic properties: Moringa Oleifera: “In fact, the nutritional properties of Moringa are now so wellknown that there seems to be little doubt of the substantial health benefit to be realized by consumption of Moringa leaf powder in situations where starvation is imminent. Clearly, much more research is justified, but just as clearly this will be a very fruitful field of endeavor for both basic and applied researchers over the next decade.” Jed W. Fahey, Sc.D.

The Dunndeal Gazettes and their contest got me and my broken foot out of the house last Saturday. John’s Pass Village was crowded with pirates of all ages and types. The Mad Beach Craft Brewing Company were great hosts for our catered meals served on their “patio” on the second floor of the mall at the Pass. Mad Beach is really a fun place for all the family with concerts and games and their craft beer. The event successfully created an upbeat atmosphere. Our family enjoyed the day, so thank God and the Dunndeal Gazettes for enriching our lives.

But until we do our part, God will not do His part. The key word in this entire verse is “then.” It makes it clear that our part must be fulfilled before God’s part can be initiated. Our part involves true humility and repentance. We can pray for restoration. However, restoration can’t come until there is revival. Revival can’t come until there is responsibility, responsibility can’t come until there is repentance, and repentance can’t come until we remember. We must remember who we are, where we come from, and why it’s important to be accountable for what God’s given us through our Founding Fathers. We must discover things like: • How was our government formed? • What price was paid for our liberty, and who paid it? • What role did God play in the lives of our Founding Fathers? • What responsibilities did our Founders give us? The Bible says wisdom comes from two sources: the Word of God and life’s experiences (history). If we choose to forget the past, then we lose the wisdom of the past—wisdom that came at a great price. If we forget, then history will inevitably repeat itself, and we’ll once again pay a tremendous price. God wants to use our nation as a beacon of light to shine brightly for Jesus Christ all around the world.

God’s Plan for America’s Comeback Revival or Rescue? On May 7, millions in America observed the 64th Annual National Day of Prayer. It’s an incredible opportunity to come together and focus our eyes on the true Source of our help. However, as we pray, we have to be willing to do what God shows us. I believe a lot of people simply want God to rescue this nation—to solve our problems without requiring any action on our part. However, revival for America includes taking responsibility to do what God shows us to help preserve what our forefathers obtained. In 1787, as Benjamin Franklin exited the Constitutional Convention, a woman shouted from the crowd, “Sir, what have you given us?” Franklin famously responded, “A republic, ma’am, if you can keep it.” What did he mean? A republic means “rule of law” (our Constitution). This form of government offers the very greatest liberties and freedom—but it also requires the most responsibility, moral virtue, and maintenance to keep it intact. America has gone from a strong, godly nation, ready to fight for our liberties and moral princicples to one that’s complacent, allowing ungodliness to creep in little by little. Evil doesn’t just happen overnight, it happens slowly over time as we fail to fulfill our responsibilities. Not doing what needs to be done in the face of evil encourages its existence and growth. Evil is only denied exis-

tence by wise action, and wise action is our responsibility! As Christians, the choice is up to us. We can either stand up and fight or lay down entirely. But we can’t stay the same and expect the direction of our country to change. Worth Fighting For God is waiting for the body of Christ in America to become a courageous body—a group who will stand up and do what He is asking us to do. This is the true meaning of a “patriot.” It involves becoming educated about our past, then taking action for our future. The Lord wants to use our nation, our resources, and our people to once again become a beacon of light to shine brightly for Jesus Christ all around the world. On May 26, Memorial Day, we celebrated those who have allowed our light to shine in years past, an honor all of the servicemen

and women who fought for this nation and made the ultimate sacrifice. Today, we continue the fight. However, it’s a battle against misinformation, passivity, and what I refer to as “historical amnesia.” These battles are just as important as any we’ve ever fought. Our generation has the responsibility to protect the precious liberties that brave men and women have sacrificed to protect. Friends, with your help, we can protect them—God has given us the plan. One by one, we can do our part to take a stand for America. As we are faithful to do what we can do, the Lord will be faithful to do what we can’t, and bring healing to our land. joycemeyer.org • (800) 727-9673 The Future of America - Dave Meyer h t t p s : / / w w w. y o u t u b e . c o m / watch?v=fWOiGY-lkbo

The benefits to having quality windows are endless. Windows maintain the temperature in your home, keeping the cold out in the winter and the heat out in the summer. It is important to have well sealed, efficient, and double-paned glass windows custom made for your home. New windows offer countless benefits like enhanced safety, security, and overall health of your home; new windows will increase the value of the home and assist in obtaining a higher resale value, which is critical in today’s real estate market. Let’s look at the great reasons that you may wish to consider when upgrading the windows in your home. Energy Efficient Windows: Savings 1. Rebates from the government and utility companies are given for new, energy-efficient windows. Rebates are often given for hom-

10 Reasons to Replace Your Windows

eowners that purchase new energy-efficient windows. For more information, you can contact your local energy company or tax advisor to obtain specific details on these incentives. 2. Utility bills become less expensive with premium quality windows. Quality windows ensure that the home uses less energy to heat or cool the home. This commonly results in a noticeable reduction in your monthly utility bills. Imagine the money that will be saved each month and at the end of the year! When you add up the savings, the new windows will essentially pay for themselves. 3. Cracked and broken windows are dangerous. The windows become even more dangerous once cold arrives, as the glass becomes brittle and cold. If you have children in the home, they are in great danger if they play or sleep in a room with old windows. Further concerns are

the drafts that old windows cause. 4. Environmentally friendly. Windows that are energy-efficient use electricity or gas. Using less energy decreases greenhouse gases emitted into the environment. 5. Dangerous materials. Old windows may contain lead paint, which is dangerous for children and adults alike. Upgrading not only reduces energy bills and increases the aesthetics of a home, but it may also protect your health. Replace Windows vs. Old Windows 6. Inefficient windows leak. Leaking windows allow water to come into the home, both in front and behind the walls. Mold is a dangerous byproduct of moisture entering the home, and it can be detrimental to your family’s health and the resale value of your home. 7. Single-paned. Old windows are commonly single-paned. Double-paned energy-

efficient windows lock out more moisture and cold/heat than old, single-paned windows. 8. Old sealing. Old sealing could let in moisture and cause additional damage to the inside of your home’s structure, which could cause mold. Mold spoors get in the air and can spread quickly throughout your entire home. 9. Aesthetically pleasing. Whether you are renovating or painting the outside of your home, windows instantly perk up the aesthetics of your house. Quality Vinyl Windows 10. Never a better time to buy. Reduce energy; increase the value of your home, and much more. Please call EcoView today for a free in-home consultation and benefit from our factory direct pricing at 813-885-4837.

While tile stands up well to moisture and traffic, it is usually the grout that shows the first signs of wear and discoloration. “Instead of re-grouting your tile over and over again to maintain its original color, allow us to color seal it. We provide our customers with amazing results, superior service, and a lifetime guarantee,” says Tim. In addition to excellent tile and grout restoration, Ultimate Tile and Grout also cleans other hard surfaces such as driveways, sidewalks, patios, pool decks, and soft surfaces like carpet and upholstery. Ultimate Tile and Grout even offers weekend service and serves both residential and commercial clients. Check the website at www.ultimatetileandgrout.com and call 813-961-8453 for a complimentary, no obligation quote on all your surface cleaning needs—you will never need to make another call!
