Sapphire Studios danced to a jingling beat, while Old Skool, the Smith Family Band and Will Way provided a variety of Christmas favorites.New this year the Chamber organized a “Holiday Market” where local crafters and vendors had an opportunity to sell their holiday gift items. Approximately, twenty vendors participated and added to the festive atmosphere. The Chamber wants to encourage everyone to Shop local during this holiday season. The Annual Lighting of the Liberty Christmas Tree went beautifully! The Tree lights will remain on during the evening hours until midnight each night through the Christmas season. The highlight of the festival was seeing the excitement in the eyes of the children who won one of four bicycles that were raffled off.

Great Updates - Even Better Food If you have not stopped into Kwik Stop #3 located at 204 N Greensboro St in Liberty you need to. The other day I stopped in after seeing a new face lift on the outside. The store is so cleaned and well stocked. They now carry Gold Peak Coffee, pretty good I may say. But they offer everything from bait to LP gas tank. Inside is every staple you could ask for and at pretty good prices. The real gem is the short order grill. They have numerous specials from breakfast starting at 6am and then lunch specials from 11am to 3pm.

Christmas Is About Giving By Warren Dixon
The windshield wipers slopped back and forth, swish, clump, swish, clump. The old man wondered why he had failed to change them when he had the chance. Why, he thought, did the one on the driver’s side always wear out first. Part of it had peeled almost all the way off, flopping to and fro in the rain. His wife sat huddled beside him, wrapped in a woolen brown coat. Some of the buttons were gone on the coat but, in the dark, the moth holes didn’t show. She wondered why the old man had purchased a car without a heater but knew the answer almost before the thought entered her mind. Money, it was always about money. That was the reason the windshield wipers were worn out, causing her husband to lean forward to see through the rain as he drove home that night. The grandson in the back seat watched out the fogged back window into the darkness, out across the rain-soaked fields, wondering if Santa Claus would bring anything this year. Soon the boy saw the Pittsboro city limits sign and felt the bump of the railroad tracks. In the glare of the headlights he could make out the form of a soldier standing beside the road, duffle bag by his side, his right arm extended in the rain. The old man pulled the ’39 Ford over. He had never failed to pick up a hitchhiking soldier. He cut off the car and hobbled out into the rain. “Put your bag in here,” he said, opening the trunk. He noticed that the soldier was wearing a round parachute patch on his cap. “Thank you, thank you,” the soldier said as he crawled into the back seat beside the boy. “I thought I was going to have to spend the night here.” “It’s a bad night to be out,” the woman said looking back at the soldier. “Where you going?” “Tick Creek,” he replied. The old man winced. “But any night’s a good night, ma’am. I’m just thankful to be going home this Christmas. Where I’ve been makes you appreciate…well, it’s just good to be alive.” “Where have you been?” the boy asked. “A place called Bastogne,” said the soldier. “That’s where I spent last Christmas. You see life differently when you’ve been to a place like that.” “John was in the first war,” said the old woman. “Then he knows,” said the soldier. The four drove on down Highway 64 in silence for awhile, only the sound of the windshield wipers breaking the quiet. Finally, the soldier spoke up. “What’s Santa Claus bringing you?” he asked the boy. “Fruits and nuts and candies?” A shotgun? Do you hunt?” “Maybe some new overalls,” replied the boy, staring at the floorboard. “Santa Claus don’t bring us much,” said the old man. “Time’s is hard.” “I got my folks some Christmas presents,” said the soldier. “I wanted to get my girl a ring. We’re getting married as soon as I get home. But I couldn’t afford a ring so I got her a silk scarf in France. But I don’t reckon a ring makes a marriage,” he added sheepishly. The woman twisted the wide, gold wedding band on her finger. It didn’t fit quite as well as it used to. “I bet they don’t care what you got them,” said the woman. “You’re enough present for them.” The soldier smiled. The old man pulled the car into a Gulf service station. “Need some gas,” he said, secretly hoping the soldier would offer to pay. Instead, the soldier got out of the car and went inside. “I can walk home from here,” he said when he returned. “I just live down Rives Chapel Road.” “I’ll take you home,” said the old man. “I wouldn’t put you out in the rain.” He turned the car off 64 onto a narrow, muddy road. The Ford rocked and bumped and sloshed water high into the air and over the windshield. Soon the headlights landed on a mailbox in the distance. “That’s my driveway,” the soldier said excitedly. “That’s where I live.” The old man slowed the car. “You’ll have to let me out here,” said the soldier. ‘You can’t drive a car down there. It’s just an old wagon path.” He opened the door and rain blew into the car. “Give me the keys,” he told the old man. “No use for you to get wet again.” The man handed him the keys. The soldier stepped out into the dark and the car lifted slightly when he opened the trunk. After awhile, he returned, his duffle bag on his shoulder. “Thank you again,” he said, shaking the old man’s hand, then the boy’s. “God bless you.” Then he braced himself against the storm and started down the path. “Wait,” the old woman said, opening her door. She stepped out into the mud and gave the soldier a hug. He thought he felt her hand go into his pocket. What kind of people are these, he thought. Is she trying to pick my pocket? As he rounded the curve past the cedar trees he reached into his coat pocket and felt something round. Pulling it out he realized it was a wide, gold wedding band. The old man turned the car in the road and headed back toward Highway 64, then soon pulled to a stop. “That soldier spent a lot of time in the trunk,” he grumbled to his wife. “I hope he didn’t steal my jack.” He got out of the car and opened the trunk. There beside the spare tire was a German shotgun lying on top of a long, blue woman’s wool coat and a French silk scarf. Beside them was a brand new pair of windshield wipers.

A New Gift Idea For Any Occasion This year I was amazed with a gift I received for my birthday. That gift would be a birthday gift delivered to me, but it was not flowers, it was not balloons, it was not a cake, it was not a present, it was a pizza. A personalized pizza with the phrase “Happy B-Day Kevin” How cool was that an unique. Marias Famous Subs & Pizza located on 537 S Greensboro St in Liberty came up with a new idea that I think is going to catch on. For just a few extra dollars he will special your pizza with a message and then off it goes to be delivered to your table or your address. What a cool surprise to get. If you book a party in the restaurant and if its a large party, you can have this specialized pizza for free. So give them a call at 336-622-2000.

Which Journey AreBy:You On? Andy Clapp As the holiday season has arrived, we set out on various journeys during the season. There is the rush on Thanksgiving to see friends and family for a day of recollection and giving thanks. From there, the list of comings and goings expands, some extending beyond the 25th of December. We travel to see. We journey to be a part of something special. We are in constant motion during the season, trying to capture something larger than we are and to make the memories that will last. The Wise Men had patiently watched the sky for the star to appear. A darkened sky was illuminated by a star so magnificent that they knew the day had come. This journey would be over six hundred miles. The dangers of the journey were plentiful as they would have to navigate rugged terrain and dangerous areas, notorious for thieves and nefarious types. Such an undertaking would be strenuous on the Wise Men physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. The threat of death was real. The likelihood far greater than if they remained at home. So why did they go? The desire to see the Son of God was too great within them. Sitting at home meant a void would still exist in their lives. They could find Him, if they were willing to lay aside their lives and follow where God was leading them. As they questioned to His whereabouts, they asked, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.” (Matthew 2:2 HCSB) A star was their guide. Seeing Jesus would be the gift. Worshipping Him would be their reaction. The Bible promises that the journey to find the Lord will never end up empty. Rather than being a random pursuit, such a journey has a promised result. Scripture declares, “Keep asking, and it will be given to you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7 HCSB) In Jeremiah, we read again, “You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.” (Jeremiah 29:13 HCSB) What journey are you on in life? Have you found what you are looking or does everything seem to create more emptiness? For the Wise Men, they found themselves at the house of Mary and Joseph, in the very presence of Jesus. The angels would guide them home a difference route, this journey becoming an expedition of a lifetime as God’s hand was evident from its inception to its conclusion. Such a journey awaits us in this Christmas season and beyond. The wisest of humanity set out to see a Savior and Scripture says that the result is being in the presence of the Lord at the end of such an endeavor. Merry Christmas! Christ has come! Now is the time to begin our quest to see Him.

A grand marshal is an honorary title given to an individual or group by the organizing committee of a periodic parade event. Today my family will be the grand marshal of the Liberty Christmas Parade in honor of Terry W. Smith, my stepdad who was KILLED horrifically in a tragic accident. I must say what an honor this is...as most of you know...Terry was an amazing, selfless, hardworking, caring, funny, and die hard Tarheel person! Most of you do not even know that he was my stepdad because he took the place so well of my own dead-beat junkie father. I am not having a pity party...I have made peace with God about these things but I say all that to say this as we go into the Christmas season: Spend time with your loved ones...my fondest memories involve just sitting around the stove , in the garden, or in the tobacco barn eating, laughing, and talking about God and life....pay attention on the road (get off your phones!) not only are you taking a chance at losing your life...but somebody else's too!!!! Think about what you are doing and how it can effect someone else's life... stop being selfish! Addicts you are missing out on your children's lives!!!! Children need their Mommy's and Daddy's...that is how God intended family to be! They can not only miss out on you being there but it can cause them to have so many other psychological and social problems later in life...it can even mess up their own marriages, friendships and relationships down the line! Most of all: GOD IS OUR FATHER! He loves us more than anyone...if you begin a relationship with HIM you will thirst no more!!! You can never feel lonely...because you are never alone! He is always there and His LOVE can quench any need, feeling, or satisfaction you will ever search for or find. Give your life and heart to Jesus this Christmas...no turning back! Happy December and Merry Christmas! Selah! By Tabitha Schenkel

Local Business Receives Honors August 1, 2017 J.D. Power awarded Loflin Funeral Home in Liberty, North Carolina “Top Funeral Home Location in Customer Service”. They were recognized as the Leader for Service Excellence in the Middle South Division with Dignity Memorial®. Research was conducted by J.D. Power through customer satisfaction surveys and the award was based on performance throughout the 2016 calendar year. Greg Truex, Senior Director with J.D. Power wrote “As you know, this recognition is based on feedback from your most important judge – the communities that you have been privileged to serve. This strong performance is most certainly the result of strong people with a keen focus on customer satisfaction.” Through the decades, Loflin Funeral Home has been operated by strong members of the Liberty community. Tyson Nixon has been the manager of Loflin Funeral Home since 2007. During that time, they have continuously served the community through their values of integrity, respect, service excellence and enduring relationships. Nevertheless, the entire staff is the reason behind these accomplishments. Although a small group of eleven, they are able to work as a team to meet each family’s unique needs. Each individual at Loflin Funeral Home has a genuine concern and warmheartedness for the families they serve. The unity of the staff has been imperative in setting them apart. During the loss of a loved one, it is difficult to know which way to turn; yet, it is comforting beyond words to know the knowledge and guidance that Loflin Funeral Home offers to the Liberty community.

“I would like to share that , Angie with Maid For You, has been a true blessing for me. She has worked out a schedule that fits my life on keeping my home cleaned. Each time she does a little extra. It is so nice to walk into my house after a long work day and smell the freshness and see everything sparkling clean and in order. I would truly recommend you contacting her for a quote. The initial cleaning she did to get house ready for monthly cleaning was overwhelming. The great thing is I have been able to hire her for extra work as needed for cleaning certain areas or getting ready for a birthday party. You will not go wrong with her detail and pricing.” - Kevin Bowman with Liberty Leader Newspaper

The Rose Garden Club
Keep your eyes on the five “Welcome to Liberty “signs. The ladies of the Rose Garden Club have been busy cleaning up and preparing the planters around the base of the signs for new soil, plants and mulch. Each sign planter will have different native plants, wildflowers, pollinator plants plus evergreens for year-round color. This will be an ongoing maintenance project for the Club. Our goal is to have the planters finished in time to greet visitors coming in for the Antiques Festival. In addition to the new plantings the Club will have five new signs installed at the base of the large Liberty sign with the Garden Club logo and year established. The new signage in a smaller version will be installed at each of the projects around town that are taken care of by the club. As members of the National Garden Clubs and The Garden Club of North Carolina we will be applying for the -Roadside Award offered by the National Garden Club. This award has a monetary value for the Club that would help enable us to sustain our project. We would especially like to thank t h e R a n d o l p h C o u n t y To u r i s m Development Authority- for approving our Grant applications to make funds available for this landscaping project and the new signage. Gilmore Plant and Bulb will be providing the plant material and has given recommendations as to what to plant in our planters. New members are always welcome, our meetings are held the second Tuesday of the month September through May at 6:30 pm. Each meeting is held at a different location with programs and guest speakers. If you love gardening come join us.

Lions Club Makes Impacts
Over the past several years, six Grays Chapel Lions Club Members have built handicapped ramps for needy people in our community and surrounding towns. They have built ramps in Liberty, Staley, Ramseur, Grays Chapel, Asheboro and Greensboro. Lion Dove Coble taught carpentry for twenty five years at Eastern Randolph High School in Ramseur. With his ability in building, he has led the group of other inexperienced workers. The Lions involved are Glen Coley, Terry Brown, Charlie Baker, Dove Coble, Gary Davis and Bill Heileg. During the month of October, the group has built two ramps, one for an eleven year old boy with a degenerative muscle diseases. The other ramp was for a man with limited mobility. In total, the group has built thirty four ramps in total. Below are pictures of the last two ramps built in October. If you see a Lions Club member tell them you appreciate their work. Even better if you would like to become a member of the group even better. You can reach Gary Davis at Dixie Equipment in Liberty at 336-622-4202.

Last Minute Holiday Gift Ideas (StatePoint) Holiday shopping can be a source of stress for anyone, but particularly for procrastinators. Need some last-minute gift ideas? Think about readily accessible, yet thoughtful items that don’t require a lengthy shipping process. Let these five ideas help solve your eleventh-hour gift-giving woes. 1. DIY-It. DIY gifts can be heartfelt, and many items can be made in a pinch. Bake a tray of Christmas cookies and tie them up with a bow; make seasonally scented homemade candles; or knit a scarf. The possibilities for crafty folks are endless. 2. Get Accessorized. Don’t get stumped. Consider a classic fashion accessory, such as a Casio Vintage Watch, which can be found in many national retailers, in a range of affordable prices. Functional and fashionable, these water-resistant timepieces that feature both an alarm and stopwatch will complement an array of style preferences. 3. Head to the Box Office. Quickly check the schedule of your gift recipient’s favorite band, team or theater company for tickets to an experience, such as a musical, concert or game. This thoughtful gift can be purchased and received in an instant, thanks to e-ticketing. 4. Pamper Them. The holidays are stressful. Help your loved ones unwind during a busy time of year. Consider a gift certificate for a spa or beauty treatment somewhere local to your recipient. The gift can be enjoyed exactly when it’s needed most. 5. Let Them Pick. When you’re really in a pinch and you’ve waited until the last minute, don’t stress. A gift card can be a great way to show you thought of someone, without having to spend too much time or energy in search of the perfect item.

"The Pastor's Porch"
with Pastor Don Hey guys, Pastor Don here, sitting on the front porch looking at the Christmas lights and thinking about the reason for the season, Jesus! Today I have some company on the porch, my lovely wife Tabitha. As we sit here looking at the lights, thinking about the birth of our Savior Jesus, we are also conversating with one another and our God above about the good and bad of this season. My wife and I both can identify with this very well. In our lives we have experienced both good and bad Christmas seasons, depending on what was going on in our lives at the time. This Christmas being a mixture of both, as our personal lives are extremely blessed, this Christmas will be the first Christmas without my father in law, my wife's step daddy, Terry Smith. Someone we loved dearly that was lost in a tragic accident this last year. As we talk about this we realize that even though we are celebrating a wonderful thing, which is the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ into this world, our personal lives can be in a very broken place, and while others may be experiencing alot of joy and happiness in this season with gifts, families, and festivities we can be feeling exactly the opposite. Some of us can be feeling very alone and lost. We can be feeling sad and hopeless. We can be feeling like this life has dealt us a losing hand and that the blessings and favor that others are experiencing are not in the cards for us. But as we talk about this, we both smile at one another cause we know that this is not true. Cause no matter what is going on in our lives, every one of us has something to grab hold of this Christmas season. That IS the birth and celebration of the greatest gift giver ever given, Jesus Christ! No matter the circumstances or situations of your life at this moment, the birth and eventual death of Jesus Christ allows us to look forward to the greatest thing we can possess: Eternal life with God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and all our loved ones that accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, in a place better than DisneyLand! Revelation 21:4 says "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, no more sorrow, no more crying, no more pain. All these things are gone forever." The promises of God through His son Jesus Christ can get us through any season! In this season of celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, no matter what is going on, hold onto this truth, and the Love of God! Merry Christmas,
Love Pastor Don & Tabitha
