THE TOWNSPEOPLE

Bethel Church presents “The Gospel According to Scrooge” rector Tracy Nation. “The Gospel According to Scrooge is Bethel’s way of sharing the Christian message that Jesus is ‘. . . the way, the truth and the life’ - Romans 14:6. It’s a fun, but meaningful way to begin the Christmas season.”

Bethel Church is located at 1726 L Avenue near the intersection of R18 and E57.

Cast and crew members, all from Bethel Church in rural Boone County, are preparing their 15th production of The Gospel According to Scrooge.

This year’s presentation will be Friday and Saturday, Dec. 6 and 7 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 8 at 2 p.m. Seating will begin one hour before each performance and a free-will offering will be taken.

The church has been presenting “Scrooge” since 1983.

“Scrooge” is a modern-day musical version based on Charles Dickens’ book “A Christmas Carol” which the author James P. Schumacher has

rewritten with a Christian theme.

The church sanctuary and foyer are transformed into an old English village with a stage backdrop, windows decorated as storefronts and hanging shingles to depict various businesses of the era. Players are fully costumed in dress of the late 1800s and the musical numbers are choreographed and sung to taped background accompaniment.

“The production has many serious moments, with a serious message to convey, though it is generally light-hearted and entertaining.,” says di-

4-H adult volunteers honored at Awards Day

A holly, jolly Christmas in Ogden

Volunteers are the backbone of the Boone County 4-H program. Adult 4-H volunteers were recognized at 4-H Awards Day held on Sunday, November 10 at the Community Building at the Boone County Fairgrounds.

Alumni Award Kim Rhodes of Ogden was presented the 4-H Alumni Award. Kim is a Boone County 4-H Alumni of the Westside Hustlers 4-H Club and is a dedicated 4-H volunteer. After graduating from Iowa State University with a degree in microbiology she began volunteering as a project leader for the Westside Hustlers and held a position on the Poultry Committee.

While on that committee, Kim helped organize the poultry/rabbit FSQA, pullorum testing and the poultry show at the Boone County Fair. Rhodes is a very passionate person, loving to share what she knows with others.

In 2012, her father and her started the Poultry Club to share their passion for poultry with youth in 4-H. Kim is currently the secretary of the Boone County 4-H Youth Committee which oversees the 4-H program in Boone County.

Wade Sundell voted “Athlete of the Year”

Our Angels at the Manor

Friend of 4-H The Friend of 4-H Award was presented to Kris Goos of Boone. Kris has spent many years training her dogs and has been invited to judge dog agility trials nationwide. Boone County is very fortunate to have her as a dog agility instructor for the 4-H program. In 2012, Kris began teaching dog agility to 4-Hers in Boone County with the goal of sharing her knowledge and passion. She encourages the kids to keep an open mind when training their dogs, and above all, enjoy the bonding time with their 4-legged friends. They now call their group the Canines and Clovers 4-H Agility group and enjoyed hosting the first ever all 4-H Agility Trial for Iowa this summer. Kris is making a difference in the lives of both 4-Her’s and dogs as she teaches, coaches and develops pride and confidence.

Meritorious Service to 4-H The Meritorious Service to 4-H Award was presented to Boone Bank & Trust. For 65 years, Boone Bank & Trust has sponsored the Outstanding 4-H Member awards which recognize the hard work of 4-Hers. The first documented Outstanding Member award was given out in 1948 to two 4-H’ers for outstanding records and was sponsored by the then named, Boone State Bank & Trust Company. Since then the Outstanding member awards have expanded into the current three categories and are given out to 20 members annually. They also support 4-H by sponsoring the Small Animal Showmanship Awards, given to nine members annually, during the Boone County Fair. Boone County is fortunate to have a business so willing to support its youth.

Fran Thompson Memorial Outstanding Leader Award A highlight of the 4-H Awards Day program is the presentation of the Fran Thompson Memorial Outstanding Leader Award. This year’s recipient was Mari Lynn Heineman of Ogden. Mari Lynn is a co-organizational leader of the Westside Hustlers since 2003. Through her dedication and commitment, this club has grown to 49 members. Mari Lynn also served on the Boone County 4-H Youth Committee from 2006-2009. Beyond being a 4-H leader, she serves on the preschool board, the Ogden Boosters as well as many church committees. Mari Lynn and her husband Paul have three sons: Andrew, Marcus and Grant.

Award of the Clover During the awards ceremony Mary Clancy, Boone County Extension Program Coordinator, presented Award of the Clover pins to 13 4-H volunteers. A 40-year five point diamond pin was awarded to Deb Owens of Luther. Two 25-year emerald pins were awarded to Kim Bengtson and Tom Kauffman, both of Boxholm. A 20-year diamond pin was awarded to Dennis Lynch of Ames. A 10-year gold pin was awarded to Chris Swanson of Madrid. Five-year silver pins were awarded to Jess Haht, Jeremiah Haub, Kacy and Suzan Frantum and Kim Rhodes of Ogden, Kevin Kordick, Bill Martin and of Boone, Mia Glasgow of Woodward.

During the Awards Day program, members of the Boone County 4-H Youth Committee presented 4-H member awards as well and recognized 4-H club leaders. Thirty one youth were installed as members of the 2013 - 2014 County 4-H Council.

Rodeo Fame magazine voted saddle bronc rider Wade Sundell as “Athlete of the Year.” The magazine will be featuring the Boxholm native in its next issue.

Sundell is making a return trip to the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas, Thursday through Saturday, Dec. 5-14, where he placed first in two events last year.

The event matches top cowboys with the toughest and fastest livestock in a head-to-head competition to crown the PRCA World Champions.

Each of the 10 rounds will be aired on the Great American Country channel. For a complete schedule of air times, go to the Great American Country website at www. gactv.com

Swede Valley Christmas concert The Ames Chamber Artists will present a concert of Christmas music entitled “Northern Lights” Saturday, Dec. 7 at 7 p.m. at Swede Valley Lutheran Church.

The choral group is directed by Dr. James Rodde and accompanied

by David Howell.

Tickets are not needed for this concert, however, a free will offering will be taken.

Everyone is invited to attend, hear wonderful music and see the newly-refurbished church.

Residents in nursing homes are often the forgotten ones during the busy holiday season. But for Ogden Manor’s Life Enrichment Coordinator Rose Fowler, they are first and foremost on her mind and she wants to make sure each one is remembered this holiday season.

“I love to see the joy on their faces when they have a gift under the tree,” she says. “I want to make sure everyone has a gift. Not every family has the means to get their loved ones something for Christmas, and some here have no family.”

So Fowler has put up an Angel Tree. She is encouraging people to stop in and choose an angel tag.

She asks that gifts be returned by Wednesday, Dec. 18.

Little CeJay Jones of Ogden getting an early start on his bullriding career.

-Photo provided

Never too young to ride Tuff-N-Nuff Miniature Rodeo Association is heading to the big show and taking their miniature bulls and cowboys along for the ride.

Eight Junior and eight Pee-Wee TMRA cowboys are getting the chance of a lifetime and Ogden’s own CeJay Jones is among them. CeJay who is six and is in Kindergarten this year, just started riding bulls last summer. He is the son of Chris and Lanna Jones, and brother to Dakota and Dawson.

The Hopkins family from Dayton (Johnny, Peggy and Levi), are the proud owners of TMRA. They work hard to give these little guys and gals the chance to ride bulls just like the pros do. They have been asked to travel out to the Denver National Western Livestock show with their bulls and cowboys to participate in the rodeo events. They will be featured in the rodeos Saturday, Jan. 11 and the 2013 Champions of TMRA will be featured in the rodeo Monday, Jan. 13.

When asked what this means to them Johnny replied, “When we took the event in Denver it was on one term. I told them if we come out we bring our own riders. They deserve to be there just as much as us. They agreed to it so Denver here we come. This is one of the World’s largest stock shows if not the largest and our kids get to take part in it. I’m excited. It’s not just getting our bulls in front of large crowds - it’s getting our kids in front of them, too. That means a lot to us because it’s those kids and their families who make this all work.”

The church of Christ Who are these people?

What is the sin unto death, sometimes referred to as “the unforgivable sin”?

In 1 John 5:16 we read, “If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.” The ASV translates this as: “There is a sin unto death: not concerning this do I say that he should make request.”

One of the most interesting things about the Greek language is its lack of the indefinite article. In English, the indefinite article is the word “a” or “an.” When an indefinite article is expected, the syntax of the Greek sentence just gives the noun itself without the definite article. It is up to the translator to either supply the indefinite article or to leave it out depending upon the context. In this particular context, it makes better sense to leave the definite article out so the sentence would read, “There is sin unto death.” This removes the idea that there is one specific sin that leads to death. In other words, there is no specific sin unto death, but it is a case where someone commits sin and that sin leads to death. John uses the Greek word “PROS” in this verse, which is translated “unto” in the KJV. A better translation for this preposition would be “toward”, so the statement becomes clearer, “There is sin toward death.” Ultimately, if one continues in one’s sin, eventually that will lead to spiritual death. What is such a situation?

We must note that John is speaking to those who are Christians. He says, “If any man see his brother sin…” What kind of sin could a Christian commit that would lead to death? James says in James 1:14-15 “But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” According to James, any temptation can lead to sin and death. So, how do we avoid sinning toward death? John gives the answer in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

The sin that leads toward death is the un-repented and un-confessed sin. This follows naturally with the next thought, the sin that is not toward death. That is the sin of which one has repented and confessed. For this sin, we can pray for our brethren that they will repent and receive forgiveness.

Bursitis - Everybody’s Problem Including Your Chiropractor

by Dr. Rick Elbert, Ogden Doctor of Chiropractic

Although bursitis is often referred to as “housemaid’s knee,” “a game arm,” or “a working man’s disorder,” it can strike anyone at any time, usually beginning in the thirties or forties.

A sudden shift in position, a fall, or a gradual postural change can displace the muscles or bones of the affected area. When this happens nerve impulses cannot reach the bursa, a small fluid-filled sac which cushions and lubricates the bones and muscles. The fluid dries up and becomes gritty. The cushioning effect is gone, and the affected area becomes irritated and inflamed.

Bursitis may first appear as only a minor soreness or recurring pain in the elbow, knee or most often in the shoulder. During this time, heat, cold or aspirin may bring temporary relief. But recurring twinges of pain in the shoulder are not healthy signs. They are Mother Nature’s warning that serious trouble is on its way.

If left untreated, the condition will steadily worsen until sharp, excruciating agony brings its crippling effect. Normal movement is prevented and the greatest athletes

are sidelined while the housewife and working man find it difficult if not impossible to perform their daily tasks. Because of the very nature of bursitis, the Doctor of Chiropractic is thought to be well suited to treat it. He knows that lasting relief is impossible until the

Dr. Rick Elbert

cause of the trouble is eliminated.

By putting the muscles and bones of the affected area back into alignment, he can pave the way for the nerve impulses to flow again. When this happens, the bursa can again act as a cushion and lubricant and body joints will provide the freedom of movement necessary to everyday living.
