County Discusses Comfort House, Delinquent Taxes By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
HUNTINGTON - Commissioners attempted to shed light on how they will support the Comfort House and the delinquent tax collection contract renewal. First, Jo Fannin, executive director of the Comfort House approached county leaders during the Aug. 22 commission meeting. Because of discrepancies in the organization's budget requests, commissioners were reluctant to approve its $25,000 request during the July 25 meeting. Last year, Comfort House
was given $15,000, according to financial records. "I challenge anyone to take care of 16 to 1,800 people a year on $250,000," Fannin said. Comfort House uses the help of 25 volunteers to accomplish its mission of serving patients and families. "I certainly appreciate the work you all have done in the past year," Commissioner Bob Bailey said. "I will support you on my own if I have to." Commissioner President Nancy Cartmill responded. "I think we're all supportive of the Comfort House - the problem is how the Senior Levy is worded, and we have to look at
how we give money to make sure how it fits into what we have," she said. "We're looking into how we can justify spending the money - how it fits into what the law says and what the levy says." The commissioner continued, "We're in between a rock and a hard place, and we got to make sure we spend taxpayer money how it's supposed to be spent." Fannin responded back to the commission. She spoke with emotion and conviction. "The senior community will greatly be hurt - it's important we protect their wellbeing and emotional heart," said Fannin. The wording of the Comfort House' s original request was un-
clear to commissioners. Fannin clarified the issue during the Thursday meeting. The commission took no action. Commissioners plan to further review the requests. Toward the end of the meeting's agenda, the commission approached the issue of renewing its contract for delinquent tax collection. Commissioners opted for an executive session. "I will have some things on the record for this," said Bailey. Upon returning to regular session, the commissioner spoke about the problems related to Tax Collection Representative Attorney David Tyson.
"His contract plainly states that every quarter we will receive a statement...and he's also not bonded - under state code, he needs to be bonded," Bailey said. Under Tyson's direction, the county has filed $720,000 in lawsuits, according to courthouse records. "From reports, I see you're doing your job," Cartmill said. Tyson responded to Bailey, "We'll get the quarterly reports." Commissioners Cartmill and Anne Yon approved the contract renewal. Bailey did not. The next Cabell County Commission meeting is 10 a.m. Thursday Sept. 12.

“APPRECIATION OF LIFE” Thought for the week: Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. Hebrews 12: 28 (KJV) We take life for granted, getting up each morning, doing our daily routine, often, not stopping to thank God for our heart that beats, and eyes to see. Then, you realize how precious it is when you lose someone. My sister passed last week, and she left such a tribute to her Christian life, it was noted she was a Christian and proud of it since the age 14. She attended church for 72 years faithfully singing in the choir. She was a happy person because her trust was in God. Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read. Although Alzheimer's disease robbed her life of a few years, she continued on. Chances are you know someone with this disease. It is pre-
dicted that by 2050, 1 in 85 people will have this no-cure disease. In 2006 - 26 million people suffered worldwide. The risk factor is after age 65, this doubles every 5 years after. The cells in the brain become tangled with plaque causing the thinking process to not function normal. Research shows risk increases if one or more family member had it also. Psalm 37:4 - Delight thyself also in the Lord and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Our daily lives become what we want them to be, which in turn makes us happy or sad. With a prayer and trust, we can be in God's grace. I was reading recently my ancestral history, how the names had been repeatedly handed down thru the generations, and I wondered –surely, our personalities are generated also, maybe you are a scoundrel like your g, g, g, great uncle John, or maybe you acquired the genes of quiet, gentle hearted Aunt Lucy, who lived her life two hun-
The Cabell Standard dred years ago. We are today, in God's sight, one individual, living our life span, in this time frame... Enjoy life - make the most of each day and always praise the Creator who gave you life. You only pass thru ONCE! “Sir; my concern is not whether God is on our side, my greatest concern is to be on Gods side, for God is always right” Abraham Lincoln Some quotes on life; "VISION" by Bob Stoss - Walk daily with God and capture His vision for your life, this will allow you to grow and give perspective to your living. "SOMETIMES" by Joel Bowa Sometimes, we ignore the fact that whatever we sow is what we reap in life. "TIME" by Michael Altisoler The bad news is time flies, the good news is you’re the pilot, go cruise forward into prosperity by valuing your time. You are known by who you are, were or will be - what legacy will you leave behind? “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be FELT with heart.” Helen Keller - quote. Prayer: Today may be my last day God, help me live it pleasing to you. Amen.

While I was busy squandering today, tomorrow went flying by. With his old ally father time, who lent him wings to fly. I did not recognize tomorrow; he looked just like yesterday. I know that was impossible, I had just wasted him away. If I could reach back into the past, into my sack of sorrows I would replace all those yesterdays with shiny new tomorrows. God gave us no promise of tomorrow, no matter how important our endeavor Today is that tomorrow we keep waiting for forever. Submitted by J.P. Boardman

Velma’sView By Velma Kitchens ARE WE DOING BETTER? Another year is more than half gone. While we look back at the last seven months of this year, how are you doing on your new year's resolutions? As I said in other articles I do not make resolutions, I just try to do better. Are you doing better? Are you being kinder, more loving, more giving, slower to be angry, more understanding with people? Are we more forgiving? Well, the list could go on and on but the one most of all is being a better servant for the Lord. While we all fall short we must try to do better at telling others of the saving grace of Jesus Christ. We do not know what may befall us tomorrow - if we even have a tomorrow. God holds our time in His hand and when He is finished with us we will be with Him if He is our Father and we are his children. A wise man once said that God doesn't have grandchildren and that is so true. We are God’s children or we are not. There is no middle of the road. I saw a bumper sticker which said, get right or get left. Is it too hard to serve the Lord after what He has done for you? Is it really that hard to read your Bible, pray, go to church and tell others of His love and salvation? If it is that hard, just look back to Calvary. Shame on us for complaining and griping day by day. Oh, be thankful for all He has blessed us with and for all He is doing and has done. He is a great Father and I am glad I am His child. I hope you are reading His word every day; if you are not, just start. I spoke with a lady the other day and her great grandson is eight years old and wants to do great things for the Lord. His parents think he is too young, but I told her to tell them to let him go! Whatever is in his little heart to do for Jesus let him do it. We should never be a stumbling block to anyone young or old who wants to serve Jesus. A little six-year-old girl told me when she grows up she is going to sing songs about Jesus and that she already wrote a song. I told her she didn't have to wait until she grew up to sing and write and then she sang her song for me. She thought she had to be grown up to sing and write for Jesus and I told her to write down her songs in a book and sing them wherever she wanted. Most of us adults are grown up ourselves and we should never tell a child they must wait to serve the Lord. Just try to do better and I know the Lord will help you. He certainly helps me each and every day.

100th Birthday Celebration of Lewis D’Antoni Golf Tournament at Twin Falls State Park August 31, 2013 MULLENS, WV - Long-time high school basketball coach and Twin Falls State Park golfer Lewis D'Antoni becomes a centenarian this New Year’s Eve. Weather conditions in December generally are not conducive to golf play, so a Labor Day weekend 100th birthday celebration golf tournament is planned at Twin Falls State Park on Saturday, Aug. 31. The twoperson scramble format is open to the public. “It’s an honor to organize this event for Mr. D’Antoni,” said
Brian Wetzel, golf professional at Twin Falls. “He’s been a pass holder at the park for many years, he made a hole in one on #4 when he was 91 years old, and he brings gentleman’s competition to the game of golf. His life story is as remarkable as his coaching career.” Lewis J. D’Antoni was born in 1913 in McComas in McDowell County. He was a standout athlete at Mullens High School in Wyoming County. He attended Concord College, where he was a
four-year letterman, team captain, and all-conference player in football and basketball. Lewis also lettered in tennis. After college, he began his career in education. He then served in the U.S. Navy during World War II before resuming his career in education. He went on to become one of West Virginia’s great high school coaches. He later coached at Chesapeake High School in Ohio. His combined experience led to more than 450 victories and one state champi-
onship while at Mullens. He served 11 years as principal at Mullens High School and 12 years as assistant principal at Chesapeake High School. D’Antoni, with his late wife Betty Jo, is the father of Kathy, Mike, Dan, and Mark. Mike D’Antoni, head coach of the LA Lakers, is scheduled to play in the Aug. 21 tournament. The D’Antoni 100th Birthday tournament cost is $30 per person and includes a shared cart. It is a shotgun start beginning at
9:30 a.m. Reservations for the tournament are required in advance. Call 304-294-4044 to sign up. Twin Falls State Park is located in Wyoming County. It is a 4,000 acre travel and golf destination and features a 47-room lodge, 14vacation cabins, 50-site campground, hiking and biking trails, restaurant, and an 18-hole championship golf course.

Canada Goose Season Opens September 2 in W.Va. SOUTH CHARLESTON, WV West Virginia’s 2013–2014 waterfowl seasons will begin statewide on September 2, 2013, with the opening of the early Canada goose season, according to Curtis I. Taylor, Chief of the Division of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Section. The early season will end on September 14. The season will also be open Oct. 1 – 26, Nov. 11 – 16, and Dec. 16 – Jan. 31. Shooting hours are one-half hour before sunrise until sunset. All other general waterfowl hunt-
ing regulations apply to the September season. Hunters must possess a federal waterfowl stamp and a free Migratory Bird Harvest Information Program (HIP) registration card in addition to their regular hunting license. HIP cards are free and available from DNR offices and all hunting license agents. “Canada geese are found throughout West Virginia, but the largest concentrations are in the major river valleys where agriculture and suburban landscapes provide an abundance of open
land,” Taylor said. “A recentlyharvested crop field near water would be an ideal and obvious place to hunt. However, hunters should not overlook those out-ofthe-way spots such as an isolated pasture or strip bench with a small pond.” Hunters should also seek out hunting opportunities near towns, golf courses and similar areas that may wish to have local goose populations reduced. Regular scouting, not only before the season but also during the season, is important because geese
are very mobile and will move to isolated areas to avoid hunting pressure. Because most goose hunting is found on private lands, it is important for hunters to maintain a good relationship with landowners. Some wildlife management areas also offer goose hunting, and hunters should contact the appropriate DNR District Office with questions about specific areas. Waterfowl hunters are reminded of two important toll free numbers. Federal waterfowl
stamps may be purchased with a credit card by calling 1-800-7826724. Also, hunters who harvest a banded bird may call 1-800327-2263 to report the bird and find out when and where it was banded. Banded birds may also be reported online at www.reportband.gov. West Virginia’s 2013-2014 Migratory Bird Hunting Regulations brochure will be available at license agents, game check stations and DNR offices in late August, and are available online now at www.wvdnr.gov.
September Openings of the West Virginia Youth Squirrel Season and Statewide Squirrel Season SOUTH CHARLESTON, WV The 2013 West Virginia hunting seasons begin soon, and the popular squirrel hunting season begins in less than a month. The statewide squirrel season will open on Saturday, September 14, 2013, following the one-day youth squirrel season on September 7, 2013. “Don’t miss out on the first opportunity to hit the woods this fall
and pursue the state’s favorite small game species,” said Curtis l. Taylor, Chief of the Wildlife Resources Section of the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources. “September’s mild weather conditions and longer days provide great opportunities to introduce youth to the sport.” The September 7 youth-only day provides hunters with an excellent opportunity to assist
youngsters in developing basic hunting skills and ethics. Hunters should expect to see slightly higher squirrel numbers this year as compared to last year, based on the spotty but above-average hard mast crop that occurred in 2012. Last year’s mast crop should have served to increase this year’s squirrel survival and productivity. Squirrel hunters are reminded
that success comes with proper scouting and by locating those areas with abundant mast conditions. The daily bag limit remains at six and the possession limit at 24 squirrels. Youth hunters under the age of 15 must be accompanied by a licensed adult. During the youth squirrel season, the accompanying adult cannot carry a gun or a bow and must remain near
enough to the youth to render advice and assistance. In addition, youth hunters age 15 to 17 must comply with all licensing requirements. All other licensing requirements will remain in effect, and hunters should check the 20132014 West Virginia Hunting and Trapping Regulations Summary for additional information.
Applications Accepted for McClintic WMA Duck Blinds September 6 Deadline to Apply POINT PLEASANT, WV – Waterfowl hunters who wish to hunt from a shooting station in the controlled waterfowl hunting zone of McClintic Wildlife Management Area (WMA), located near Point Pleasant, must submit their applications by September 6, 2013, according to David T. McClung, Wildlife Manager for the Division of Natural Resources
Wildlife Resources Section. Hunting is by permit only on a portion of McClintic WMA during the October split of waterfowl season. Hunters are assigned an area free of charge and are allowed to bring one guest. A shooting station is also available for the physically challenged waterfowl hunter. Applicants are selected randomly by drawing and
will be notified if selected. Hunters may apply by visiting the DNR website www.wvdnr.gov under “Hunting/Main Page” or by printing the following information on a postcard: Name, Address, Telephone number and the day(s) they desire to hunt. Cards should be addressed to: DUCK HUNT, 1163 Wildlife Road, Point Pleasant, WV 25550.
The controlled waterfowl hunt is October 1 through October 12, 2013. Applicants not selected may come to the McClintic WMA office on the morning of each day’s hunt to apply for a shooting station not filled by selected hunters. These vacancies are filled on a first come basis. Those individuals not selected for an area may hunt waterfowl on Mc-
Clintic WMA outside the controlled hunting zone. Consult the 2013-2014 West Virginia Migratory Bird Hunting Regulations for more complete information. Migratory bird regulations will be available at DNR offices by the end of August and are on the DNR’s website.

The Jefferson Awards are presented on two levels: national and local. They began in 1972 to create a Nobel Prize for public service. Today, their primary purpose is to serve as a "Call to Action for Volunteers" in local
communities. The mission of the Jefferson Awards is to encourage and honor individuals for their achievements and contributions through public and community service. From each community, the Jefferson Awards Board selects one local winner to represent their community and be honored as part of the National Ceremonies in Washington, DC in June. 50 to 60 U.S. Senators present these winners their award.

HEALING FROM PAGE 1 Missions has provided surgery, medical supplies and services to the poorest of the poor. To many Haitians, this group of local men and women is like a light in their darkness. "There is such a need, and the people there have very little resources, but they're so appreciative," said Julie Brewer, nurse practitioner and director of TriState Medical Missions. To help fuel this annual effort, the Culloden-based organization is hosting a Hands for Haiti 5k Run/Walk at 9 a.m. Saturday Sept. 7 at Barboursville Park. It is $20 to enter and $25 the day of the event. "The 5k's purpose is to raise money for medicine, supplies and to cover costs for running the generator, which is $50 an hour," Brewer said. "We really appreciate the support from the Tri-State businesses, hospitals and individuals - we have people with big hearts in this community and in the Tri-State area." The medical professional also thanks the selfless men and women, who make up the team that will go to Haiti. The whole mission humbles Brewer. It leaves her emotionally joyful to participate. "I've been a nurse practitioner and mid wife for 30 years, and this gives me the most sat-

Training and Preparation for “Last Days” By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
CULLODEN - In this quiet town of 3,000, something new is unfolding. Atop a hill on Joy Lane, a white cross overlooks U.S. 60, Hurricane and Culloden. Inside a building, zealous men and women of all ages are working, praying and pursuing a vision. It’s preparation. A longtime preacher walks into a sanctuary with an undeniable urgency in his heart. Kneeling at an altar, he cries out for help, guidance and direction. Others with cleaning supplies in their hands and fervency in their hearts join him as one loud voice declaring a promise from God. It’s a last-day, Heavenly move they seek. “What I see here is the last days - it’s about the Middle East and what’s happening in Israel, and it’s my prayer that America will stand with Israel,” Wright Way Ministry President James Wright said. “…The coming of the Lord is sooner than we know.”
The veteran pastor acquired the building from Randolph Street Baptist, the former church that used to operate there. Now, he plans to use it as a school, a church and a preparation headquarters for a new ministry like no other. “We are training men and women to fulfill their callings and to win souls to Jesus - we’ll bring them in, train them up and send them out - from the seats to the streets,” Wright said. “In 1998, while pastoring at Maranatha Fellowship Church, the Lord laid on my wife and I to start a ministry that helps small churches and mentors preachers.” The minister continued, “We’re not in competition with any other church - we’re here to help.” Virginia Wright has stood by her husband for more than 45 years. Looking toward this new vision, she stands with confidence. “When you’re in agreement and in unity, God does His work with you and through you,” she said. “We’re anticipating great things that God is going to do and we have a place where part
of that can transpire.” Near Wright, a young man cleaned off tables and organized cassettes of evangelical sermons, left behind from the church that previously used the building. Evan Vance is excited to have another opportunity to fulfill his calling. “At the age of four or five, I was called, and I remember feeling like it was something that I was supposed to do,” the evangelist said. “This is a new opportunity that God has given us, and He knew about it before we were even formed in our mothers’ wombs.” Vance continued with convic-
tion, “He chose us for a time as this.” As the day progressed, so did the number of volunteers. By noon, more than 25 worked on various maintenance and cleaning projects in and around the building. They did it joyfully. Smiles covered their sweatsoaked faces. Wright positioned chairs and furniture Monday afternoon. He looked toward a pulpit at the front of the sanctuary and declared a promise from Psalms
107 over the new building and ministry. “And He led them forth by the right way that they might go to a city of habitation,” Wright proclaimed. A grand opening of Wright Way Ministry’s Revival Center is scheduled for 7 p.m. Friday Sept. 20. All are welcome. Services and training will take place Tuesdays and Fridays.
