VFW Honors President George Bush by Jackie Devine

Saluting our Kids - Each year, nearly 40,000 high school students from across the country enter to win a share of the $2.2 million in educational scholarships and incentives awarded through the VFW’s Voice of Democracy audio-essay competition. And annually, more than 125,000 students in grades 6-8 enter the VFW’s Patriot’s Pen youth essay contest. The first-place winner from each state competes for national awards totaling $50,000, with each firstplace state winner receiving a minimum of $500 at the national level. On January 9th, VFW Post 8905 will host a dinner to honor Cypress area winners. Additional Events: Steak Night on January 4th

Donna Morse, VFW Auxiliary President representing Cypress VFW Post 8905, along with Honor guards from VFW Post 8790 were among the flag waving-crowd that lined the tracks of Spring, TX as the special funeral train pulled by locomotive 4141 carried George H. W. Bush to his final resting place on the grounds of his presidential library. VFW members and other patriotic Americans dedicate millions of hours each year working to spread patriotism and honor our nation's heroes. From volunteering at VA hospitals and visiting classrooms to youth scholarships and recognizing teachers and scouts, the VFW is in the community. Copyright © 2019 Peel, Inc.

Field of Dreams a Huge Success by Janet Guthrie The First Annual FSA Fairfield of Dreams Tournament was held, on December 1, 2018 at the Fairfield Athletic Association’s fields. According to Michael McDaniel, “It will be an annual event now that it is established. We had 10 teams, five recreational and five competitive. The difference is recreational has buddies on the field with them and competitive does not have a buddy. We had teams from all over Houston area. From Conroe all the way to Lake Houston area up to Cypress. For team names we basically used local high school mascots.” One hundred-and-seven special needs players participated, and 162 local Fairfield volunteers unselfishly gave up time to assure the event was a success. The event was organized by Chad McDaniel, Laura Edgorf, and Becky Portzline. Special thanks to Texas Roofworks LLC for being the lead sponsor of the event. Additional sponsors include: Children’s Lighthouse, Bahama Bucks, Webb Automotive, Texas Children, Urgent Care, JNL Plumbing, Buzz Tees, Athletic Threads, CFI Mechanical, More Than Signs, Crazy Apes Tees, YMCA, and Miracle League.

LAKES OF ROSEHILL Good Shepherd UMC Classic Adults Luncheon Monday, January 7, 2019 11:45Am @ 20155 Cypresswood Dr. Silver Sleuths The Houston Better Business Bureau and their Educational Foundation believe that consumer education is the best protection against deceptive business practices. Additionally, statistics indicate that senior citizens are often special targets for fraud because they are more trusting and less suspecting of the presence of fraud. For this reason, the BBB and the Educational Foundation have implemented an innovative program called the "Silver Sleuths" that helps older adults identify and avoid fraudulent business practices. Make plans now to join Classic Adults for our January 7th luncheon. You will hear from Candy Twyman, Executive Director of The Better Business Bureau Education Foundation, on ways to protect yourself from deceptive sales practices. Resolve to make 2019 the year that you become smarter and wiser regarding “fake business”! Lunch will be pot luck! We’ll start off the year with all those wonderful warm, home cooked dishes from all the super chef ’s in our Classic Adults group! Be sure to register for the luncheon ASAP on the church website www.goodchurch.us under “Registrations”. Bring a side dish, salad, desert, rolls, or whatever is your specialty! Good Shepherd Classic Adults welcomes any person 50+ to gather with us for Christian Fellowship, entertainment, adventure, and light hearted and inspirational programs! You do not have to be a member of Good Shepherd UMC to attend Classic Adults. For more information on Classic Adults go to the Good Shepherd website www.goodchurch.us and click on Adult Ministries or call the church at (281) 373-2273. Classic Adults meets the first Monday of the month……unless it falls on a holiday, then it’s the second Monday! If you’d like to be on our e-mail list, contact the church with your info!

LAKES OF ROSEHILL Second Baptist Church 52 Weeks: Know the Bible submitted by Jonathan Spencer, Adult Ministries Pastor Every new year brings the opportunity for new beginnings! As we consider our new goals for 2019, Second Baptist Church would like to invite you to set one goal in particular with them. This year, Second Baptist is challenging their entire church family to “know the Bible.” For many of us, the Bible can seem like a confusing puzzle. We may pick up a few pieces over the years through personal devotions or church attendance, but unfortunately, we often struggle to see how all of those pieces truly fit together. However, when the Bible is properly understood, we can see those pieces come together to communicate a beautiful picture of God and His love for mankind. This year, the Second family invites you to learn how to put those pieces together with them. The church is selling 1 year chronological Bibles and challenging their congregation to diligently commit to the daily reading plan. Every Sunday, Second’s 14 Adult Bible Study classes will teach Bible lessons that help connect the dots to the previous week’s readings. Additionally, Second’s preaching Pastors will deliver sermons every weekend that tie together the big ideas from those daily

reading assignments. Whether you are a seasoned Bible reader, or if you’ve never picked up the book, 2019 is the perfect opportunity for you to establish a new beginning in God’s Word. Take the challenge, and join Second Baptist every weekend for 9:30AM Bible Study and 11AM Worship. If you do, we’re confident that these 52 weeks will be a life-changing experience for you!
