econd’s Gazette celebrates 11 years of service to you this month. We have published 132 issues, and distributed on the first Sunday of each month. It has been a pleasure recapping the activities at church and sharing it with you. We covered births, deaths, the 100th church anniversary, the heart transplant of our Bishop, his retirement and the installation of our present Pastor. This is just a few bits of history, for to recap all would be to numerous in this 132nd issue. This month we write about COVID-19, news that will surely raise its head in 2031 as we research to find what was going on in April 2020. How ironic that eleven years ago, March 28, 2009 the first cases of H1N1 swine flu in the U. S. occurred in two people in California. President Obama taking the flu shot to protect his health on December 20, 2009. As we go through the next days/months of caring for ourselves and families lets remember to pray without ceasing. The whole world is in His hands.
