Local churches review Year of Mercy
St. Augustine Catholic Church in Footville and St. Paul Catholic Church in Evansville joined efforts to promote Pope Francis’ “Year of Mercy.” On Dec. 8, 2015,Pope Francis declared 2016 as a Jubilee Year of Mercy,envisioning a year when people would become more merciful in their own lives and bring God’s mercy to others. Throughout the year, both parishes have undertaken various charitable works and promoted evangelization and educational and spiritual outreaches to inspire everyone to live
their faith and to act on the Corporal Works of Mercy. Shelter the Homeless Through Food for the Poor, an international missionary organization, the parishioners were challenged to collect $3,200 to build a home for a family in Nicaragua. St. Paul’s religious education classes had a successful “Change-ing” Lives Campaign challenge to raise money for the house project. Also, through Food for the

McMahons keep Day’s Feed in Orfordville: Now J’s Feed By Sean Devlin CORRESPONDENT
Serving the people -- that is what is most important to Jeb and Janell McMahon, born and raised in Orfordville, Wis. For a year now, the couple has owned a store once called Day’s Feed and Supply. They have renamed it J’s Feed to represent themselves
and the previous owner whom they respect but who can no longer run the business due to health issues. J’s Feed serves families and farms in and around Orfordville and even delivers as far as Fitchburg and into northern Illinois. The McMahons, high school sweet-hearts, have been dairy farm-

SCHOOL BOARD If you are interested in running for school board next spring, your papers need to be filed in the school district office by 5 p.m. on Jan. 3. There are two school board seats up for election next spring. Patrick Daniels and Sue Trotter are both finishing up their current terms on the board. SENIOR OF THE WEEK Riley Adkins is the senior of the week. She plans on attending a fouryear university—either the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse or the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Her favorite memories in high school

ers since 1995. Ambitious and community-minded, they serve the area with their involvement in the FFA, hoof-trimming, real-estate, nursing, and now by continuing to offer southern Wisconsin a family-owned, local shop to purchase feed. “We grew up as farmers. We’ve always managed a lot,” Janell said. Before the family took over the business, they owned the building, and when Junior, the previous owner, fell ill, they did not want their community to fall prey to big business. “This is old school, Mom-and-Pop relationships. We offer advice and remove the hassle for people,” Jeb said. Their time spent on the farm around animals has taught them what each breed requires in terms of nutri-
tion, and they pride themselves on being able to meet each customers’ needs with the availability of custom mixes of feed. The decision to take over the business was quick—with ownership being switched and the shop operational within one week. “It’s an opportunity for growth in a different area,” Janell said. Since their opening, the store has maintained the core value of serving the community, and the couple has increased inventory and uphold their promise of being able to serve every customer’s needs to satisfaction. The business is very much a family-oriented establishment. “Someone from our family is here at all times during open hours,” Janell said. Jeb’s
father, Mike, plays many important roles by assisting with in-door sales and delivery tasks. The younger McMahon boys, Grant (15) and Noah (17), are constantly milling about, willing and able to assist their parents maintain the business. The McMahons attempt to run their new business with values they believe are important to community growth; they keep supplies near the farms, where they are needed. “For me, it doesn’t matter whether I’m nursing or here. I’m taking care of people in the best way I possibly can,” Janell said. J’s feed is located at 721 Genesis Drive in Orfordville and is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays.

include going to state in softball, winning regionals in basketball, and winning powder-puff during homecoming. Her advice for underclassmen: “Don’t upset Ms. Sam. Put effort into all of your classes, especially science. Don’t cause drama!!!!!” She doesn’t have one specific role model. She has many role models for different facets of her life. In high school, her favorite class was Anatomy. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL On Thursday, Dec. 23, the Panthers beat Palmyra-Eagle with a final score of 74-55. Chelsea Burkhalter scored a game-high 22 points and made six three-pointers. Sara Jordan added 12 points, Mackenzie Byrne added 11 points, and Hailey Kammerer chipped in nine points. Overall, the team made
24 of 36 free throws. BOYS’ BASKETBALL The boys’ basketball team defeated Parkview in a nonconference game on Tuesday, Dec. 20. The Panthers defeated the Vikings 71-35. Keagan Haffele led the way for the Panthers with 26 points, including shooting 10 of 10 from the free throw line. Matt Schmitt and Joe Rackow also chipped in with 17 and 11 points, respectively.

Albany Police Report
Don’t shovel snow if you are in poor physical condition or have a history of heart disease; enlist the help of others. Dress appropriately; layer clothes so you can remove layers as needed. Cover your nose and mouth to warm the air you are breathing. Make sure your hands and head are covered. Push the snow if possible instead of lifting. If you must lift, take small amounts and lift with your knees, not your back. Take frequent breaks. Shovel with a friend to share the work.

Letter to the Editor
My name is Peder Johanson. In addition to serving this community as pastor to Bethlehem Lutheran Church, I have the pleasure and privilege to serve as a member of Better Brodhead. Our coalition is comprised of citizens representing various sectors of our shared community and works toward a vision we can all agree is worthy of our efforts: a community where everyone is valued and safe. I was part of the initial group and conversations that brought this coalition together, and it is with great satisfaction and gratitude that I continue to support our work in the community. The hope that we can be a community where everyone is valued and safe is of profound importance for me as a Christian minister and as a citizen. No one should ever feel alone in their suffering or struggling with abuse of any kind with substances or within relationships. A lot of what we do falls into the work of prevention. You may have seen some of our printed materials or received information at one of our public events (we host community suppers, forums, and other learning opportunities) and you may wonder how our coalition works together. Our funding comes from a generous federal grant from
the Drug Free Communities (DFC) Support Program. The greatest resource for the coalition, however, is the people. We are generously gifted with energetic, dedicated, and compassionate members of this community. As I mentioned above, we are comprised of such citizens from across the community (schools, business, parents, law enforcement, faith community, etc.), and by bringing those various perspectives together at one table with a common goal, we find that we can do so much more together than any of us could do alone. I write this first to thank you all for the support given to our coalition. We would not have been awarded our grant if not for the strong partnerships we have already enjoyed. Secondly, I ask you to consider what more you might be able and willing to do with Better Brodhead. Whether you are interested in taking a place at “our table” or helping from time to time with particular projects, we would love to welcome you into the coalition! Our next meeting will be held on Tuesday, Jan. 17, at 6:30 p.m. We would love to see you there! For more information, you may email Brielle Powers at brielle.betterbrodhead@gmail.com

The purpose of Christmas By Pastor Russ Doebler LIVING WORD
During this week between holidays, I thought I could sneak in a few more comments about Christmas before we take down the tree and resume dieting. Now that most of the celebrating is subsiding and life is returning to normal, it’s a good time to reflect on—not just the meaning of Christmas (you hear that every year)—but on the purpose of Christmas. Because that continues beyond the holiday. We all know Christmas isn’t supposed to be about Santa and gifts. We don’t need to be reminded of the materialistic secularization of Christmas. And we know it’s more than a serene nativity scene. It’s about the Savior who came to the world. But how he came to the world is what I’d like to draw your attention to. The Christmas story is a birthing story. Every mom has a birthing story. Some are funny, some scary. If Mary was having a coffee with other moms who didn’t know her story, she would share how she gave birth unexpectedly while out of town. In a barn. And was visited by two groups of strangers who wanted to worship her baby. And, oh yeah, she was a virgin when the baby was born. The story is outside the bounds of human logic or imagination. The birth of Jesus set in motion a new movement in knowing God, which we call Christianity. The story of Christianity is also a birthing story. According to John’s Gospel, every follower of Jesus is born again. So all true followers of Jesus have a birthing story describing how they came to life-changing faith in Christ. The birth of a child is a helpful word-picture to describe new life in Christ. Conception is the result of

a relationship between a man and woman. There is a time of development before the baby is born. Birth is a crisis moment. It is a noticeable event. The spiritual parallels are that spiritual birth also begins with a relationship—between a person and God. But just like not every encounter between husband and wife results in pregnancy, not every encounter between a person and God produces new birth. For example, you can go to church, say prayers, read the Bible, even get baptized, but the Scripture itself doesn’t teach that being born again comes from any of these encounters, as important as they all are. God’s desire is that interaction with Him conceives new life that changes everything. In Mary’s case, there was a literal conception that resulted in a literal birth. For the rest of us, God wants to relate to us in such a way that His word is conceived in us and produces a new birth inside us. To be reborn, we must leave our old lives, thinking, and habits for new lives. Sadly, not every church-going person makes it out of the womb. They may be very religious, but there was never a crisis moment, like a birth, that resulted in a new life. Pregnancy cannot continue indefinitely or the life will be lost. Have you had that crisis moment where you have left the confining womb of the world around us and asked God to give you a fresh start? Has your religious experience become so routine it’s stale and lifeless? The purpose of Christmas is that God’s Son was born into the world so that we might be born into the kingdom of God. A new year is a great time for new birth. Why not reach out to God now and ask him to give you a new life?
