TX Memorium Original Publish Date: August 19, 2014 2 Timothy 3:16, 17 I never cease to be amazed at the riches of God’s Word. It always speaks to the point of my needs whatever they are. In a recent message our pastor, Brother Chase Hinson, challenged us to let the Bible be the one book of reference we use to set some guidelines for daily living. My thought for this week is this: it is our Book of Hope. Two passages of scrip ture from the Old Tes tament give us stories of hope experienced by two people who felt hopelessly abandoned – Hagar in the Book of Genesis and Job in the Book of Job. Hagar will be remem bered as the hand maid of Abraham and Sarah. God finds her in the des ert fleeing with nowhere to go. God comforts her and sends her back to the household of Abra ham. Furthermore He gives her expectant child the name of Ish mael which means “God hears”. Hagar responds in Genesis 16:13 and give us a most wonder ful statement “You are the God who sees me.” Job feels out of touch with God. He tries to make contact but to no avail. And then we hear Job say “He knows the way I take.” Is there not a message of hope here for us? “God knows the way I take.” – Job 23:3 “God sees” – Genesis 16:13“God hears” We are not forgotten. The Bible is not only our Book of help. It is also the Book of Hope. My encouragement this week is “Resolve to read and study the Bible prayerfully and practice its teachings personally. You will find it to be that God’s amazing word is capable at rolling the burdens away and re placing them with eter nalInblessings.thetime that you may feel forgotten read Job 23:3 and Genesis 16:13. You will be in touch with the God who both hears and sees.

Cook for an other 1-2 minutes, occasion ally stirring, until shrimp is pink on both sides. Remove the shrimp from the skil let.

Add cooked and drained pasta from step 1 to the skillet with shrimp and mushrooms and cream sauce. Reheat on me dium heat. Stir well. If the cream sauce is too thick and you want it thinneradd some pasta water in small amounts to the cream sauce (while the sauce is simmering on low-medium heat) until you reach desired consisten cy. Season with more salt and add more crushed red pepper flakes and basil, if desired. I hope you will try this one! ENJOY!!

The Common Church
By Mike Ivanhoe(MinisterDickisonoftheChurchof Christ) By inspiration, Paul wrote that “There is one body” (Ephesians 4:4). He had begun the epistle in chapter one by informing the reader that the church is the body of Christ. Paul told that God “hath put all things un der his(Christ’s) feet, and gave him(Christ) to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body” (Ephesians 1:2223).This church, this one body, was promised by Jesus. Christ said that “I will build my church” (Matthew 16:18). Je sus built the church, “he hath purchased with his own blood” (Acts 20:28). The one church belongs to Christ. It is His church.Thechurch is to follow, sub mit, obey Jesus. Paul likened Jesus and the church to a hus band and wife, “For the hus band is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body” (Ephesians 5:23). Christ is “the head of the body, the church: who is the begin ning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence” (Colos sians 1:18). Paul wrote, “Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be per fectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment” (1 Corinthians 1:10). “Then they that gladly re ceived his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls” (Acts 2:41) People were being baptized ‘into’ Christ. Paul reminded that Chris tians in Galatia “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ” (Galatians 3:27). When people obeyed the gospel, “the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved” (Acts 2:47). He does the same thing today. There is one body, one church. It is the same church of the New Testament, the same church that you can be apart of today. Please contact the church of Christ in Ivanhoe, TX.

New Digital License Option Available for Super Combo Users AUSTIN— Never worry about forgetting a paper Super Combo license at home again with the new digital tag op tion from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD). Beginning with the 2022-23 li cense year, Texas residents can purchase a digital Super Com bo license (Items 111, 117 and 990) that will authorize digital tagging of harvested deer, tur key and oversized red drum. The digital license option is available through online pur chase only when licenses go on sale August 15. A digital license holder will not receive a printed license or tags but must keep their digi tal license available while in the field. The license can be viewed through the TPWD Outdoor Annual and My Texas Hunt Harvest (MTHH) mobile apps. “Texas Parks and Wildlife is excited to be offering a digi tal license and tag option for the first time for outdoorsmen and women this license year,” said Carter Smith, Executive Director of TPWD. “We are piloting this with the Super Combo license types which is one of our most popular li censes that we sell. Lifetime Combo license holders will also be able to use the digital tagging portion of this pilot as well. This has been a longtime coming, but we think this is a great first step to offering more options for our hunters and anglers in the field. We in tend to evaluate how well this works as we move forward and look forward to feedback from our customers who choose this option. Texans using this option will need to adhere to these re quirements for using the digi tal Super Combo tag: Digital tagging for harvest ed deer, turkey and oversized red drum must be completed through the MTHH mobile app. An updated version of the app that supports digital tag ging will be available August 15.Digital license holders are not exempt from the Federal Duck Stamp requirement. If you purchase a Federal Duck Stamp, it will be mailed to your address on file. The stamp must be signed on its face and is required to be on your per son while hunting waterfowl. Other license purchases made for this season (e.g., Annual Public Hunt, Federal Sandhill Crane Permit, Bo nus Red Drum Tag, etc.) will be provided in digital format only and will show up as separate items on your digital license.Number and type of tags is sued with digital licenses are limited by species. A full list can be found on the digital tag webpage on the TPWD web site. All county bag limits, special provisions and restric tions apply. Execution of a digital tag serves as comple tion of mandatory harvest re porting for deer and turkey in applicable counties. It is your responsibility to track tag usage. Use the Harvest History section in MTHH and ensure that your app is synced. Do not harvest an animal if you are not cer tain that you have a tag avail able to Moreuse.information about harvest reporting and required physical documentation for deer and turkey, as well as harvest reporting require ments for red drum, can be found on the digital tag web page at https://tpwd.texas. gov/digitaltags.

Water lightly stained; 90 degrees; 3.54 feet low. Overall fishing has slowed due to the low oxygen levels and warmer water. Despite this white bass and striped bass are really good in 9-15 feet of water. These fish are not sitting still, so trolling is putting more fish in the boat cur rently. Channel catfish bite is red hot and excellent. Catch ing limits easily by 10 A.M. using punch bait and dip bait fished over baited holes in 25-30 feet of water. Crappie bite is surprisingly good with minnows out fishing jigs. Changing locations frequently to get a nice box of fish. Largemouth bass bite is slow. Fish extremely shallow water early in the morning at daylight with topwater baits. Texoma EXCELLENT. Water stained; 88 degrees; 1.21 feet below. Striped bass are good on shallow flats early in the morning with topwaters. The fish move deeper biting on slabs as the sun rises. .

Hello everyone! What a wonderful service we had in God’s house Sunday morning! It’s no secret that we desperately need revival as a nation. The only way for us to experience true revival is that we hold to the promise that is given to us in 2 Chronicles 7:14, in which God tells us, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” That is a wonderful promise from God, and why we as a nation are not clinging to this truth is beyond me. We’ve got to get our focus back on the Lord, where it needs to be. That being said, I came across a hymn in my research that should absolutely be our prayer not just as a nation, but in our own lives as well. This was written by John Mardley in 1562. “O Lord, turn not Thy face from me, Who lie in woful state, Lamenting all my sinful life Before Thy mercy-gate: A gate which opens wide to those That do lament their sin: Shut not that gate against me, Lord; But let me enter in. And call me not to strict account How I have sojourned here; For then my guilty conscience knows How vile I shall appear. So come I to Thy mercygate, Where mercy doth abound, Imploring pardon for my sin, To heal my deadly wound. O Lord, I need not to repeat The comfort I would have: Thou know’st, O Lord, before I ask, The blessing I do crave.

ROGER DALE HINKLE
The radio announcer introduces the #5 song on the countdown and this one signals an ear-to-ear grin. He tosses the razor into the water and whisker filled sink and with half of his face still covered with shaving cream, he hurries to the living room. He appears in the doorway, and we giggle cause of the half covered shaving cream face, but his focus never leaves the eyes of the woman he loves so deeply who is sitting in her chair filing her nails. He reaches his hand out and in a single motion, her hand slides into his and he lifts her to her feet. They glide across the room as if they were one, in perfect rhythm and never missing a beat. My brother and I glance at one another and after trading eye rolls, at the same time we let out “EWWWW” as we watch them gracefully finish the song. A kiss on the cheek that’s without shaving cream from his bride and he disappears to continue the tapping and humming. That is what Heaven looks like for me and my brother ever since the angels came and took our Daddy by the hand and led him the Promised Land where our mother awaits him. Harold Gene Brown of Bonham, TX entered into eternal rest on August 3, 2022 with his family by his side. He was born on December 22, 1944 to the late Earnest and Juanita (Crow) Brown. Harold was one of six children and grew up around the tiny community of Pecan Gap, TX. The Brown family later moved to Dodd City, TX where he would dig his heels in and spend the rest of his life. Harold graduated from Dodd City High School in 1963. He may not have been on the taller end of his genetics, but the kid could jump! He was proud to boast about his “flatfooted” vertical as he often told the story of how he could “stand flatfooted under the goal and dunk it” …pretty impressive for his 5’7” stature. He loved playing basketball and was quite the high school athlete. He also loved fast cars and working on them to make them faster and as loud as he could get it. He was a good mechanic and to his family he was the fixer of all things! Harold married his best friend and love of his life on May 29, 1965, only one day after her high school graduation. They were lifetime residents of Fannin County. Harold went to work for General Cable Company in Bonham, TX where he spent 38 years before his retirement in 2005. Together the couple raised two children, Hal and Amye. They were the perfect example of a nuclear family, country style. Left to cherish his memories are his children, Harold (Hal) Brown and wife Amber of Bonham, TX and Amanda (Amye) Brown and wife Destiny of Dodd City, TX. Five grandchildren, Hallie and Caleb Brown of Sherman, TX, Khylee Sisk and husband Colorado of Ivanhoe, TX, and Paizley and Layton Vaught of Dodd City, TX. One sister, Nancy Barber and husband Wayne of Boyd, TX. Two brothers, James Brown of Honey Grove, TX and Billy Ray Brown of Honey Grove, TX. Numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and so many more. He was greeted into Heaven by his loving wife, Betty (Boggs) Brown, his parents, Earnest and Juanita Brown, two sisters, Earnestine (Teeny) McCraw and Sue Fletcher. One grandson, Jonathan Brown. The celebration of Harold’s life was held on Monday, August 8, 2022 at Cooper Sorrells Funeral Home in Bonham, TX. The family received guests from 10am to 11am and services were at 11am. Graveside services immediately followed Harold’s celebration at the Dodd City Cemetery in Dodd City, TX. Serving as Pallbearers were Jeremy Doyle, BJ Efird, Ray Behrens, Wayne Barber, Tim Brown, Colorado Sisk, Craig Pate, and Jeff HonoraryHopkins.Pallbearers were Layton Vaught, Paul Kirkpatrick, Caleb Brown, and Willie Reeder. “A father is neither an anchor to hold us back nor a sail to take us there, but a guiding light whose love shows us the way” To convey condolences or sign an online registry please visit www.coopersorrells.com.

LEWIS RAY HEVRON Have you ever wondered what Heaven is like? Have you pictured who is there? What do you do all day? What comes to mind when you picture Heaven? Well, I would like to give you a tiny idea of what Heaven looks like to me and my brother…part 2. Nine years ago, we shared part 1 when our mother gained her angel wings. Now the time has come for us to share part 2 since our father gained his angel wings as well. As we finish our home cooked meal for four, my brother and I race to our small but cozy couch to embark on a match of push and shove to see who gets the best view of the TV. As we settle into our spots, we can hear the little radio in the bathroom playing the Saturday Night Country Countdown and the tapping of Daddy’s razor against the porcelain sink. He hums the tunes as he carefully removes yesterday’s shadow from the sides of his face slowly changing him to look almost childlike with the smoothness underneath the whiskers.

As one of only four members of 112A, the Lady Tigers start the 2022 sea son assured of one of the four available district berths in the playoffs. It will equate Trenton’s seventh trip to the volleyball postseason in the last eight years, as new head coach Lisa Davis begins her tenure. (Davis consis tently had her previous team, Leonard, either in playoffs -- or at least contend ing.)Three all-district honorable mentions -- senior Autumn Miles, junior Jolee McMahon and sophomore Aubrey Al exander -- return to help Trenton deter mine how its upcoming postseason will happen: as district champion, runnerup, third-place qualifier or fourth-place qualifier. District play will begin on Sept. 27, when Wolfe City visits. Until then -- the Lady Tigers’ postsea son preparation continues. Trenton’s Emma Dudley.
Vying Volleyball Veterans: Loaded Leonard looks in 2022 to be one of 11-3A’s postseason teams
Trenton’s Kylah Drane. By Rich Hilliard Recent Trenton graduate Viviana Murphy appears on the 2022 roster for the Austin College volleyball team. Murphy, a 2022 Trenton graduate, will wear jersey No. 22 and is listed as a 5-8 outside hitter for the ‘Roos, who reached the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference quarterfinals and posted a 20-11 overall record in 2021. Austin College will open its 2022 volleyball season with a homestand Sept. 1-3, playing two matches daily. While at Trenton, Murphy helped the Lady Tigers extend their then postseason streak to six-straight with trips during her first three of four varsity seasons. Individually, she earned all-district notoriety each year while at Trenton. She garnered a second-team selection and a first-team spot, respectively, as a freshman and sophomore in District 12-2A. Murphy earned an honorable mention as a junior and second-team selection as a senior in 16-2A.
