Sean and the others worked on the chapel two months and two days.
Although disabled due to a massive heart attack and subsequent quadruple bypass surgery about two years ago, Sean still wanted to build the chapel and worked as many hours each day as possible. His father funded the building of the chapel. They also received help from the Amish community to build

A little girl growing up on a mill hill near Dover Mill in Shelby, Jennifer said she would go to the nearby church by herself. Her family didn’t go so she would ride the church bus and go alone.
Years later after being away from God for a while, Jennifer said in 2013 she heard the voice of God telling her to “get baptized.” She had been baptized as a young girl, but she was obedient to the Lord’s voice and was re-baptized at South Mountain Christian Camp with a group of boys and girls. Then her new spiritual journey began.
Jennifer said she had been through testing trials and tribulation and believes God was testing her to see if she was going to be obedient.
She became involved in church and she joined Christ the King Church in Shelby where she is active today. She’s a leader in the women’s programs, helps in Vacation Bible School and also attends Sunday School and worship.
About 28 years ago the couple was looking for a house and discovered one on Ellenboro Henrietta Road. They knew it was the house for them. They learned the homeowner was a World War II veteran and a minister of the gospel.
“God uses people to bless us and accomplish His purposes in a variety
of ways. I know without a doubt that my Heavenly Father used my husband and my father-in-law to build the Agape Chapel,” she said. Jennifer said God gave her the name of Agape for the chapel’s identification.
Sean said the chapel is “way more” than he had first planned to build. He first thought about a wooden chapel but as he was looking for materials one day, he came across 22 glass doors and figured he could use them for the walls of the chapel, making it more of a glass structure.
He also said he had not heard of the Glass Chapel off Maple Creek Road in Rutherfordton until he had finished the Agape Chapel, which is much, much smaller, he said.
The chapel has strands of white lights on the inside that are reflected by the sun and offer tranquility in the evenings.
“I hope this will be a place for small Christian weddings, small Bible studies and doing what the Lord has laid on my life to do. The Lord has continued to open doors for me,” said Jennifer.
When she is not studying or in school, Jennifer works a full-time job at Steffes, a manufacturing plant in Shelby, where she is a buyer for the materials needed for the plant. She and Sean have a daughter Elisabeth, son-
in-law Jordan and granddaughter, Hannah 12, with whom they also spend time.
Jennifer said Sean and her family were baptized in the Broad River some time ago.

By Gary Miller
This last year has been one of the busiest and most stressful I have had in a long time. It was one of those years where my hunting was minimal. I’m actually embarrassed to tell you how many times I turkey hunted. Pitiful. This year, I’m looking forward to a more active deer season. I think I’ll have more opportunities to go. Those hours in the tree stand are terribly therapeutic. In order to be successful, they force me to be patient, quiet, and even reflective. On one property I hunt, I’ve already spotted a couple of nice bucks. My ability to be inactive will determine success. If I’m able to harvest one of these deer, the characteristic of that hunt will be patience and not settling for a lessor trophy. The risk, because in situations like this there’s always a risk, will be ending the season empty-handed. It’s a result I am familiar with. When trophy hunting, one has to decide that the journey will be the success. Not a meaningless journey, but one that will be filled with new information that could possibly lead to a buck of a lifetime. Nevertheless, the journey will be what the story is all about. It will be the plot and theme. If I’m able to take one of these bucks, it will only be a necessary ending. Because all stories must have an end.
Your story is not the end. The end is just necessary. The end may or may not be what you thought it would be. In fact, the end will most likely be something you never expected. And it may or may not be long. It will most likely be only a short pause in what is really your story. Your story, instead, will be made up of small, seemingly insignificant, moments. It will be made up of activities and not titles. While there may be some great accomplishment that outsiders will know you for, the most important ones in your life will see your story as something so much different. They will tell it to others not by saying “She did” but by saying “She was.” They will talk about you, describing your spirit, not your accomplishments. While you may get the trophy you are after, the story will include things like patience, compassion, determination, and love. And these will be what others will use to describe you. Once again, however, there is risk in trophy hunting. It’s that you might come home emptyhanded. But only empty-handed concerning the end. So, go ahead and reach for something rare. But don’t think, if by chance you can’t grab it, your story will be less. It won’t be. In fact, it won’t be any different. Only the end will be.

Miracles Have A Purpose
“The God of Miracles Series”
DANYALE PATTERSON
As believers, understanding why God does miracles can deepen our relationship with Him and strengthen our faith. Miracles serve as signs that affirm God’s sovereignty, power, and love, inviting us to trust in His greater plan, encouraging a deeper reliance on God and a commitment to living in accordance with His will. It also causes us to give him praise and adoration. Psalm 72:18 (CEV) “LORD God of Israel, we praise you. Only you can work miracles.”
A Manifestation of Love and Care God performs miracles out of His profound love and care for His creation. In the New Testament, we see Jesus’ compassion manifest as He heals the sick, raises the dead, and feeds the hungry. In Matthew 14:14 (NIV) , the scripture notes, “ When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.” Each miracle exemplifies His deep empathy and desire to meet both physical and spiritual needs. His miracles are
expressions of His love—reminders that He cares for us intimately.
Combating the Enemy’s Plans
In a world filled with darkness and despair, it is vital to remember that God performs miracles to combat the enemy’s plans. John 10:10 (NIV) tells us, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” Miracles serve as a direct counter to the work of the enemy, showcasing God’s dominion over sin, sickness, and death. Through His miracles, God reminds us that He is our protector and savior, allowing us to stand firm against the trials we face. Drawing People to Himself
Finally, one of the most beautiful aspects of God’s miracles is their ability to draw people to Him. In John 12:32 (NIV), Jesus said, “And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” Miracles often serve as catalysts for faith—people witness the impossible, and their hearts are stirred to seek the One who performed it. Each miraculous act has the potential to impact others, showcasing God’s glory and inviting them into a relationship with Him. Miracles are heavenly signs that beckon
us—and others—into the warm embrace of our Creator.
PRAY THIS PRAYER:
“Father, you are great and greatly to be praised. You do wonders with your mighty hand that never ceases to amaze me. Thank you for revealing yourself to me, drawing me to you, showing me how much you love me, and making all things work together for my good. No weapon formed against me or my family will ever prosper. Forgive me for displeasing you in thoughts, words, or deeds. I love you. In Jesus’ name - Amen.”
CONNECTING TO GOD:
I encourage you to open your heart to God’s love and grace. Seek forgiveness for past wrongs, and invite Jesus into your heart as your Savior and Lord. Find a supportive community in a local church where you can grow and serve others. You can cultivate a meaningful relationship with God by dedicating daily time to reading the Bible and praying.

Extension Master Gardener SM Association of Cleveland County invites community to participate in Great Southewast Pollinator Census August 23-24
The Extension Master Gardener SM Association of Cleveland County invites the community to participate in the Great Southeast Pollinator Census on August 23-24.
Participating is easy, and anyone can do it. Pick a spot in your garden, yard, local park or other outdoor location. Choose a pollinator plant to observe, any blooming plant that has insect activity. Spend 15 minutes observing the plant and count and categorize the insects that land own it. The community can also join members of the local Master Gardener volunteers at the Foothills Farmers’ Market in
Shelby on Saturday, August 24 to participate.
Links to a counting sheet and a pamphlet with the categories can be accessed on the Great Southeast Pollinator Census website at gsepc.org. This site is also where participants will upload their counts.
“Scientists estimate that pollinators are responsible for one in three bites of the food humans eat,” said Joe Bothel, an Extension Master Gardener volunteer in Cleveland County, “but pollinators are declining. The main causes are habitat loss, pesticide use, and for honeybees it’s disease.” He added
that in the United States pollination is valued at nearly $20 billion annually.
According to the N.C. State Extension Master Gardener volunteers’ website, the pollinator census project is a “citizen science project that invites community members of all ages to observe and count pollinator activity in their yards and neighborhoods.” The data collected provides information on pollinator populations and diversity.
The project was started by a University of Georgia Extension specialist in 2017. North Carolina joined the effort last year through the efforts of ex-
tension experts from NC State and NC A&T State University. Last year in North Carolina, more than 200 volunteers in 39 counties participated.
“Pollinators are essential for our way of life,” said Bothel, “and we need to do what we can to protect them.”
For more information on the Great Southeast Pollinator Census and how to participate, visit gsepc.org.

For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; Titus 3:3-6

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Labor Day weekend is widely considered the unofficial swan song of summer. Though millions of children return to school prior to Labor Day weekend, the final holiday of summer still marks an ending to the season of relaxation and a return to the hustle and bustle of life when the temperatures dip and schedules fill up.
Perhaps because Labor Day has become synonymous with the end of summer, many people look to make the weekended preceding the holiday as fun as possible. People with such intentions can keep these tips in mind as they seek to plan a memorable Labor Day weekend this year.
• Wake up early if you intend to travel. Labor Day weekend should be memorable for all the right reasons and traffic is not one of them. A recent survey from the vacation planning experts at The Vacationer found that roughly 148 million people planned to travel over Labor Day weekend in 2023, which makes the three-day period a particularly busy time to be on the road or in the air. If you intend to fly this Labor Day weekend, try to book an early morning flight to reduce the risk of delays. If you’re driving,
hitting the road before sunrise, particularly if you’re traveling a long distance, can help you avoid traffic jams.
• Plan the weekend. It can be tempting to fly by the seat of your pants come Labor Day weekend, but it’s still best to book excursions and even dinner reservations in advance. The popularity of Labor Day weekend and its status as the unofficial end of summer compels many people to get up and go over the three-day period, so theme parks, water parks, restaurants, and other attractions may be all booked in advance. Purchase tickets and make reservations months in advance to ensure you aren’t left with little to do and/or nothing to eat come Labor Day weekend.
• Create a backup plan. Ideally the weather will cooperate and Labor Day celebrants will be able to spend the entire weekend outdoors if they so desire. But weather is unpredictable, so it pays to create a backup plan in advance. If you’re traveling for the weekend, look
around for indoor entertainment spaces to spend the weekend if the weather is uncooperative. If you’re planning a backyard barbecue at home, arrange for some indoor activities or pick a rain date and let guests know. If the party is scheduled for the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, a Sunday rain date might work.
• Go with a summer theme. Even if the kids are already back in school and your summer family vacation is a distant memory, that’s all the more reason to revive the spirit of summer one last time. If hosting at home, a Hawaiian luau theme complete with a pig roast or a final summer pool party is a great way to send summer off before welcoming fall into the fold. Encourage guests to don summer attire and revive your summer playlist to get guests in the mood. If you’re traveling for the weekend, pick a sunny, sandy destination so you can squeeze every last drop out of summer.
Labor Day weekend marks the perfect time to send summer off with a bang. Some pre-weekend planning can ensure everyone has a memorable final few days of summer.

Feeding Kids of Cleveland County impacts local families
Feeding Kids of Cleveland County, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was started in 2016 out of the homes of several families who wanted to make a difference in the lives of students in need in our community. Since its inception, it has grown from serving 20 students in 2016 to serving 220 students in 2023, which adds up to over 800 people it is currently and consistently serving through our programs.
Its mission is to provide food and books to Cleveland County students and families identified as food insecure.
They do this through weekend food bags, school break food and book deliveries, and Community Table Thanksgiving Meals.
Over the summer, Feeding Kids Cleveland County served 607 children and 400 adults, totaling 1,007 people across the county.
Reading Kids Cleveland County worked hard to individually choose, pack, and give away over 2,500 books for all students and families throughout the summer. Each child received one book on their reading level and each family received one nonfiction book at each delivery. The impact of this initiative is significant. By bringing books into the homes of these families, they are improving literacy rates and promoting a love for reading in a small way. This is a testament to the power of collective action and the difference we can make when we come together.
With the work of Cleve-
land County Schools social workers and its team of volunteers, it provides a bag of shelf-stable, kid-friendly food on weekends and a large box of shelf-stable food, a bag of fresh food, and age-appropriate books during the four breaks from school throughout the year to bridge this nutritional gap: Spring Break, Summer Break, Thanksgiving Break, and Winter Break. It delivers three times during Summer Break since this is the most extended break for students.
In Cleveland County, one in three children is food insecure. Extended breaks from school, such as Spring and Winter Break, leave hundreds of students without a reliable food source they would normally receive through the school nutrition program at breakfast and lunch.
As a new school year begins, they have already begun thinking about Thanksgiving deliveries, Community Table Thanksgiving Meals (Nov. 27), Christmas deliveries, and the Light Ball Dash (Dec. 22).
