  • Pastor's Corner

    May 20, 2020

    BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE We have all found ourselves there. Caught between 2 choices, not knowing which way to go, whom to turn to, where to be. We know we can’t stay where we are – too dangerous, too deficient, life not very good here. What do we do. The people of God found them in just such a situation in Jeremiah 40 – 45. They were caught between Nebuchnezzar’s army on one side, and a rebel named Ishmael of their own people on another. All were threatening to kill them. What to do? They did what we all should do. They asked the One...

  • Rosendale will keep America great!

    May 20, 2020

  • To combat coronavirus, we may need more antibiotics

    May 20, 2020

    By Cornelius J. Clancy, MD The coronavirus infects and kills more Americans each day.

According to one study, secondary infections were present in half of those who died from coronavirus. Unfortunately,...
