  • Pastor's Corner

    Oct 30, 2019

    Persecution Sunday, November 3, has been designated as the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. Many say that more Christians are being persecuted in the world today than at any other time in history. I'm not qualified to prove or disprove that statement, but I know what Jesus said in John 16:33. "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world." God never promised his children that everything would be smooth sailing through...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Oct 30, 2019

    In 2020, 468 seats are up for re-election on November 3. Thirty three in the Senate and 435 in the House. Obviously we Americans can no longer trust media to give us the true facts about someone running for a elected office in our government. Start doing your own research now on any one who you may consider voting for. If Americans had done this, neither Obama or Hillary Clinton,would have gotten half the votes they did. The Democrat we once knew is no longer. The Progressive Liberals have taken that party over. If some of you do not feel...

  • Trump Delivers Major Blow to Globalism

    Harold Pease PhD|Oct 30, 2019

    Fallout from President Donald Trump’s pullout of 28 soldiers from Syria has brought globalist of both political parties to the front in opposition. Turkey used the pullout as an excuse to invade Syria in a centuries-old conflict between themselves and the Kurds who were paid heavily by the American taxpayer to help the United States round up the last remaining fragments of ISIS.

  • Decorate and Extend the Life of your Carved Pumpkin

    Melinda Myers|Oct 30, 2019

    It’s time to select and decorate pumpkins for your Halloween display. Get family and friends involved in a trip to the pumpkin farm and consider hosting a decorating party. Whether you grew your own or plan on purchasing one at a farm or garden center, select pumpkins free of holes, cuts and soft spots for decorating. Damaged fruit tends to rot faster, ruining your fall display. And always carry the fruit cradled in your arms not by the stem. Once the stem breaks away from the fruit, the pumpkin is more susceptible to rot and its beauty fades....

    By Ryan Lovelace - The Washington Times - Saturday, October 26, 2019 Sen. Mitt Romney — aka Pierre Delecto — is far from the only Washington heavyweight who uses private social media account.

The 2019 survey was administered by Eric Raile of the Montana State University Human Ecology Learning and Problem Solving Lab; J...

    In this subseries of articles we shall depart a little from our usual format of spotlighting a particular ranch, farm, or enterprise and take up, rather, an aspect of Montana's history. One class of institutions persistently ran through the interviews and old photos that contributed to many of these paintings and brief histories. What would you guess it was? Oops! Darned if we didn't give away the answer in the title above. Yes, of course, schools, and small wonder that. In the normal course of...
