Receives a letter from Mrs. Obama
Dear Editor,
A few weeks ago a letter was mailed to my home from Mrs. Michelle Obama. Contained in the envelope was a panoramic style photograph of President Obama, Mrs. Obama and their two daughters. The purpose of the letter was to ask for a donation for her husband’s reelection. The idea of her using pictures of her family to promote their agenda struck a nerve with me. [Full Story »]

Requests help with stray animals
Dear Editor,
My name is Jodi Phillips, I reside in Reidsville, and I am employed as the office manager for Nunez Pine Straw in Baxley. I have been working here since the end of May. In the few short months that I have been here, I have noticed a lot of stray dogs being left for the animal shelter, which is located directly behind our office. In the past month, there have been four puppies left and they run around our office as well as the mobile homes searching for food.
I was able to take one of them to the shelter one day when I saw the Animal Control officer driving by. (I had called the day before about it and he never stopped by.) A week later, there were two more puppies here, fortunately, I, myself was able to find them homes! Today, there is another one. I have not seen the Animal Control officer go by our office since last week. I can hear the dogs in the back barking whenever employees go to the water treatment plant. [Full Story »]

God is a God of Order
Dear Editor and to the Body of Christ,
God began speaking to me concerning the Body of Christ. God began to say unto me, He said, Son, Everybody cannot be an Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor or Teacher. He said to me these are “Gifts” of working for the ministry. [Full Story »]
