It will take a while to learn to write 2020 instead of 2019 after all you did write 2019 for 365 days. Now what can we all do this year? If you are the organizer which some of my friends are and they are very good at it. Before you throw out those clothes that you have not worn in a year see if you can donate it to a shelter. We have several places to donate in DeKalb County. Some places will accept clothes and furniture some even appliances. Try and find a good use for the things you no longer wear or use. I tend to always go through my food pantry and find that can or box of something that expired long ago and throw that out. Medicines is another thing to go through but please dispose of it at a Drug Take Back the DeKalb County Drug Coalition have several of these days just call their office and see when the next one will be. If you happen to go through your sheets, towel and such you can donate them to your local veterinarian’s office or the animal coalition they can always use these items. Also there is a clothing and shoe drop off box located at the front of the DeKalb County Complex.

Please keep in prayer: the family of Jo Ann Page, the family of Jimmy Oakley, the family of Frances Stults, and the family of Tom Meadows.

Everyone have a blessed day.

A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. The rich and the poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all. Proverbs 22: 1, 2
