The second week of the Advent Season focuses on peace. In the Beatitudes, Jesus lays out a series of blessings for those who follow him. These blessings are not for those who use only lip service to follow Jesus; these blessings are for those who practice the tenets and ordinances that Jesus laid out. Following the teachings of Jesus may not always be comfortable, because Jesus embraced some radical ideas about seeking the kingdom of heaven and loving one’s enemies.

Warm and pleasant greetings to all. We hope you are enjoying a good week. Last Tuesday, Blue Cane Little Hubbard Community Center was opened for voting in the runoff election for the District 24 Senate seat. Some people forgot about the runoff, or maybe it was the cold weather. Regardless, it’s important for all voters to participate in the election process. Voting day should be marked on your calendar as soon as you know. We congratulate and welcome Justin Pope to Tallahatchie County, which joins three other counties making up Senate District 24.

Each year they come. We can’t wait for them to get here. Lots of planning and extra effort around the house go into getting ready for our family Thanksgiving; and it is totally beyond worth it! Because Andrew and his wife Laura Ann are near us, we all pitch in with our son Daniel and his wife Jayme and daughters Gracie (17) and Addie (6) long distance in New Orleans to plan menus and things to do in the few days we can share around school and work.
