THIS WAS JANUARY? — Although many people in Milford, Syracuse, and North Webster had hoped to spend time with snow related activities last weekend, Mother Nature decided not to cooperate for the second week in a row.

Shown above in a double-exposure picture, the bank sign in Milford proved that a major thaw was underway, as the temperature at 8 a.m. on Saturday morning, Jan. 30, read 43 degrees. (Photo by nevin Dulabaum)

Registration begins for Cub Scout Day Camp

.Cub Scout packs and individual Cub Scouts in the Anthony Wayne Area Council, Boy Scouts of America, are registering now for the 1988 Cub Scout Day Camp and Long Term Camping to be held at different locations throughout the 11-county Boy Scout Council. Kosciusko County Day Camp will be held at Rising Arrow Reservation June 22-24. “Day camps are generally designed to meet the needs of the younger Cub Scout while the long term camps generally provide opportunities for those who have already been to a day camp. This does not limit the Scout by age or by the number of years of day camp attendance,” according to Jack Zeiger, year-round camp director. Many of the activities of the day camps and long term camps will be related to the achievements and electives of the Cub Scout advancement program, as well as such activities as aquatics, archery, games, hiking, obstacle course, sports, etc. The program of the day camp and long term camps is designed to meet the needs and intereists of individual boys, Zieger explained, and is a part of Scouting’s educational program for youth.

NORTHERN LAKES CHRISTIAN CHURCH Thorpe And Karen Mitchell Pastors “What’s The Catch?” by K. Mitchell If I offered you a contract that guaranteed you 100% success, you would first want to know: what, where, and why? The “what” is healing. The “where** is NOW, at our home, 6 P.M. Sundays, and the “why” is, it is God’s will for you to be healed and he told me to do it. Let me show you — stick with me a minute, I want you to see something. Acts 10:38 says, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power; who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.” First of all, it was God who. “anointed” Jesus with power. Second, it was through the “power” of the Holy Ghost that Jesus healed. It wasn’t until Jesus was baptized with water, that the Spirit descended and remained on him. It was then that his miracle ministry began. Before Jesus left this earth, he told his disciples and all those that believed on him, that they would “receive power after the Holy Ghost is come upon you.” (Acts 1:8) “And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost...” (Acts 2:14) ' Mark 16:16-20 says, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; .. . And these signs shall follow them that believe; . . . they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” Do you see what that says? It simply says, a believer, a believer is one that is saved and baptized, can lay hands on any sick person, and they shall recover. A simple statement; they shall recover if I do what? Lay hands on the sick ! What’s the catch? You have to find a “believer” who will lay hands on you in the name of Jesus and believe vou will recover. I am a believer. I believe if I lay my hands on you, you will recover. Now it’s up to you. The catch is, do you believe enough to come? Sunday Services 10 A.M. & t P.M. Wednesday Evening Service 7 P.M.
