In Memoriam
In loving memory of
Tora “Joanne” Cooper
Oct. 6, 1976 - June 25, 2008
It’s been one year since you left us and we miss you so much.
Your smile, laughter and your will to help everyone.
We know we can’t question God, but it hurts so bad;
Because we don’t understand why.
But if we keep the faith and do His will, we shall meet again.
Your Family

Focus on Good News
While it is certainly a good thing to be knowledgeable about current events, it’s some
times helpful to focus on the “good” news we hear, rather than the latest “bad” news
like stories which focus on violence, criminality, war and brutality. This is likely to bia
our perspective on the world and make us feel as if we live in a more hostile and darn
ous environment than we really do, and that alone is a good reason to occasionally take a
break from this type of news. There are plenty of interesting pieces in your paper that focus
on positive developments, community activities and even “the funnies”. All news is important,
but it’s also important to keep much of the bad news we hear in perspective. If it takes our
minds off of more important things, the eternal things, then all this news is nothing but a stress
provoking distraction. So perhaps, we should consider periodically fasting from bad news;
maybe once every week or so. We might even be surprised to find that this actually improves
our quality of life.
So we know and believe the love God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love
abides in God, and God abides in him. R.S.V. 1 John 4:16
