Making Connections Religious weddings

Posted: November 4, 2009 6 a.m.

Two messages have landed on my desk over the past couple of days. Both are requests from couples wanting to be married in our congregation’s sanctuary. No one in either of these couples belongs to our church. I know none of them. In our office we label these nonmember weddings.

This ministry does not support Halloween or Halloween substitutes. We don’t sell costumes or replicas of demons or witches, etc., and you may be wondering why.

Remembering Rogers: A stroll down First Street

Posted: October 7, 2009 6 a.m.

An entire book could be written about each of the historic buildings on First Street. However, for an interesting walking tour down the street, I will relate some of the highlights of the exciting stories of each site. Many of the original buildings still house thriving businesses, but sadly, some of them are gone and only a parking lot remains.
