It is so hard to believe we are about to start a new year. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! I know that people always said that time seems to go by faster as you age, and at the rate it seems to be moving now, it may just pass me by very soon.
Please check on any elderly people that live alone to make sure they have their needs met for some warm food and heat. See that your outdoor pets have fresh water daily and a warm place to sleep as well.
Montezuma sends out happy birthday wishes to Luke and Ian Fuqua on Dec. 28, Billy Joe VanCleve on Dec. 29 and Sinda Jones on. Jan 1.
We need more community involvement for our center and would like to invite people to join in. Annual renewal dues are $25 after your first initial year of joining. Membership dues need to be paid now to be considered an active member. We also take donations. Payments can be mailed to Edith Sills at 4475 Sunshine Rd, Henderson, TN 38340. We appreciate all our members and would like to have more events if we can get enough help to do so. Call Ann Moore at 608-2033 or myself if you have any new ideas for the center or wish to get involved. People who want to rent the community center should contact Betty Cooper at 731-879-9078 for booking. We ask those renting our facility to please follow our rules and show respect for the building. We try to keep it in the best order possible, and it takes everyone cooperating to make that happen. If you care about this community, please get involved in what is taking place to continue to grow our county and make it a better place to live and raise a family. Get to know what is changing in our local government, schools, churches and communities through the news, friends, your church, teachers, etc., and if it matters to you, there are ways to help make things better.
There is much spiritual warfare with society accepting things that go against who God is and what HIS laws are that we are to follow. Every day of life has its challenges but if we look to God for the right path, it can be a good one. Please pray for Melanie Pratt Hudson, Renee Jordan, Wesley Whitman, Imogene Naylor, Betty Cooper, Betty Sexton, Ruby Hannah, Mike Frank, Vicki Dickson, Donnie Brooks, Linda Plunk, Wayne and Lynn Frye, Lee Trice, Patricia Ledford, Mike Tedford, Clint Murley, Sherry Fletcher, Chuck Beacham, Sandra Lott, Faye Crouse, Janice Morris, Lisa Bishop, Jeanette Walker, Paul Schilling, Nancy Crouse and others that are sick or healing. We especially want to remember the families of Lillie “Lil” Emerson, Rebecca Hanna Kinchen, Kyle Jones, Bernice Maness, Robert “Bob” Cupples, Jr. and other families that have recently lost loved ones.
