I am very pleased and honored to present you both with the President’s Volunteer Service Award.”

The President’s Volunteer Service Award was established in 2003 to recognize the importance of volunteers and their efforts. The award honors people who positively impact communities across the globe.

The award was accompanied by a letter from President Donald Trump, which stated, in part:

On behalf of a grateful Nation, I thank you for your service to your fellow Americans and those most in need. Through your dedicated service, you have ensured the continuation of America’s unparalleled commitment to improving the lives of others.

Week of September 4-10, 2020 www.thesampsonweekly.com 5 FAITH Not A Popularity Contest giving to the people of Israel. One day Jesus got alone with His closest followers and chose a few of them to become His specially designated associates. The gospel writer Mark says, “He appointed twelve that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach and to have authority to drive out demons” (Mark 3:14-15).

If we tried to list the disciple we would probably write down the same names that most people would remember. No doubt we would name Peter, and certainly Judas. Maybe we’d list the names Andrew, John and James. Very likely, that would be the end of our list of disciples we could recall. We might not even recognize the names Thaddaeus, Bar- tholomew, Simon the Zealot or James the son of Alphaeus.

We should understand that not every successful follower of Christ becomes famous. While some who make full-time commitments to serve the Lord will become well known while others who do just as much good work for the Kingdom of God will never be mentioned by the crowds. Not every pastor will have their own radio program, television show or even write a Christian book, but is that what God really requires from every minister of the Good News?

Mark 3:16-19, “These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Recognition and public acclaim are not the point to being a follower of Jesus Christ. Peter), James son of Zebedee and his brother John (to them he gave the name Boanerg- Whether people remember our names is no measure of success in Christ’s service. The es, which means “sons of thunder”), Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, only thing that matters is that God knows how you and I live and serve Him. So long as we James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed follow His commandments faithfully, we will receive the description of being successful. him.” You don’t have to become rich, powerful or famous be successful in God’s sight. Never forget that God measures achievement not in terms of public recognition, but in terms of Jesus’ ministry attracted such large crowds that it became hard for him to get away.

The serve the Lord in whatever capacity He calls you to do. crowds demanded to be near Him. Jesus needed a way to redistribute the ministry he was Since we are called to be faithful and not famous, then we should be ready to share the Gospel at any moment. Rehearse your testimony, pray for God to enable you to share in a loving way, and have a Bible or Gospel tract on hand in case a situation arises in your path. I believe that God will give his followers divine opportunities to share our faith or build relationships that will one day enable you to share. Even in the midst of our busy lives God is always about saving souls.

Consider the words of the apostle Paul found in 1 Corinthians 3:6-9, “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. He who plants and he who waters are one and each will receive his wages according to his labor. We are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building.” No matter if we are planting the seeds of the Gospel or watering what someone has already done, remember it is all done for the glory of God. At the end of the day, if we are doing it for our own glory then what we have planted will bare rotten fruit. Ken Smith

Each member of the senior class was “blessed” by his or her Senior Blesser in Harrells Senior a sweet ceremony held on the football field with a small group of parents and friends present. The tradition of every senior choosing an HCA teacher or faculty member to be his or her “blesser” began nearly twenty years ago and is an opportunity for every Blessing Ceremony senior to enter into a prayerful covenant with a trusted mentor who will walk along- side them throughout their senior year. Some of HCA graduates’ favorite memories involve the times shared with their Senior Blesser and the wisdom, advice, and love they received through this special bond.

“Our BLET program is intense and I’m able to see the fruition of hard work and dedication that Classroom Outside the students display on a daily basis. There are many times that students get overwhelmed because even though they are enrolled in BLET they still have life happening at home. Seeing the student accomplish this course with work, kids, life, and other responsibilities is astonishing because I know the effort and dedication that it takes to make it to graduation,” Davis expressed.

Sampson Community College hosts several healthcare programs, including Medical Assisting, Practical Nursing, and Associate Degree Nursing. Testing sites for all exams paid special attention to decrease seating capacity, monitor infection control, and screen before entering exam sites.

Students in the Medical Assisting (MA) program take a 200-item exam, where they are tested on general knowledge, mastery, and more. Medical Assisting students are certified through the American Association of Medical Assistants. All six graduates of the Medical Assisting program passed the exam, giving the program a 100% passing rate.
