Church dedicates new classrooms CHURCH continued from page 3 reality. In addition to new classrooms, the capital campaign has thus far funded a new drainage system, refinished hardwood floors in the sanctuary and provided new storage areas. Future renovation and maintenance projects are also in the plan. Oct. 18 is also the start-up of a new church school rotation titled “Dig Into The Bible.” The Art Room will become a scriptorium — a room in a monastery for copying, illustrating and reading manu- scripts. The children will try their hand at calligraphy while learning targeted verses in the Bible. In the Storyteller’s Room, children will sit around a camp- fire under the stars, understanding the importance of handing down the Bible stories. In the Game Room, groups will create a bookshelf of the 66 books of the Bible and learn a bit about each one through Bible baseball. In the Kitchen, the children will explore, bake, and taste foods from Bible times. For more information about WoRM, visit online at www.rotation.org.

Tips for fighting flu

(NAPS) In the fight against the flu, experts say common sense is a good defense against infection. Sensible steps include avoiding unnecessary physical contact such as shaking hands, hug- ging or kissing, and making sure to wash hands frequently and vigorously with soap and water. Avoiding contact reduces the chance of flu transmittal, while washing removes the virus from the hands and prevents its introduction into the mouth, eyes and especially the nose. The nose is a particularly vulnerable point of entry for the flu virus, which often lodges itself within mucus.
