    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • FROM PASTOR DAVE… I Don’T Know About You but Every Once in a While I Get This Overwhelming Feeling That I Have to Start Getting Into Shape Again
    501 NW 16th Street, Grand Rapids, Minnesota 55744 (218) 326-8508 www.saintand.org November 2016 FROM PASTOR DAVE… I don’t know about you but every once in a while I get this overwhelming feeling that I have to start getting into shape again. I know that I might be overly optimistic by even thinking that it’s still possible, but hey – you’ve got to give me some credit! After all “it’s the thought that counts.” And yet, I realize that I have to do more than think about getting into shape, I’ve got to do something too. I’ve got to start getting into shape physically. I’ve been pondering this for some time. My daughter lovingly reminds me that I haven’t lost the measly 4 pounds I wanted to lose about a year ago. About a month ago, I had a sort of wakeup call when my brother Peter had a heart attack and then triple bypass surgery. He’s the closest living thing to me physically and genetically. Both male. Both products of our mom and dad. Yes, I received that wake up call, but will I get up and answer the call? I’m recommitting to eating smaller portions, and not checking out what may be in the church kitchen when I get the munchies. Whenever possible, I’m going home for lunch, and spending time exercising on my NordicTrack ski machine. (I prefer “exercising” to “working out.” The latter sounds too much like work.) It takes about a couple of hours in the middle of my day, to get home, change, exercise, shower, grab a sandwich and get back to the church.

The impulse to define “me” or “us” against an “other” has been dis- cussed by writers and thinkers as diverse as Aristotle, Plato, Jacques Lacan, Frantz Fanon, Julia Kristeva, Stephen King, and Octavia But- ler, among others. Moreover, the impulse seems to predate the human tradition of writing our thoughts down for posterity.

Eight desks. Eight lists. One teacher. The lesson? Become everything your list says you are. Tallin Ramsay likes the colour pink, cashmere sweaters, strawberry jam, makeup, and being right. Agent: Silvia Molteni At least, that’s what it says on her list. On submission: Spring 2021 When Tallin is driven to a pointed house in the middle of the woods, she has no memory of her life before. Age: 14+ There is only now – the pointed house, seven other Genre: Psychological thriller teenagers who wait inside, and a man who calls himself the Teacher. He says he’s going to help all of them remember who they used to be. He says they each have a list; black print typed neatly onto white pages, which reveal their likes, their dislikes, and their fears. The Teacher gives the students only one simple task, surrounded by woods and snow and nothing: check everything off their lists, one by one, until they become them. But it only takes one bite of a cracker with sticky strawberry jam for Tallin to realize: she is nothing like her list. None of them are. After graduating from Colorado State University, Marissa Howard worked as the speech writer for a prominent dignitary and had hundreds of articles published in local newspapers.

    Pinnacle Sequoyah High School Literary Magazine 2020 through 2021 Cover Art by Briana Redner 1 My dear reader, Thank you for picking up this magazine. This project is the culmination of this class's best pieces. Hours were spent on these creations, these extensions of self, and for you to open this magazine and read this message, means so much to us. So go on, and enjoy! --Dominic Lattanzio, Co-Chief Editor This magazine is the result of long, caffeine-filled nights filled with swimming words and splitting headaches. The pieces it contains are the results of the inner emotions of a classroom of writers. Personally, Lit Mag has been a place of growth, a sanctuary, an outlet from the onslaught of the outside world. Looking back on old pieces of mine not only shows me how immensely my writing has grown; it shows me how I have grown. I want to thank Dr. Murphy and this class for both these areas of growth, for offering the timid fourteen-year-old I once was an outlet. So, reader, as you flip through our magazine, be aware that each piece contains a piece of its author. Read them, listen to them, and you will hear each author’s story.

  • Serve * Survive * Surmount This Present Age
    St. Paul African Methodist Episcopal Church Rev. Ellis I. Washington, Pastor Adult Church School SERVE * SURVIVE * SURMOUNT THIS PRESENT AGE A compilation of online devotionals and video clips for study. Day 1: SPIRITUAL WAR “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:12 “As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.” Ephesians 2:1-2 “Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out.” John 12:31 Although Satan is the ruler of this world, believers are saved from his darkness. “For he (God) has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” Colossians 1:13-14 So this struggle, this spiritual war, is against Satan and his schemes. Schemes which he has been trying to refine for thousands of years. He attacks us, he oppresses us, and he comes to “kill, steal and destroy!” (John 10:10) The good news is God has given us a way to protect ourselves in the midst of this war. Jesus defeated every enemy when He died on the cross and conquered the grave three days later.
