Yes, it is the celebraon of a Chrisan holiday, but Christmas has trans-­‐ cended that parameter,. Christmas has become the season of hope, there is no insult to other creeds or faiths it is a welcome, to all, to celebrate with us the our hope for the future. The future, with “wars, and rumor of wars”, dire prediconsman of destroying the earth, the earth destroying man, the world’s economy going off the cliff, and of course, predicons of the end of the Earth, by a civilizaon long gone. Things have become so dire, so divisive, we are so helpless to stop the world events, one might think it is 1931, the start of the Great Depression, or 1933 with the rise of Fascism, Buchido, and Communism that would see millions of people slaughtered. One might think it think it was 1917 when most of the world was slaughtering each other in the “War to End All Wars”. For Americans one might think it was 1776 when most of our Army died of cold and starvaon at Valley Forge, or 1777, when it was all repeated at Morristown, it might 1862 when sixty thousand Americansied d at Anetam, or maybe 1941 when America watched as the Japanese ran rampant through the Pacific, thousands of our men killed and captured. But each of those Christmases, no maer how bleak, we had hope for the future, “Merry Christmas” those years was almost a prayer rather than a greeng. And the hopes were realized, four years aer Morristown the Brish surrendered, four years aer Pearl Harbor, the war had ended. Each me the world looked bleakest, hope was on the horizon, just out of sight, that is why “Merry Christmas” will survive, it gives us that hope, no maer your faith or tenet, Protestant, Catholic, Jew, even atheist, those two words provide hope for us all. I have read that my Irish Ancestor’s wish at Christmas was that the Vikings would come no more, one year they got their wish. So to all of you, even the Vikings, I wish you a “Merry Christmas.” For the Regiment Anything, Anyme, Anywhere VR Jack Tobin President Special Forces Associaon J. K.

Page 2 Pastor Butch’s Corner Rising Above Our Limitaons Lizzie Johnson made thousands of bookmarks. At thirteen Lizzie injured her back in an accident, and she was to spend the rest of her life, twenty-seven more years, flat on her back. Her only view of the worldm was fro a mirror mounted above her head. But she sll wanted to do a great thing with her life, so when she heard in those days that you could free an African slave for $40, she made a quilt and tried to sell it for $40. Nobody would buy it. So she turned to making bookmarks, and she raised $1,000 a year for each of the twenty-seven years remaining in her life. She gave every penny of that to projects in this world that go to building up rather than tearing down. What about the quilt? One day a bishop from India was traveling through Illinois and she gave it to him. He took that quilt with him on his speaking tour around the country, and he told the story of Lizzie Johnson. Then he asked people if they would place an offering for missions in the quilt. He raised $100,000 for missions. You talk about how God creates miracles through modest efforts! One day aer Lizzie Johnson had died, her sister,ohnson, Alice J heard that a man named Takuo Matsumoto was coming to Champaign, Illinois, to speak. He was one of the most prominent Japanese Chrisans aer the Second World War. He had been principal of the Methodist Girls’ School in Hiroshima during the bombing. In John Hersey’s book about tragedy, he is menoned prominently as one of the heroes of those days. Alice Johnson remembered that her sister had given money to supportducaon thee of a young boy in Japan named Takuo Matsumoto, and she wondered if this was the same person. She resolved to go Champaign to hear him speak, but she got sick that day and had to stay home. That night someone told Mr. Matsumoto about her, and he said, “You mean that she is Lizzie Johnson’s sister? All that I am I owe to Lizzie Johnson.” That night he went to see Alice Johnson, and he went from there to the cemetery to put flowers on the grave of a woman who could not leave her bed, who was weak and helpless, but who stched up her love in bookmarks and quilts and said, “Thank you, God,” by loving others. Limitaons do not have to limit; if we don’t let them. Maurice Trow (Red) Davis Jr Maurice Trow Davis Jr. passed away in Portland, Oregon on Thursdayctober O 11, 2012 at the age of 81.

  • Monday 25 July 2016, London. Ahead of Kirk Douglas' 100Th Birthday This
    Monday 25 July 2016, London. Ahead of Kirk Douglas’ 100th birthday this December, BFI Southbank pay tribute to this major Hollywood star with a season of 20 of his greatest films, running from 1 September – 4 October 2016. Over the course of his sixty year career, Douglas became known for playing iconic action heroes, and worked with the some of the greatest Hollywood directors of the 1940s and 1950s including Billy Wilder, Howard Hawks, Vincente Minnelli and Stanley Kubrick. Films being screened during the season will include musical drama Young Man with a Horn (Michael Curtiz, 1949) alongside Lauren Bacall and Doris Day, Stanley Kubrick’s epic Spartacus (1960), Champion (Mark Robson, 1949) for which he received the first of three Oscar® nominations for Best Actor, and the sci- fi family favourite 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (Richard Fleischer, 1954). The season will kick off with a special discussion event Kirk Douglas: The Movies, The Muscles, The Dimple; this event will see a panel of film scholars examine Douglas’ performances and star persona, and explore his particular brand of Hollywood masculinity. Also included in the season will be a screening of Seven Days in May (John Frankenheimer, 1964) which Douglas starred in opposite Ava Gardner; the screening will be introduced by English Heritage who will unveil a new blue plaque in honour of Ava Gardner at her former Knightsbridge home later this year. Born Issur Danielovich into a poor immigrant family in New York State, Kirk Douglas began his path to acting success on a special scholarship at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City, where he met Betty Joan Perske (later to become better known as Lauren Bacall), who would play an important role in helping to launch his film career.
