  • January 2017—The Americans Are Coming! Rachel Yates, Associate
    January 2017—The Americans are coming! Rachel Yates, Associate Director of Program Presbyterian World Mission U.S.-Russian relations occupy the news. Diplomatic tensions are rising, along with concerns about resurgence of the nuclear arms race. In some respects, this political rift is not new. For decades, these two superpowers have flexed their geopolitical muscle, often seemingly divided along irreconcilable ideological grounds. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), however, has chosen to bridge that divide with a twinning project that pairs U.S. and Russian congregations that commit to work, pray and worship together. Regional Liaison Ellen Smith leads the Russia-U.S. twinning program for Presbyterian World Mission. Now more than ever, she urges Presbyterian congregations to deepen their ties with Christians in Russian through our global partners. She works hard to pair similar congregations to minimize power differentials or theological friction. Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church in St. George, Utah, joined the twinning program two years ago and was paired with Word of Life Church in Dorogobuzh, Russia. After several email exchanges, the U.S. partners traveled to Dorogobuzh to meet their Russian counterparts. They politely exchanged greetings and information during worship and over tea, all in good diplomatic fashion. The meeting, however, took a turn after an evening prayer meeting when one Russian summoned the courage to ask these new U.S. partners what they meant by the oft-used term “partnership.” Smith shared what happened next. “We talked about praying for one another, helping one another and encouraging one another. We talked about our need for one another, for fellowship across the boundaries the world creates, and that we had come to them not as Americans, but as Christians.

A brief history of the facility is reproduced below from the DHHS website at: http://dhhs.ne.gov/Documents/GIVHHistory.pdf History of the Grand Island Veterans’ Home Nebraska’s oldest and largest home was established in 1887. The following is an excerpt taken from the Senate Journal of the Legislature of the State of Nebraska Twentieth Regular Session held in Lincoln on January 4, 1887: “WHEREAS, There are many old soldiers in Nebraska who, from wounds or disabilities received while in the union army during the rebellion, are in the county poorhouses of this state; therefore be it RESOLVED, That it is the sense of this Senate that a suitable building be erected and grounds provided for the care and comfort of the old soldiers of Nebraska in their declining years; RESOLVED, That a committee of five be appointed to confer with a committee of the House on indigent soldiers and marines to take such action as will look to the establishment of a State Soldiers’ Home.” Legislative Bill 247 was passed on March 4, 1887 for the establishment of a soldiers’ home and the bill stipulated that not less than 640 acres be donated for the site. The Grand Island Board of Trade had a committee meeting with the citizens of Grand Island to secure funds to purchase land for the site of the home.

    FOUR GENERATIONS, DESCENDANTS • PERRY ^24.DE^WilPM. Calibrated Their Fiftieth Wedding Anniversary. MRS. PHILIP LEPPLA. Mr. and Mrs. Philip Leppla of this place celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary at their pleasant home here last Sunday. Owing to the recent death of their youngest daughter, Mrs. Carl L. Gale of Columbus, which occurred a few days ago, the affair was celebrated in a quiet and unostentatious manner, only the immediate family being present. This aged couple were united in marrirge at Canton, Ohio, November 6, 1854, by Rev. Herbruck, a Lutheran minister. Mrs. Leppla, whose maiden name was Louise Ittner, was 16 years of age and her hus­ band 26. Thirteen children were born to this union, three dying in infancy; the eldest son, Godfrey, died about three years ago, and the youngest daughter, Mrs. Gale, three weeks ago. The eight living children are Mrs. Wm. A. Gerber, Mrs. C. Kaemmerer and George Leppla of Columbus; William and Charles Leppla of Barber ton; Mrs. GK W. Weimer, Mrs. A. G. Schmidt and Philip Leppla, Jr., of this place. There are nineteen grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Mr. Leppla was born in Bavaria, Germany, May 13,1828, of Lutheran parent­ age, and came to America in 1849, locating at Winesburg, where he carried on the business of blacksmithing, which he followed until about ten years ago. Mrs. Leppla was born at Winesburg, October 6, 1838. In 1859 they located in Millersburg, since which time they have made their | home here.

  • The Fighting Mccooks Review Ccwrt
    Book Review: The Fighting McCooks: America’s Famous Fighting Family. Charles and Barbara Whalen. Bethesda MD: Westmoreland Press, 5301 Portsmouth Road, Bethesda MD 20816. 2006. 421 pages, $16.95, paperbound. <http://www.thefightingmccooks.com/>. Reviewed by Dan Reigle for the Cincinnati Civil War Roundtable website and for the Ohio Civil War Genealogy Journal . All rights reserved by the author. The McCook family statistics are summarized in this statement from the book’s title page: “Seventeen McCooks fought for the North in the Civil War: three major generals, three brigadier generals, one naval lieutenant, four surgeons, two colonels, one major, one lieutenant, one private, and one chaplain. Four gave their lives to save the Union.” The numbers, in themselves, are an indication that the McCooks were an extraordinary Civil War-era family, but the numbers do not adequately convey the extent to which these seventeen men, along with their spouses and other relatives, were a fascinating, diverse, and highly accomplished group of individuals. Charles and Barbara Whalen have done justice to these men and their families by presenting engaging and stimulating biographical sketches of each of the seventeen men, woven efficiently into a narrative approximating the chronological context of the war. The authors devote a very worthwhile chapter to the early history of the McCooks in America, from their Scots-Irish patriarch, George McCook, who emigrated from Ireland in 1790 after he participated in an unsuccessful attempt to overthrow the English that could have resulted in his execution for treason. Settling in western Pennsylvania, George was an active full participant in the Whiskey Rebellion until President Washington extinguished the rebellion in 1794.

  • March 2017—Mission 180: Transformative Mission
    March 2017—Mission 180: Transformative Mission Rachel Yates, Associate Director of Program Presbyterian World Mission Presbyterian World Mission celebrates 180 years of international mission service this year. From its inception until now, much has changed. Over 180 years, we have done a 180-degree turn in how we understand our role in God’s mission. Our earliest missionaries were sent to teach, preach and heal. Presbyterian mission outposts were known for these three pillars: schools, churches and hospitals. Faithful missionaries took their understanding of what it meant to be disciples of Christ across the globe, laying the foundation for the churches that we now count as partners in mission. More than 94 million Christians today claim the heritage of these efforts. Today we engage more intentionally in a ministry of partnership, recognizing that our partners have as much to offer us as we have to give them. With respect, mutuality and interdependence, we celebrate the 180-degree transformation that begins in our shared grace in Jesus Christ. We affirm humbly that the transformation of communities and lives that we witness together in mission is not a result of our effort, but the real presence of God at work in our midst. With joy, we accept the call to work together in mission—as mission co-workers. As part of our 180th anniversary, we declare a Mission 180 of a church reformed, and always reforming. The work of early Presbyterian visionaries continues to bear fruit today. In 1899, Dr. Horace B. Silliman, a retired New York businessman, petitioned the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions, with the conviction that the Filipino people needed a new kind of education.
