Vol. 15, No. 85 Sunday, September 9, 2018 USPS 9400 / Cost .75 ¢ THE LORD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS By The Salvation Army

TEXAS CITY (September 2018) – Supporters of The Salvation Army were surprised to learn re- cently that the Groundbreaking ceremony they had on their calendar for the new Moody Family Corps Community Center had been changed into a ribbon cutting. “Life threw us a curveball,” Chris Doyle, Campaign Chair, shared with the crowd on September 6 at the Mainland Church of Christ. “Right as we were about to file for our construction permits, Pastor Robert Goolsby came to us and asked if we would be interested in purchasing this facility verses building one right beside it.” “I was a bit taken aback because we had been working on this project for over four years and I wanted to see it come to life,” recalls Doyle. “Captains Patrick and Jennifer Jones came to see me. Jennifer was convinced it was a sign from the Lord, and after a while, I came to believe it, PICTURED(VISIBLE), L-R: DOREEN HUGHES, CHRIS DOYLE, PHIL ROBERTS, too. CAPTAINS PATRICK AND JENNIFER JONES, RUTH RENDON, GINA SPAGNOLA, STEVE “My number one priority has always been to be a good steward of donor money. So although PATERSON, LEONARD WOOLSEY, ALLAN MATTHEWS this has a lot to do with faith, it is also true that costs have increased significantly since we put our original estimates together several years ago. We were looking at taking on debt with new construction. We met with Pastor Goolsby and the elders and agreed on a price to purchase that is fair to both of us. This transaction will sustain the Mainland Church of Christ for the future. I don’t ever want to see a great church like this leave a community of mine, and I believe in my heart that this transaction will keep them here into the future. I want to thank them for bringing us the opportunity. I believe it’s an opportunity for them as well.” Captain Patrick Jones told the crowd that the new facility will be used to reach out to the youth of the community, building their character so they can grow up to be fantastic citizens. The new community center will offer afterschool and summer day camp activities. Renovation of the facility will begin immediately. The Salvation Army hopes to be ready to offer services by mid-2019. Representatives from the City-LaMarque, Galveston and League City Chambers of Commerce were on hand for a joint ribbon cutting along with donors, elected officials, members of the Advisory Board and Women’s Auxiliary and a number of community partners. Hey Mikey’s provided ice cream for the celebrants. More than 60 people came out in the rain to mark the occasion. FRIENDS OF ROSENBERG CELEBRATES 78TH ANNIVERSARY Like the swallows returning to Capistrano, each year during the first weekend in October, the Friends of hosts it Annual Used Book Sale. For many Gulf Coast residents, the Book Sale is the highlight of the year, sort of a prelude to the Holiday season. The Friends group, celebrating its 78th anniversary this year, spends 52 weeks each year collecting books, records, DVDs, CDs, and other media treasures, then sorting, pricing, and storing them. Afterwards, in a frenzied flurry of activity the week before, members set up the book extravaganza on the second floor of Rosenberg Library, 2310 Sealy, Galveston. When the doors open to bibliophiles from all over, there is magic in the air. This year, the event is chaired by Helena Aucoin. The traditional Members Only Night kicks off the event on Thursday, October 4 from 5-7 pm. It provides members a chance to have the best picks of books in every genre. Those who are not members can join on the spot for a donation of $15 or more. On Friday, October 5, the sale runs from 12–6 pm. Books and materials in new, like-new, and excellent condition will be on sale in all genres, the most popular of which are history, science, children’s, cook books, art, religion, literature, popular fiction, how-to, poetry, and travel. The treasures section draws people who are looking for first editions, autographs, antiques, and one-of-a-kind items. Saturday, October 6, the sale continues from 10 am-4 pm with incredible bargains, some books available for only $1. This is a great opportunity to stock up on reading material for the entire year—and many customers do just that. Our books make wonderful gifts for friends, family, or yourself, and 100% of each purchase goes toward helping Rosenberg Library acquire new materials. In addition to books and media, the Friends sell souvenir ornaments featuring the Henry Rosenberg statue or the library building, itself. These Galveston icons make meaningful gifts for loved ones who have connections to the community. Book Sale patrons may pay for purchases using cash, credit cards, or Paypal. Mark your calendars for October 4-6, and whether you are a first-time shopper or a regular customer, a Galvestonian or a tourist, you are welcome to experience this extraordinary weekend at the library.

If this story sounds familiar, you’re probably one of the millions who viewed Morrow’s tearful reunion with Meg and Paty online. Morrow filmed the scene to share with his oldest son, but the footage quick- ly went viral. One version, posted on Facebook by website The Dodo, accumulated more than 39 million views. “It was kind of neat to see [people] falling in love with your animals,” Morrow said. “You know, I’ve loved them; they’re a part of my family.” It was the love between Morrow and his animals that captured the world’s attention. His video begins by showing Mor- row’s driveway, which was still largely flooded, three days after he had evacuated. As he trudged through knee-high water, Morrow pointed out debris like a set of stairs that had floated onto his property. Then he spotted Paty running to- ward him into the water. “Oh my God! There’s Paty!” Morrow suddenly screamed, audibly sobbing. “Paty! Oh my God, baby. How did you survive that?! … I know you’re so scared, baby.” Viewers online thought

She shares that passion by teaching painting on silk at the College of the Mainland 50 Plus Program in La Marque. During Texas City’s semiannual Art Walk from 5 to 9 p.m. Sept. 22, her artwork will be on display and for sale at the Art League gallery, 611 6th St. N. Moody, whose daughter Sharon Jones also hap- pens to be active in the Galveston Art League, tells more about her art below. Q: How did you start painting on silk? A: All my life I’ve created visually through drawing, painting, and photography. I discovered painting on silk with my sister-in-law, a seamstress. We learned how to paint on silk, and my first project was a dress I made for my 50th High School Reunion. I was hooked after that. Q: What materials and supplies are necessary? A: You need to wear protective clothing and vinyl gloves. You paint on silk fabric in yardage or you can purchase readymade silk scarfs. There are a variety of silk paints and dyes that can be used. These flow easily on the silk and do not leave any “hand,” or feel, when they’re heat-set. Watercolor brushes can be used for painting. Other supplies ― alcohol, water, salt, or gutta resist [a thick substance that creates boundaries for paint] ― produce various techniques. Silk needs to be supported on freezer paper or a frame for painting. Q: Where do you buy supplies? A: Supplies are available on the internet at Dharma Trading Co., Dick Blick, and other art suppliers. Texas Art Supply also carries many supplies. Q: Step through your process. A: The silk is washed and ironed, then attached suspended to a frame or ironed on freezer paper for painting. I might sketch a suggested image using light pencil or brush. I start with light color because any additional color will either darken or change the color underneath. After the painting is completed, the piece is allowed to rest for 24 to 48 hours. Then the fab- ric must be heat-set. Silk painted with silk paints are ironed; silk dyes are heat-set by steaming. The paint- ing can be framed under glass or wrapped on canvas. Q: Where do you find inspiration? A: I find nature inspiring. I often use my photos as reference for a painting. My favorite subjects are flowers, trees, seascapes, and landscapes. They are well-suited to painting impressionistic images. Q: You belong to the Galveston Art League, Na- tional Society of Artists, Silk Painters International, and Guild of Silk Painters.

More than 200 of our neighbors in Galveston

County are living in unhealthy and dangerous conditions and are still waiting for assistance. RSVP to Joe “Pops” Foley [email protected] by 9/10 or visit There IS more help coming. Our job is to find www.galvestoncountyrecovers.org every single person in need and assess what help they will require to repair and rebuild.

In Honor of All The First Responders Who Came To Our Aid That August Day. Let’s Put Harvey Behind Us and Finish The Job They started over one year ago.

What do I need to know before I come?

1. Come with a friend or you will be paired with another volunteer 2. Receive a 30 Minute Training on Assessing Homes 3. You will receive checklists on five nearby homes, pre-selected for you. 4. You & your partner will visit each home, one will complete the checklist while the other uses a cell phone to take pictures of home damage. 5. Once finished you will return to turn in the completed checklists and debrief.

Thanks to you, case managers will be able to identify our most vulnerable neighbors first (ie, Handicapped, Elderly, Low-Income, Unsafe Conditions) which will allow formal construction assessments to be done & supplies MYC Associates 59062 ordered and finally, volunteers will be recruited for repairing and PUBLIC AUCTION • ONSITE & ONLINE BIDDING Texas City Post rebuilding!
