Chase Wright Staff Writer The Elk City Rodeo of Champions begins on August 31st at the Beutler Brothers Arena in Elk City. This year marks the 80th annual return of one of the best rodeos in the country. Over the years, Elk City rodeo fans have witnessed numerous renowned riders like World Champion riders J.W. Harris, Will Lowe, Taos Muncy, and Fallon Taylor. Plus, competitors looking to get some great experience before the National Finals Rodeo in December flock to Elk City each year to compete. Last year, roughly 300 cowboys and cowgirls went boot to spur for nearly $64,000 in prize money. The arena, located in Ackley Park, sits next to some fun and historic family-friendly attractions: The Old Town Miniature Golf course, the Centennial Carousel, and the Choctaw Express Miniature Train. These attractions will be open throughout Labor Day weekend for all to enjoy before the Rodeo, which starts at 8 pm each night. The Elk City National Route 66 Museum Complex will also be open over the weekend, from 9 am to 5 pm on both Friday and Saturday, then from 2 pm – 5pm on Sunday.

Higher Ground Your life an investment

“Life is an investment. God planned it that way.” This quote from Wesley Duewel’s book, Measure Your Provided Life” suggests that what we sow into the lives of others, The CBA Jr High volleyball team won first runner up of the gold bracket in the Best of the West volleyball what we do with our resources, and how we conduct Jim Morrison tournament on Saturday in Clinton. Pictured are, front row, from left, Emili Henderson, Raigan Geisler; our lives, will reap an eternal reward, either good or bad. middle row, Emalia Lind, Chloe Nelson, Katelyn Gossen, Hannah Cooke; back row, Coach Erin Basinger, This life as compared to eternity lasts about 5 seconds. Elle Bittle, Delicity Walters, Camden Mendez and Coach Emily Dick. While we all tend to think that we are bullet proof; that surely life will go on as usual with no tragic circumstances, we are brought up short when we get a bad medical report, a heart-breaking phone call, or experience a broken relationship. The reality is that life can be and often is filled with pain. I recently visited two single mothers; each with three small children for which to provide not only the necessities of life but also the character traits and virtues that would allow them to be successful, productive adults, not repeating the generational cycle. The Ministerial Alliance was able to help with utility bills, I gave some counsel and materials but the struggle will be long. But God loves and longs to be not just a part of their lives but the sustaining center of all their days and nights. I recently heard a statement: “You never look into the eyes of someone that God does not love.” If that is true and the Scriptures certainly teach that, then we too are accountable to put that same kind of love into action. Two agencies in Weatherford that certainly demonstrate that love are the Agape Clinic and the Et Cetera Shop. With many volunteers, they meet a wide assortment of needs and put love into action. I received a check from a former student with the simple statement, “Expand the Kingdom.” I am responsible to be a good steward of that resource. I cannot spend it on myself. I carefully evaluate how to best use the money to advance the kingdom or demonstrate the love of Jesus. But in reality each of us has been given enormous resources with the same admonition, “Expand the Kingdom.” The Kingdom of God that the Scriptures refer to is the rule and reign of God in the lives of people. Too often we allow society, commercials, and our own desire for comfort and convenience cloud the issues. Life is an investment. How are you investing your resources? I recently received a letter from an inmate serving a life sentence. Expressing gratitude for the growth and instruction he had received from the Chains or Change program, he mentioned that he had attended a worship service and was planning to attend two inmate led Bible studies. He has been challenged to invest his life behind bars in the lives of people, many of whom have lost hope--- filled with resentment and bitterness. But these too need to experience the love of Christ. I leave you to ponder a strong statement from Duewel’s book and a Scripture verse to consider. “The person who has money to invest for God but fails to invest it is one of earth’s fools. Every person has a life to invest, time to invest, abilities to invest, money and possessions to invest.” “Remember this: Whoever Provided sows sparingly will reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will Corn Bible Academy JH and JV Cross Country competed at Rader Park in Weatherford Saturday Aug 25. also reap generously” (2 Corinthians 9:6) Pictured left to right is Andrew Clements, Coach Brendon Schimdt, Kennedy Pool, Lizzie Kuak, Sofia To comment: [email protected] Schmidt, and Emalia Lind.
