THE BOARD OF ED will be showing a movie TODAY Sunday October 27th at 4:00 that is called 25 Hill. Plot- 12 year-old Trey Caldwell (Nathan Gamble) is shattered when his soldier father is killed in Afghanistan, leaving a hole in the boy’s life – and an unfinished Soap Box Derby car in the garage. A final gift from his dad, the car is a constant reminder of all that could have been. But when Trey meets Roy Gibbs (Corbin Bernsen), a grizzled Fire Chief devastated by the loss of his firefighter son on 9/11, a new relationship forms and old wounds finally begin to heal. As the unlikely team works to complete the Soap Box car and train for the upcoming Derby, they’ll learn that life isn’t about the starting line or checkered flag – it’s about having the courage to make the incredible journey of faith in between. Please join us, we will be serving popcorn.

THANK YOU my dear friends at St. Paul who remembered me with such beautiful cards and notes for my “Surprise “ 80th birthday on Oct.13th. It was wonderful hearing from each of you. I cherish the times we had together while we were living in Freeman such as the services at ST Paul with the beautiful choir music, the Bible Study, the coffee hour. LWML, Ladies Aid, and of course the annual bazaar. Hopefully I can see many of you at the bazaar this Nov. God has truly blessed me in these 80 years and I pray that He will continue to shower His blessings upon you as well. Gratefully, Marlene Geidel
