Bill allowing Ohio schools more time for spring tests passes COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — After a year of learning upended by the pandemic, Ohio students would have extra time to take state-mandated tests under an emergency measure passed unanimously Wednesday by the Ohio House. The GOP-controlled Senate approved some ﬁnal changes to the school measure before sending it back to the House where it passed in a rare 92-to-0 vote days before the testing windows begin. “I support any ﬂexibility we can give to schools as we continue to address the pandemic’s impact on the students and families they serve,” Democratic Sen. Teresa Fedor said in a statement after the bill’s passage. The bill now heads to Gov. Mike DeWine’s desk where a spokesperson says he will sign it into law. The revised version of the bill includes the emergency clause, which ensures the measure takes effect this school year. The latest version also See SCHOOLS | 2 OHIO VALLEY — More than 20 percent of the population in Mason, Meigs and Gallia Counties have received at least one dose of the COVID19 vaccine according to numbers provided by the state health departments on Thursday. The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources reports 5,984 total doses have been administered to Mason County residents as of Thursday. The website states that 22.6 percent of the population has had one dose administered.

A total of 4,019 people (13.44 percent of the population) have completed the vaccine process. In Meigs County, ODH reports 4,966 people have started the vaccine process, which is 21.68 percent of the population. A total of 2,019 people have completed the vaccine process (12.71 percent of the population). In Ohio, people age 40 and order, along with those with certain medical conditions will be eligible to be vaccinated as of Friday morning. All Ohio residents age 16 and older will be eligible as of March 29, announced Governor Mike DeWine earlier this week.

FITCH CHESHIRE — Carole Ann Fitch, 69, of Cheshire, Ohio, died on Wednesday, March 17, 2021, at her residence. Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 20, 2021, in the Cremeens-King Funeral Home, Pomeroy with Bob Price ofﬁciating. Interment will follow in the Poplar Ridge Cemetery. Friends may call two hours prior to the service at the funeral home. Those in attendance are asked to follow the Ohio mandate of wearing face masks. Schools From page 1 gives juniors and seniors the ability to substitute ﬁnal course grades for results from end-of-course tests taken this school year for graduation purposes. The measure will also exempt schools from administering the typically required American history exams. Ohio lawmakers initially wanted to seek a federal waiver to skip required tests for the second straight year, but federal education ofﬁcials indicated that wouldn’t be an option. They say the tests are needed to help understand and address the pandemic’s impact on learning. Instead, they’re offering some ﬂexibility on when and how it’s done, and say states can apply to be exempt from certain accountability measures linked to the results. The Ohio proposal would direct state ofﬁcials to seek that exemption. While Fedor, a Toledo Democrat, applauded the passage of the ﬁnal version of the bill, she said the state should stop focusing on tests “that provide narrow data of limited use” of a student’s abilities. Instead, she said, Ohio “should give schools tools to invest in quality time with students, supplemental tutoring, and the implementation of enrichment and wellness programs.” advisory, meeting only one indicator.

It is Psalm 51:10, “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” King David wrote these words. You remember David, don’t you? He was the shepherd boy that killed Goliath, the Giant, and later God made him king of Israel. David loved God with all his heart, but David still made misAnn takes – sometimes big mistakes in fact. Moody David realized he had sinned and done Contributing wicked and bad things in God’s sight, columnist so David went to God. He prayed and said, “O God, I have sinned against You, and I have done evil things in Your sight. Create in me a clean heart and give me a right spirit.” Sometimes you and I do bad things too. We might have done things that we knew better than to do, but we did them anyway. It makes not only us sad but God too. Maybe we have things like bitterness, anger, jealousy, selﬁshness, pride, or greed in our hearts. When we come to church, everything about us may look great to other people, but God knows and sees what we have in our hearts and the wrong things we have done. We need to take David’s example for ourselves and pray to God and say like David, “O God, create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit within my heart.” God will be overjoyed to ﬁx it for us because He loves us so much! Let’s thank Him for that in our prayer this week. Father, we know You can see what is in our hearts and minds. We also know we make mistakes and there are things that shouldn’t be there. Please forgive us and create in us a heart and mind with only good things in it. Then our spirit will be right as well. In Jesus’ name we pray these things. Amen.

St. Peter’s Episcopal welcomes new Priest and new service times At Sunday services on Feb. 14, 2021, the congregation of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church (541 2nd Avenue, Gallipolis) welcomed the Rev.

Friday, March 19, 2021 3 When there is trouble, there is help In the past year, if your experience is like mine, it seems that trouble is often manifested with which to deal. That is why the Word of God is such a valuable asset that serves as a source of encouragement and instruction. For example, the Psalmist lamented that, because of his particular problems, his heart was overwhelmed. Do you ever feel as though your heart is over-whelmed with a bevy of troubles? Despite the frustration of constant suffering, he knew that, when there is trouble, there is help. Therein is the encouragement. But, such encouragement is qualiﬁed by two personal responses that serve to tap into the help. Consider the spiritual insight he gained about, which he imparts to us. First, there is help for troubles that seem to overwhelm us — when we turn to God. The fact that he knew there was help only as he turned to God is clariﬁed when he said, “When my heart is overwhelmed , lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” By turning to God for Christ provides help, the Psalmhigher and lasting ist realized that results. he could be lifted But, there is a above the scope second qualiﬁer of his problems. for tapping into By standing on help when trouble the wisdom and comes that the solutions of God Ron Psalmist came to can anyone ever Branch truly possess the Contributing realize.

It is noted about spar- ment to God as a part of the process for gaining rows that, when their help when he stated, nest is torn down, it “For thou, O God, hast will rebuild in the same location.

How many times Herein lies a conhave you attempted to sideration that always rebuild your dreams must be prioritized. If and expectations only to have them torn down you want the good of God, then you must over and again? Next be committed to God. time, build higher! As the spiritual rock, Jesus The Psalmist clariﬁed it when he stated, “Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.” In other words, it was only after having turned to God and having committed to God that he began to experience the good of God like many others experienced. What commitments does he suggest we make? One is found in the necessity of being faithful to worship in the House of God. We need to worship God in committed fashion. But, the Scripture makes it clear that, we not only need to faithfully worship the Lord, but His gracious help is distinctly tied to faithful worship. Another is found in the commitment to mercy and truth, “which may preserve.” We are advantaged best only when we embrace the principles, purposes, and plans of God’s good will and mercy for our lives. Far better it is to deal with troubles from the advantage God gives. Pastor Ron Branch lives in Mason County and is pastor of Hope Baptist Church, Middleport, Ohio.

My guitar pick has broken. My pickup battery has died. I’ve started singing in the wrong key. One time, my guitar string snapped and almost hit my sister in the face. I’ve even led with blood running down my ﬁngers. But what happened this past Sunday might be the best mistake I’ve ever made while leading worship. I was singing the third verse of “Living Hope” by Phil Wickham, and the congregation sang along. Before long, it was time to return to the chorus. Now, the pianist and I had decided to sustain the D chord for a measure before resuming the chorus. But the congregation got ahead of us. In fact, they engulfed us. They sang so loudly that I went services by readalong with them, ing a Psalm.

Sure, someone can read That’s why I begin our the Bible without being “pierced to the heart.” But to read the Bible as God calls us to read the Bible only comes through the Holy Spirit. On the ﬂip side, the Spirit’s revelation to us is given to us through the Word. To emphasize the Holy Spirit apart from the Word leads people away from Christ. Why? Because the Spirit is not at odds with the Word. Rather, the Spirit seeks to glorify Christ by illuminating Scripture to us. After all, the Bible is authored by the Spirit’s illumination to begin with. Tim Challies writes, “In brief, then, revelation is from God to man, inspiration is man to paper, and illumination is paper to man.

Cleveland Browns bolster secondary, officially add safety Johnson CLEVELAND (AP) — There’s still work to be done with the front of Cleveland’s defense. The back just got a whole lot better. The Browns made their agreement with free agent John Johnson III ofﬁcial on Wednesday, adding the safety to a secondary that was ravaged by injuries in 2020 and lacked a seasoned leader. Johnson spent the past four years with the Los Angeles Rams. He led them with 105 tackles last season and had one interception for the NFL’s toprated defense. Johnson agreed on Monday to a three-year, $33.75 million contract that included $24 million guaranteed. The Browns also announced their agreement with defensive end Takk McKinley. He’s getting a one-year, $4 million from Cleveland, which tried three times to claim him off waivers last season but couldn’t land the 2017 ﬁrstround pick. And Wednesday night, the Browns reached an agreement with wide receiver Rashard Higgins, one of quarterback Baker Mayﬁeld’s favorite targets, on a one-year, $2.3 million contract. The popular Higgins tested free agency before returning to Cleveland. Higgins caught 37 passes for 599 yards and four touchdowns last season. After his 2019 season was limited to six games by a shoulder injury, Johnson rebounded by not missing a play in the Rams’ 16 regular-season games and two playoff games. He was one of just four safeties in the league to not miss a play. McKinley had 13 sacks in his ﬁrst two seasons with Atlanta, but his production fell off and he was released after four games last season as he dealt with a groin injury. He had been with the Raiders after failing physicals with Cincinnati and San Francisco. The Browns see potential in the 25-year-old McKinley, who will start with a clean slate under Stefanski. The Browns showed interest in star J.J. Watt before he signed with Arizona. They were expected to make a run at one of the big-name free agent edge rushers in free agency to pair with AllPro Myles Garrett.

CRANKSHAFT 3 8 6 7 9 �NEWS/WEATHER 8 Friday, March 19, 2021 What is the right thing to do here? From page 3 the word of Christ dwell in you richly …” (Col. 3:16) because our worship must be fueled by the Word as displayed to us by the Spirit. And this leads to what Paul says next. Our dwelling on the Word should lead to congregational singing. He says, “… teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God” (Col. 3:16). You see, when we sing together as the people of God, we encourage one another. We remind one another of God’s promises. We consider together His faithfulness. In 1 Corinthians 14, Paul writes, “What then, brothers? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for building up” (v. 26 ESV). Congregational singing results in mutual ediﬁcation. The parallel passage for Colossians 3:16 is Ephesians 5:18-19 where Paul says, “… be ﬁlled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart” (ESV). Notice how Paul mentions “Spirit” rather than “Word” here. But remember, the two are not at odds. Our worship, then, should point to Christ by dwelling on the Word by the power of the Spirit. And this, in turn, fuels congregational singing from the heart. A kind of singing that ediﬁes our brothers and sisters in Christ. So, I’m not upset about the mistake I made on Sunday. In fact, I hope the congregation sings loud enough to throw me off again and remind me that our worship is not a performance. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about musical excellence and good sound quality. But those things must never result in the loss of congregational singing. And it’s not just congregational singing. It’s singing fueled by the Word in the Spirit’s power for the glory of Christ.

WEATHER One of the ways that we see that the world hasn’t changed much since the days of Jesus’ earthly ministry, is the way that the behavior and obvious inward struggle of Pilate, a Roman ofﬁcial charged with the governance of Judea, reﬂects the way we feel torn between what we feel is right versus what others demand of us. It is not likely that Pilate was a particularly noble person (from the Bible and other historical sources, he seems to be quite the opposite actually, brutally efﬁcient in his enforcement of Roman rule). But as Jesus closes in on the culmination of His mission of dying on the cross, the account shared with us in Mark 15:1-15 shows a conﬂicted ruler. He seems to be a man who is wholeheartedly committed to the Roman understanding of law and order. He sees no law-breaking in Jesus and, indeed, recognizes that the accusations are motivated by the corruption of the chief priests who have given Jesus over to him for condemnation (Mark 15:10, 14). In his heart, Pilate knows that what is afoot here is unjust. And he even initially takes a stand against the injustice of it. Yet in his alltoo-human response of taking the path of least resistance, he yields to what is unjust St. Albans 51/26 Clendenin 50/25 Charleston 52/27 Shown are noon positions of weather systems and precipitation.
