This year’s theme is taken from I Kings 8:28: “Hear the cry and the prayer that your servant is praying in your presence this day.” Initiated by the Continental Congress in 1775, the first day of prayer was declared when the Continental Congress “designated a time for prayer in forming a new nation.” George Washington proclaimed a day of public thanksgiving and prayer on Feb. 19, 1795, as did Madison in 1813. Abraham Lincoln called for a National Day of Prayer to be April 30, 1863. In 1952, Congress formally established National Day of Prayer by a joint resolution. This was signed by President Harry Truman. In 1988, President Ronald Reagan assigned the National Day of Prayer to be the first Thursday in May. According to the Meigs County Commissioners Procla- mation, National Day of Prayer is now recognized as a time to unite Americans in acknowledgement for our dependence on God and an opportunity for citizens to renew their commitment to the nation’s spiritual and moral heritage. This Day of Prayer includes Americans of many faiths who assemble in prayer in front of courthouses and places of worship. Activities revolving around praying for the nation are also popular observances. This is the 24th year of activities organized by the Meigs Committee. A ceremony entitled Circle the Courthouse will be held Sunday, May 3, at 3 p.m. Participants will join hands around the courthouse and pray for those who represent Meigs County. Signs will be placed on the walking path in Pomeroy on Sunday as well. The signs will read, “Please Walk and Pray,” and will remain through May 7. The stage in the Pomeroy Parking Lot will be the site of Bible reading on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 6p.m. Residents will participate in the reading. Observance of the National Day of Prayer will be held on the steps of the Meigs County Courthouse Thursday at 11:30 a.m. Meigs Middle School Choir will sing the National Anthem and Little Lamb Preschool will lead the audience in the Pledge and the Lord’s Prayer. Participants will pray for government, state and local officials. “This is a community effort,” committee spokesperson Brenda Barnhart said. “Participate and attendance is welcome.” Reach Lorna Hart at 740-992-2155 ext 2551. Commencement marks historical first for URG Brittany Piccone will be first student to give graduation address Staff Report RIO GRANDE — The name Brittany Piccone will forever be cemented in the rich history of the University of Rio Grande and Rio Grande Community College come Saturday, May 2. Piccone is one of the 384 graduates to be honored at the 139th Commencement of Rio Grande. But the Student Senate President also will address the graduates, thus becoming the first student to ever do so. Piccone “It’s extremely exciting and a huge honor,” said Piccone, an Education major from Crooksville, Ohio. “I’m not exactly sure what I’ll say yet … but my main goal is to encourage everybody to continue doing what they love when they leave Rio.” Piccone said that message was clear to her the day she first signed to run cross country and track for the RedStorm. Coach Bob Willey asked what she planed to study. She replied education. He asked why. Piccone answered, ‘Because that’s what I love.’ See URG | 5 Photo courtesy of University of Rio Grande A University of Rio Grande student accepts her bachelor’s degree during commencement ceremonies. Elaine Guetlig and Stu Johnson cut the ribbon at the official opening of Digital Works in Middleport. Photos by Lindsay Kriz | Daily Sentinel Digital Works opens new office By Lindsay Kriz lkriz@civitasmedia.com MIDDLEPORT — Visitors from across southeast Ohio made their way this week into the new headquarters of Digital Works in Middleport. According to their website, Digital Works is “a digital skills training program aimed at providing a link between 21st century workforce opportunities and community revitalization. The program provides mentoring and training to workers seeking employment and places them in quality teleworking jobs.” Stu Johnson, vice president of Digital Works, gave a welcome address. He emphasized the importance of the Internet in the job market today, particularly in work-from-home jobs. Johnson cited a statistic that states that by 2020, 40 percent of the United AT LEFT, success story employee Elaine Guetlig praised Digital Works for their training in January 2015. AT RIGHT, Digital Works Vice President Stu Johnson welcomes everyone Wednesday afternoon. States’ population will work from home. “Anytime Internet is involved in policy, we’re asked to participate in that,” he said. “We believe broadband is the great equalizer to connectivity work at home growing most.” Johnson emphasized that Digital Works is a training program that sends trained people out into the job market. “What we provide here is community,” he said. “We put over 390 people to work in Ohio. None work for us, but they’re a part of our community.” Lastly, Johnson said that the process of bringing Digital Works to Meigs County began in September 2013 with the help of Meigs County Ohio Economic Development Office Director Perry Varnadoe. Varnadoe recalled hearing about Digital Works in 2013 and admitted at first he was slightly skeptical, but after checking into the other Digital Works locations, he found that all the other locations were legitimate and successful, so he contacted Johnson again to bring Digital Works to Meigs.

Southern High School senior Tristen Wolfe added another high honor to an already accomplished prep resume after recently being named to the 2015 Academic AllOhio Division IV team by the Ohio High School Basketball Coaches Association. Wolfe — who averaged 21.4 points this past season while also joining the Tornadoes’ 1,000-point club — was one of 10 young men honored by the OHSBCA in Division IV this past season. Wolfe currently holds a 4.0 grade-point average at SHS and was the only southeast Ohio area selection to the D-4 Academic All-Ohio boys squad. Wolfe was a three-time All-Ohio and two-time Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division player of the year during his hardwood career with the Purple and Gold, which ultimately ended with 1,297 career points. Wolfe was also the leading scorer on the team during his junior campaign, which aided Southern to its only TVC Hocking championship in boys basketball. Wolfe — the son of Joe and Bettyann Wolfe of Racine — was also a two-time All-Ohio football selection in Division VII and served as the Tornadoes’ quarterback and safety during their first-ever playoff berth as a junior.

I had previously “Googled” for directions to the hospital, fully expecting to retrace the directions when it came time to return. However, it occurred to me during the early morning entry that, with all the one-way streets at hand, retracing street by street would not work. As I had opportunity during the course of the day, I talked with two of the hospital’s security personnel, both of whom cited different ways of getting out of downtown Baltimore to the outlying interstates. When I realized one of the family members had their computer with them, I had them to “Google” directions for me, which I fully intended to follow. However, the first stated direction was a bit indicating that ambiguous for me. Edmonson was It said, “Go south on also Rt. 40, with North Wolfe Street.” which I was someNorth Wolfe Street what familiar.

Though momentarily people who are looking for uncertain where to go, I God, or eternal salvation, did note, however, a sign or for a sense of peace in the soul. Just like being on a seemingly endless road because of ineffective directions, it can be an unsettling experience in life not to know exactly where you are to get exactly where you want to go. That is why the directions given by the Lord Jesus Christ are so critical for each person to grasp. The Lord made it very clear, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by me.” If you are looking for directions to be right with God, Jesus not only made the way, He is the only way. If you need stability for your life, He is the absolute truth. If you are looking for a meaningful way in life, His life can show you the way. Without knowing and following the effective, redemptive way of Christ — well, that is where the damning part comes into consideration. In the mean time, I am just glad I was not doomed to circuit Baltimore no more than I did. The Rev. Ron Branch is pastor of Faith Baptist Church in Mason, W.Va.

GOD’S KIDS KORNER Be the branch that grows from Jesus’ vine One of my favorite fruits to eat is grapes, but do you know how grapes are grown? Special farms called vineyards plant the grape seeds, and they grow on long and curly vines. If you look at a bunch of grapes, you can see a little of the vine and also the short branches that grow out from the vine. The fruit then forms at the end of these little branches. Looking at grapes reminds me of a Bible verse from John, Chapter 15, Verse 5, It says: I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit. Apart from Me, you can do nothing. Jesus is talking here. He says in a later verse that God is like the farmer who plants the vineyard, and He (Jesus) is like the vine. Then Jesus says that we are the branches growing out from that vine. And what happens when we let Jesus be our Savior and listen and do what He says; what do our branches produce? That’s right - good fruit just like the grapes. But you know what? We couldn’t become a yummy grape without Farmer God grape vine, branchor Vine Jesus.

Daily Sentinel A HUNGER FOR MORE Solid foundation is important to maintain in one’s faith Several years ago, I was a guest speaker at a small church about an hour’s drive away from my home. As I traveled, the bright light of the early morning April sun made the newly budding leaves emerging on the tree branches seem to glow with the fresh green of spring. Thom As I pulled into the gravel parking Mollohan lot of the church, the church building Pastor struck me as a cheerful and welcoming place. Indeed, the pastor and a lay leader were waiting to greet me at the door and ushered me into the old but charming structure where we prepared for the service that was to shortly follow. After worshiping our living Lord with their church family and sharing a word of encouragement from the Bible with them, they generously invited me to join them in a meal in a small fellowship room connected to the sanctuary by a long hallway with small rooms on either side set apart for Bible study classes. As we shared together over that meal a bit from our respective spiritual journeys, I happened to remark about how pleasant the facility was in which they worshipped and from which they reached out to their community. The moment that the words left my mouth, an expression that bordered on glumness crossed a few of the members’ faces and I wondered if I had said something that had offended them. The pastor noticed my confusion and quickly said, “Well, it’s funny that you should say that. We’re not going to be in it much longer.” I glanced at others seated about us and their expressions all had the same wistful look of something like regret that had flickered over the pastor’s face. “Well, that sounds like something either really exciting or something really sad,” I replied after a moment. “Not knowing what the future holds for us,” a lady answered, “sometimes we forget ourselves and look at these circumstances from eyes of flesh and get a little sad. But God is in control. He has a plan for us.” “What’s happening?” I asked. “What are these ‘circumstances’ that you’re talking about?” One of the men laughed. “This building was built on property given to the church a long time ago, before any of us were even members here. It turns out that the ground it was built on, the ground all around this area, is sand … or enough of it is that a building built on it that isn’t shored up right is in real trouble. We’ve done all right by it for a long time, but now it turns out that sinkholes all around here are causing all this sandy ground to shift. We’ve been notified that this building isn’t safe and that we’re going to have to vacate it.” As what they shared with me sank into my mind, it seemed to me that I could sense that these brothers and sisters in Christ were wrestling with the temptation to feel discouraged and anxious about their future together as a church. And it proved to truly be a very difficult transition for them, from hosting their main worship in another church’s building when the other church was not holding services (the generosity of this other church family was just amazing), to some very serious and traumatic experiences that their pastor’s family later endured (a death, and a series of debilitating illnesses), they finally came through a valley of night, seeing God’s faithfulness in spite of that season of confusion and dark discouragement. In fact, although their old building may have been built on the sand, their lives and testimony were constructed on something infinitely more dependable than any building, financial asset, or human relationship. The fact that their hope and confidence were built on the faithfulness of Christ poured through the windows of their souls when cataclysmic storms raged against them. And although their tender souls were bruised at times in the tumult about them, they have been lifted up, and now joyfully share the hope that sustained them with others in their community. Their physical circumstances years ago may have been a gentle admonition from our Father in heaven to be sure that their faith was not built on mere feelings or on the delusion that a Christian’s life will be without pain and problems. “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world,” said Jesus in John 16:33. And as certain as it is dangerous to build one’s life on emotions or on denial, a man or woman will find it a grave and fatal error to build his or her life on anything else than Christ Jesus. Jesus in Matthew 7:24-27 said, “Everyone then who hears these words of Mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.” It isn’t enough to go to church, dear one. If the Word of God isn’t somehow transforming your life through your choices, your values, and even your being, then it seems that you may be building your “house” on sand. What will be your fate when tremors of troubles and earthquakes of pain crash into your life and topple over the things to which you’ve given yourself? Will you be crushed by the collapse of your dreams and desires, reaching out and hoping that somebody will find you and offer you a helping hand? Don’t wait until a catastrophe hits home before you grab hold of the only One Who can save you in all instances … Jesus. After all, His special promise to us is that, “blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love Him.” (James 1:12 ESV).

As cliché as it sounds, it is true.” Commencement is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. on the Green in front of Allen Hall. Inclement weather could move the ceremony inside the Lyne Center gymnasium. The Class of 2015 features 398 degrees earned — 240 associate degrees, 133 bachelor’s degrees and 25 master’s degrees — with 13 students earning multiple degrees. The class includes at least four sets of husband and wife – Liranda and Olen McCain, Nicholas and Roberta White, Jacquelyn and Kaleb Patten and James (Shane) and Julie Polcyn. The class also features three Sigma Tau Delta (English Honor Society) members – Jessica DeLong, Kayla Browning and Rebecca Hutchison – who presented at the national conference earlier this spring in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Rio’s first Music Scholarship recipient, Aryn Gritter, also represents the Class of 2015. Gritter has recently been accepted to Opera Guadalajara in Mexico, where she will continue her studies and perform this summer. Rio Grande President Michelle R.

Luke Fox of Sheridan (3.99 GPA) and Alec Wayne of Washington Court House (3.85) were selected for Division II boys, while Jonathan Harrison of Oak Hill (3.95) and Drew Scarberry of Northwest (3.87) were chosen as part of the Division III boys squad. Vinton County (3.801) and Marietta (3.770) were also two of the five boys teams chosen to receive the OHSBCA Academic All-Ohio Team Award for their cumulative grade-point averages. Dominique Doseck of Athens (3.94), Victoria Buzzard of Warren (3.88) and Alexis Overly of Chillicothe-Unioto (3.86) were named to the Division II girls squad, while Hannah Miller of Ironton St. Joseph (4.0) and Christian Woods of Western (3.88) were the area’s Academic All-Ohio choices for girls in Division IV. Jacy Jones of Coal Grove (4.0), Darbie Jenkins of Northwest (4.0), Madison Davis of NelsonvilleYork (3.97) and Kelsey Riley of Fairland (3.93) were the area’s Division III honorees for girls. All 14 southeast Ohio representatives averaged at least 11 points per game this past season for their respective teams.

The White Falcons (14-3, 12-1 TVC Hocking) managed to win their eighth straight decision and moved into sole possession of first place in the league standings, despite producing only one baserunner and zero hits through five innings of play. But then came the bottom of the sixth inning, where Thomas started the offensive breakthrough with a leadoff single to left-center. THS starter Andrew Losey settled down and struck out both Demetrius Serevicz and Jared Nutter, but the third strike to Nutter was dropped — which required a throw down to first after Thomas advanced to second on the dropped third strike. Now with two away in the frame, Ricky Kearns hit a ball between shortstop and third base — and the ensuing throw pulled the first baseman’s foot off the bag for a safe call. As the play at first was developing, Thomas rounded third and was headed home.
