Sometimes things arenʼt what they seem — like the “vintage” car Joe Ritchie brings to town. At first glance, Ritchieʼs roadster appears to be a 1928 Model A, but itʼs really a reproduction, manufactured 30 years ago using genuine Ford Motor Co. components. Made by the Shay Motors Corp., Detroit, Mich., the vehicle looks just like the original — complete with a rumble seat in the back. Ritchie, of Long Bottom, said he is the carʼs fourth owner, and put all but 1,400 of the 19,000 miles on the odometer. (Brian J.

Fr. Walter Heinz packed his last bag of groceries Thursday morning just before the summer food distribution. He is retiring as pastor of Sacred Heart Catholic Church on July 31 and will be leaving the community where his contributions, not only to the Cooperative Parish but to many other organizations, will be missed. Doing for others less fortunate has been one of his missions during his many years at the Pomeroy Church. The Rev. Mr. Heinz began volunteering with the Cooperative Parish in its food give-away program when it operated out of a Condor Street house long before its move to the Meigs Community Center. He estimates that he has been a part of Parish food give-aways to people in need move than a hundred times over the years. “For me helping others is what it’s all about,” he commented. The Rev. Fr. Walter Heinz, left, assists for the last time in the Meigs Cooperative Parishʼs food give-away.

A rumor the tank had leaked a significant amount of crude oil into Leading Creek is simply not true, according to spokespersons from both ODNR and Ohio EPA. Staff from ODNR, which were on the spill scene on Lasher Road, observed the amount of oil which leaked into the tributary as being “very small.” Meigs Emergency Management Agency Director Bob Byer had also been on the scene and said though the tank was leaking, it was a very small amount and he didn’t observe any oil in the tributary. ODNR officials said the tank (which was not currently in use) is owned by JD Drilling Company and added the company has been working to absorb the crude oil with containment booms to keep it from moving downstream. ODNR also added there was no evidence of fish kill in the water, observing red-sided darter fish alive and well in the stream. Staff from both ODNR and Ohio EPA will be on the scene Friday to observe cleanup efforts the agencies are working jointly in this matter with the EPA being notified when waterways are involved ODNR involved with oil and gas, as well as wildlife management issues. A spokesperson with the Meigs Soil and Water Conservation District said the likely tributary which was affected was Lasher Run. The leak was reported by a citizen, according to ODNR.

That information will have a significant impact on the quality of data public safety officials rely on to respond to 911 calls, and enable dispatchers to accurately map wireline and, potentially, wireless calls to 911. “Field verification — being there and seeing it firsthand — is the only way data can be actually colected accurately,” Triplett said.

ATTEND CHURCH �Friday, June 3, 2011 “Each day of Alanʼs life was a miracle...” BY RITA TAYLOR HALEY SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE It was Christmas Eve, 1980, when my son’s pediatrician stated that the pediatricians at Holzer Clinic were surprised six weeks old Alan, my first born, was still alive. On his first birthday, Alan was diagnosed with pneumonia. Lower respiratory infections such as pneumonia attacked Alan almost every month for the next eleven years. He still had respiratory infections after he turned twelve, but with less frequency. Alan fought respiratory infection battles for his life due to his low immunity, which was caused by his serious congenital heart defect diagnosed as single ventricle and transposition of the greater vessels. His heart disease became more complex as he grew older. During his late teens and early twenties he struggled with heart arrhythmias. As an adult with ACHD (adult congenital heart disease) he had at least eight problems that stemmed from his heart defect including a pulmonary artery aneurysm, pulmonary hypertension, and a struggling heart. His cardiologist stated that only a handful of people in the world were alive with conditions similar to his. Each day of Alan’s life was a miracle, and he accepted the free miracle gift of salvation. He was growing closer to Christ during his last years. He preached a message about hope one week before he died. At the end of the sermon outline he considered Proverbs 14:32b: but the righteous hath hope in his death, and Job 19:25,26: For I know that my redeemer liveth…in my flesh I shall see God. Alan wanted to be “normal.” He didn’t want many to know that he had ACHD because he thought people would think of him as only a heart problem. He wanted to get married and have children. He didn’t want to die. He had an entrepreneur spirit. He was a real estate agent, an auctioneer, a farmer, and sold Kaiser Blair products. Besides graduating from Honduras Real Estate School and the Ohio Auctioneer School, he attended the University of Rio Grande, and was taking classes on line from Liberty University just weeks before he died. His most important goal as an entrepreneur was to be a farmer. He declared he was going to be a farmer at age five, and continued with the dream until his death. Alan had many interests including church work, the Bible, listening to sermons on line, and deer and squirrel hunting, plus he received second place at the Ohio Bid Contest (junior division, auctioneers with seven years and under experience) in August 2007. He loved God and God’s great outdoors. God blessed him, and miraculously sustained each of Alan’s heart beats for almost 10,000 days on earth. Not only did he endure many battles of physical distress due to his heart defect, in which, God brought him through them all, but there were years of emotional pain including the extremely burdensome weeks before God freed Alan Keith Haley from the cares of this life. (Story was submitted to the Gallipolis Daily Tribune by the author). Accept correction as direction Part of real, genuine love is correcting others. God says in Revelation 3:19, Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. If God's spirit is correcting you, then that a sign that he loves you. God loves you enough to risk offending you so that he can guide you away from things that might harm you. Don't get mad at someone who corrects you; rather, rejoice that you're given a chance to grow and change. If you're wise, you'll appreciate and love the people who correct you (Proverbs 9:8) Parents aren't showing their children love if they never correct them. If your little boy is being mean to other kids, but you chose not to correct him, then he'll probably never change. However, if you love him The Daily Sentinel • Page A4 www.mydailysentinel.com enough that you want him to improve his behavior, then you'll correct him so that you can guide him in a different direction. When someone corrects you, don't become angry at them. Recognize that they're simply trying to help you. Accept their correction as direction. The more you doubt, the more you'll have to live without. Complaining is one of the worst traps that many Christians fall into. A complainer thinks, "I can't stand my boss. If she would only treat me better, I'd be happy. I hate this traffic. Why can the government improve traffic flow with all the tax money I pay?" This is a deceptive trap because it leads one to believe that life would be better if something would be different. However, it is far more productive for to believe that God can change the situation than to doubt him. This trap of complaining is the same trap that the Israelites fell into. They were not satisfied with what God had given them and they continually wanted more. Psalm 106:12-15 is a great example of what happens to people who are unthankful and always want more: Then they [Israel] believed his promises and sang his praise. But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his counsel. In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wasteland they put God to the test. So he gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease upon them. ATTEND THE CHURCH A Hunger For More Several years ago, I was the guest of a small church about an hour’s drive away from 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. As I pulled into the gravel parking lot of the church, the church building 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. Thom Mollohan “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 Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God. Matthew 5:8 OF YOUR CHOICE 209 Third St. Racine, OH AND URGE Hills Self Storage TO DO THE SAME Overbrook Rehabilitation Center Short & Long Term & Respite Care • Rehab Services Available www.overbrookrehabilitationcenter.com 333 Page Street Middleport, OH Warm Friendly Atmosphere 740-949-2210 OTHERS 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, “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” 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 hurricanes of hurt and typhoons of trouble crash into your life and topple over the things to which you’ve given yourself? 29670 Bashan Rd.

We rather wonder what we will be like with each other if we live together to ripened elderliness. Another incident recently with the two of us sharpens the long-range perspective. We had traveled all day from Mason to Chester, New York, on Thursday, May 19th, to take part in the graduation activities of Cadet Brenton Clark at the U. S. Army West Point Academy. The plan that evening was for us to meet up at a certain restaurant with the other families from our church who had also traveled to attend the activities. As we readied to leave our motel room for the restaurant, the following frantic conversation and search ensued: “Where are the keys?” I asked after a previous general search through our belongings. Terry scrambled through her pocket book, “I don’t know where they are! I know I had them with me when I went out to the car a few minutes ago.” “What did you do with them last?” I asked irritably. “I laid them on that pair of pants you had set out on that chair!” she replied with a tone of defiance. We looked around again. If she had lost the keys, I thought, it was going to cost us for sure. I was getting flustered, Ron Branch and blurted out, “Did you lock them up in the car?” Emphatically, she iterated, “No. Absolutely not. I am sure that I laid them on that pair of pants.” This time I picked up her purse and almost immediately espied the keys for which I was looking, and said with an evident sigh of relief, “Well, here they are after all.” In that moment, the absurdity of our frantic search dawned on us, and I said, “I was looking for the card keys to our room.” “Well, they were right there in my purse. I was looking for the car keys.” I replied, “I have the car keys here in my pocket, which I had retrieved from off that pair of pants.” Each of us had been looking all the time for which we thought were the right keys, but in actuality each of us was searching for the wrong keys, which sets the tone for a considerable spiritual truth. As it involves living life, people, likewise, are all the time looking for what they consider to be the right keys for a good life. However, they actually are looking for the wrong keys, and the ensuing searches bring no small amount of frustration as well as eventual personal cost to the experience. Actually, the key for experiencing a good life involves not so much looking for what we think are the right keys, but rather searching out the person who has the right keys. That person is none other than Jesus Christ, and He has in His possession the right keys for every person to experience a good life as well as the right kind of life. He affirms, “I am alive…and have the keys…” What makes this true? I affirm with passion and conviction that Jesus Christ changes lives. He is the solution to every problem. He is the answer for every question. He is the healing for every hurt. It is He who is the most complete rolemodel. It is He who mends the most extreme brokenness. It is He that gives the most beneficent hope. It is He who is the source for the deepest and richest blessings to ameliorate the bitterness that sometimes comes to our lives. He extends to us the most gracious invitation, “Come unto me all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” With this in mind, your search priorities, perhaps, should be amended to a focus on the key principles of Jesus Christ. The Daily Sentinel • Page A5 Bigger Really is Better “Bigger is better.” It is a saying we have heard and said for a long time. America seems to have taken it as a motto with biggie sized everything even our waistlines. Big is good. Big sells. Look at the new craze, extreme couponing. (I really do not understand the need for 1,000 tubes of toothpaste or several hundred bottles of mustard.) We went through a period of spending big, I guess with the turn in the economy we want to save big too. Americans just seem to like big. What amazes me with our fascination for big, we seem to miss the biggest thing going for us. God. God is bigger than the valleys of despair we walk through. He is bigger than the peaks of anxiety. He is bigger than the deserts of desolation. He is bigger than the stormy seas of sin and the vales of victimization. He is bigger than the circumstance. He is bigger than the situation. He is bigger than the disease. He is bigger than the discomfort. He is bigger than every giant. He is bigger by His might, His power. He is bigger than the enemy! He is bigger than the sum total of power of every demon, ever. He is BIGGER! When the people of God get that in their DNA, when they root that in their souls WATCH OUT! God is going to move! When we get it in our heads and hearts that the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob, the Lord Jesus Christ is bigger than any obstacle, than any road block of the enemy, than anything, what can stop us? Nothing. Come on church and wake up to Carrie Wolfe the power of the Lord God Almighty! It is better than any cup of coffee, I can tell you that! He really is bigger. Have you ever walked along a beach? Have you ever looked at a jar with sand in it? There are so many individual grains of sand. It would be a horrendous task to attempt to count each individual grain of sand. Think about all the sand just along our own beautiful Ohio River. Then think about all the sand in the mighty Mississippi River. Now think about all the grains of sand in every river, every beach, every lake, every ocean and even every sandbox. Can you begin to picture every grain of sand? Can you begin to count it? Can you comprehend just how much that is and see all of it? God can. God sees every grain on every shore on every continent. He sees it all. He knows exactly how many grains there are...He created them. He also created you. He sees you, just as you are. He sees you where you are right now this very minute. He sees you. One of the Hebrew names of God is El Roi (EL Raw-ee). It means “the God who sees me.” He sees you just as you are, where you are, in belief and unbelief. He sees you. He has cared for you from before you were born. Maybe you have not always felt His presence and maybe you have not always seen Him at work in your life, but He has always been there. He is the God who sees me and all my flaws and yet loves me. He is the God who sees you and all your flaws and yet loves you. He loves us so much, He took on the weight of all the sin of all the world for all time. Can we even calculate the weight of all the sin of all the world for all time? He did. He bore it all. He paid it all. He suffered and took it all for us. He is bigger than the grave. It could not contain Him. He is bigger than death! Now, what is greater than God? What is greater than the Lord Jesus Christ? What circumstance is bigger, greater than the this mighty, impeccable, undeniable, infallible, majestic, unsurpassed, indescribable, magnificent, perfect, holy Lord God Almighty? Nothing. Nothing. Nothing! He can count the grains of sands. He knows the numbers of hairs on your head. He can handle it. Remember He sees you. He loves you. He has a plan for you. Get on your knees and get real with this great big God, stop living a life of less and seek a life filled, big and clothed in grace through Jesus! When you can wrap your head around that, you can lead a life of Grace Out Loud! (Carrie Wolfe is the senior pastor of Beacon Ministries in Syracuse, Ohio.) A person who canʼt submit to authority has no business being in authority. Every action you take is a seed you sow, and every seed you sow is a harvest you'll reap. Romans 13:1-2 says, Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. It is clear that submission to authority is a key requirement for being in authority. Rebelling against authority is rebelling against God because God has instituted that authority. God will not bless someone who rebels against Him. Thus, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience (Romans 13:5). Furthermore, the Bible instructs you to obey your leaders and submit to their authority (Hebrews 13:17). This means that even if you disagree with your pastor, you ought to submit to him out of respect for God. Have you ever had a thought like this: "Nobody would ever notice"? Or this: "It's just a little thing"? But to God, every action -- big or small -- is important, because every action you take is a seed you sow. For example, say that you tell your boss you worked eight hours when really you only worked six. But on the other hand, it's only two hours, and "nobody will ever notice." However, you're sowing seeds of dishonesty in your life that will reap a harvest of the very same thing. Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. (Galatians 6:7-8) Don't think that you can lie to someone (i.e. sow a seed of dishonesty), but yet expect to reap a harvest of truth in your life. Proverbs 22:8 warns that He who sows wickedness reaps trouble. Government: Entitlement comes with responsibility Knowing full well the majority of us detest profanity, far be it from me to use despicable language in any of my articles. Even so, because they have been abused, misused and over-used, certain otherwise neutral, harmless terms have acquired a degree of notoriety of late. Case in point: the word “entitled.” From this verb derives another word — entitlements. Put them together, and we arrive at the essence of many a politician’s dreams ... and schemes! The self-aggrandizing politician endeavors to ensure that those who want, get! Such satisfied consumers are virtually guaranteed to vote for this politician come the next election. “Is this a great Country, or what?!?” Those who feel entitled to receive something for nothing, to receive special treatment without any sacrifice on their Thomas Johnson part — be they a legal citizen or even an illegal immigrant — can rest assured that somewhere in America there is somebody else who at least shares their mindset. For a business to be profitable, the demand for its product(s) must equal or, better yet, exceed the availability of that same product. That business which promises more than it can deliver, or has too much inventory on hand, is destined to implode. Government is sup- posed to operate in like manner. When a governmental agency proposes to implement a particular program, one would expect it either has or has access to the necessary resources. Promises will not long suffice in the place of concrete and positive activity. Nor can the Church, with its altogether unique offering of the Gospel message, avoid or evade its own divine mandate of The Great Commission. Either the Church will be faithful to promulgate the Good News, or it will answer to the Lord for failing to do so. At the same time, that Church which practices favoritism in the body is guilty of the same sins of idolatry and insensitivity for which Jesus condemned the Jews of his own day. Those religious muckety-mucks were so enamored of themselves they were completely ignorant of the suffering of those around them who were much less-fortunate. BIG mistake! When the Apostle Paul was made aware of the irresponsibility, apathy, and general laziness among the Christians at Thessalonica, he advised the elders there that those who didn’t care to share the work were not to be fed; they were to fend for themselves (2 Thess. 3:10). Paul told the lazy many they deserved nothing from the industrious few. If you want to eat, he insisted, you’ll do your part and pull your own weight. Remember “All in the Family,” with Archie and Edith Bunker sitting at the piano singing the theme song? As I recall, the words went something like this: ... “Didn’t have no welfare state, everybody pulled his weight; ... folks like us we had it made, those were the days.” Perhaps you share my contention there are a lot of supposedly wellmeaning folks in our midst, politician and nonpolitician types alike, who seem to want very much to give our Country away. Of course, they don’t propose to do this wholesale, but in bits and pieces, by way of one entitlement program or another, as though there is no end whatsoever to our national largesse. Now, I’m a firm believer that greed plays a real part in our overall economy: everybody always seems to want more; and nobody ever seems to have enough. More ... more ... MORE!!! With America being high on many peoples’ radar as the modern-day “Promised Land,” numerous illegal immigrants and their zealous advocates, in particular, seem to want ... expect ... and feel entitled to the same rights and privileges we enjoy as citizens, and for which our parents and their parents before them labored long and hard, and likewise fought two World Wars. I’ve heard it said that some foreigners believe God has blessed America to such an extent they now are entitled to flaunt our immigration policies, and once here to exploit our already over-burdened systems of welfare, health care, and unemployment compensation. Hmm ... Were I a politician, I would target those who have less and yet want more, and I would then set myself up as their “savior.” I would do as much speechifying, make as many promises, and “tickle their ears” as often as necessary to secure their favor. But I’m a pastor, and I won’t engage in such activities. Besides, I’d rather secure God’s favor. Not that I’m entitled to it; I’m not. It’s grace that makes His blessings mine — yours, too. �Friday, June 3, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page A6 AEP homelessness OSU awards scholarship initiative announced to Racine student CHESHIRE – AEP Ohio, in a partnership with United Way of Gallia County and Gallia-Meigs Community Action Agency, has announced a new initiative designed to bring aid and comfort to their low income residential customers, those of whom are particularly feeling the adverse impacts of a declining economy and diminishing employment opportunities.

STRATHAM, N.H. (AP) — Just as Mitt Romney declared Thursday that he’s in, it’s suddenly looking like he’ll have more company in his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. While Romney made his candidacy official in New Hampshire, political heavyweights Sarah Palin and Rudy Giuliani caused a stir of their own with visits to the first-in-the-nation primary state. And rumblings from Texas Gov. Rick Perry, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota further undercut Romney’s standing as the closest thing the GOP has to a front-runner. “I’m Mitt Romney and I believe in America.

Man who kidnapped CA girl to spend life in prison BY LISA LEFF ASSOCIATED PRESS PLACERVILLE, Calif. (AP) — A serial sex offender was ordered Thursday to spend the rest of his life in prison after the California woman he kidnapped, raped and held captive for 18 years said he and his wife-accomplice had stolen her life. Victim Jaycee Dugard was 11 when she was abducted by Phillip and Nancy Garrido as her stepfather watched her walk toward a school bus. She gave birth to two daughters fathered by Garrido while he held her in a secret backyard compound. The defendants, both dressed in orange jumpsuits, made no eye contact with anyone in the room and kept their heads down as Dugard’s mother, Terry Probyn, read her daughter’s statement at the ongoing hearing that Dugard did not attend. “I chose not to be here today because I refuse to waste another second of my life in your presence,” Dugard wrote in a portion of the statement directed to Phillip Garrido. “Everything you ever did to me was wrong and I hope one day you will see that. “I hated every second of every day for 18 years,” she said in her first public statement since resurfacing. “You stole my life and that of my family.” A judge imposed the maximum possible sentence of 431 years to life on 60-year-old Phillip Garrido, calling his treatment of Jaycee Dugard evil and reprehensible. Garrido, who was on parole for a 1976 rape when Dugard was abducted, pleaded guilty to kidnapping and 13 sexual assault charges, including six counts of rape and seven counts of committing lewd acts captured on video. His plea was part of a deal with prosecutors that saw Nancy Garrido sentenced to 36 years to life after pleading guilty to kidnapping and rape. The deal was designed, in part, to spare Dugard and her children from having to testify at a trial. In the statement, Dugard called Phillip Garrido a liar and said what Nancy Garrido did to her was evil. She said she hoped both of them would have as many sleepless nights as she had. “There is no God in the universe that would condone your actions,” Dugard said in a portion of the statement directed to Nancy Garrido. �SPORTS B1 Friday, June 3, 2011 LOCAL SCHEDULE POMEROY — A schedule of upcoming college and high school varsity sporting events involving teams from Gallia, Mason and Meigs counties.
