Also pictured are Kevin Berry (left) of RBM who conducted the public test, Board of Elections Deputy Director Tammy Cline and Board of Elections Chairman David Fox. POMEROY — As voters in one of Meigs County’s 27 precincts prepare to vote in the May 2 special election, members and employees of the Meigs County Board of Elections conducted the public test of the election equipment on Tuesday morning. Kevin Berry, a contractor with RBM, was on hand at the Board of Elections ofﬁce to demonstrate the equipment which will be used by voters as they consider the proposed income tax for Alexander Local Schools. While Alexander Local is primarily in Athens County, there is a small portion of the district in Meigs County, as well as Vinton County, which makes it necessary for the Meigs County Board of Elections to conduct an election in the one precinct. With the small number of voters eligible to vote in the county the decision was made to utilize a new voting option, allowing voters to vote on an electronic ballot rather than a paper ballot. The new machine is a touch screen on which voters will simply touch the option they would like to vote for. The machine prevents voters from over voting (picking both for an against) and will alert the voter should they fail to select an option for a race. Voters will review their choice before ﬁnally printing their ballot to be placed in the counting machine. Early voting is currently taking pace at the Board of Elections, with extended hours running through election day. The hours for voting are as follows: Monday, April 24, to Friday, April 28, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Saturday, April 29, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Sunday, April 30, 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and the last day to vote is Monday, May 1, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Any registered voter in Columbia Precinct may request and vote an absentee voter’s ballot in person during these business hours. Registered voters may also call the Meigs County Board of Elections at 740-992-2697 to request an absentee application for an absentee ballot by mail.

For individuals trying to “age in place” or those with disabilities working for independence, one Buckeye Hills Regional Council program is making a difference. Administered through Buckeye Hills in its eight-county southeast Ohio region, the $403,600 housing grant was recently awarded by the Development Services Agency. “Grants are available for income eligible families or individuals with a disability of any age or seniors 60+ who own their home or have a life estate in the property,” said Joe Gage, Buckeye See RESIDENTS | 3 INDEX Obituary: 2 News: 3 Church: 4 Weather: 5 Sports: 6 Classifieds: 8 Comics: 9 Church Directory: 10 Courtesy photos The Shafer Family gathers around the White House Egg Roll sign. Pictured from left: Reid, Eli, Ryan, Rachel, and Ryleigh. Spending Easter with the President By Morgan McKinniss mmckinniss@civitasmedia.com WASHINGTON, D.C. — A local family recently got the experience of a lifetime during a trip to the White House on Easter Sunday. Ryan Shafer, of Crown City, traveled east with his family last weekend with tickets in hand that are rather hard to obtain. Every year the White House holds the annual Egg Roll, one of the only events on the White House Lawn, and every year more than 200,000 tickets are requested. According to Shafer, there is a blind rafﬂe to determine who actually will receive tickets; at least one family from every state is present. Only 21,000 tickets were sold. Shafer’s two children Ryleigh and Reid have been in the national spotlight after meeting President Trump and his family. Reid was able to ﬁnd Eric Trump in a crowd and get a picture with him. His nephew Eli Shafer of Gallipolis went along as well. “It made me really nervous at ﬁrst, but once I got used to it, it was awesome,” explained Ryleigh. Her brother Reid got to shake the hand of President Trump. The Shafers participated in the annual Egg Roll, an Easter Egg Hunt, and even did some coloring with the President. “When I shook his hand, I knew that it was an important moment,” Reid said. Since then, both Reid and Ryleigh have spoken to their classes at school about what it was like to go to the White House Ryleigh, Eli, and Reid Shafer pictured with Eric Trump.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A year after the mysterious killings of eight family members in Ohio, investigators are concerned that more reward money hasn’t been offered and fear that some victims’ involvement in drug crime may be the reason. The amount for information leading to a conviction remains at $10,000, much less than similar recent offers. In Cleveland, for instance, the reward for information about a man who recorded himself fatally shooting someone and posted it on Facebook hit $50,000 almost immediately. Suspect Steve Stephens shot and killed himself Tuesday in Erie, Pennsylvania, as police closed in. In Indiana, the award in the unsolved February slayings of two teenage girls is now more than $230,000. Pike County, Ohio, Sheriff Charles Reader has raised concerns that alleged large-scale drug activity by one victim is suppressing donations. Reader pleaded for more donations last week as the anniversary approaches this Saturday. No arrests have been made, and ofﬁcials have not said whether they have any suspects in mind. “If you can help with the reward, and get the reward money up, that can sometimes make a big difference,” Reader said.

Well, I’m here to tell you that THERE ARE NO RULES!’” When Terry and I had eggs hunts for our six boys over the years, we had to establish and enforce certain rules. For example, there was the “Ground Rule,” which stipulated that an egg on the ground was fair “The truth of the matter is that those who fail to teach that there are rules are mushy of heart and mind.” game, but eggs could not be conﬁscated from the brothers’ baskets. That rule was followed by the “Deliberate Ground Rule.” Baskets could not be jostled for the purpose of knocking brothers’ eggs to the ground and make them fair game. There was the enactment of the “Knock Down Rule.” See RULES | 5 GOD’S KIDS KORNER That Doubting Thomas Have you ever in and stood there been told something, with His disciples. and you just couldn’t As you can imagine, believe it was true? the disciples were Maybe one of your very, very happy to friends won a huge see Him.

Jesus turned to Thomas and said, “See My hands; put your ﬁngers here. Reach out your hand and put it into My side. Stop doubting and believe.” (John 20: 27) But Thomas didn’t need to touch the wounds. He fell to his knees before Jesus and said, “My Lord and my God! Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen Me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.” (John 20: 28-29) A lot of people still won’t believe that Jesus really rose from the grave and helps us even today because they haven’t seen Him with their own two eyes. Do you know what though? It is true whether they believe it or not! We have to accept Him by faith. Faith is believing in something even though you can’t see or touch it. That is sometimes hard, but if we ask Jesus to help us believe, He will. We can always count on Him to be with us and help us when we need Him. Let’s say a prayer thanking Jesus for that very thing. “Jesus, thank You for always helping us with our doubts and fears.

How much more so were our children. But their mother patiently reminded them that things worth having are things worth waiting and working for. So we continued to wait and work among our little plants, weeding and watering, pruning and tending as needed. The golden fruit of faith is far harder to wait on and work for than are the fruits of the garden. But it is worth so much more than the reddest and juiciest of tomatoes, the largest and coolest of cucumbers, and biggest and sweetest of apples! In the ﬁelds that surround your life, are you tending the soil of others’ lives through the relationships with which God has entrusted you? Do you grip the “garden tools” of love, integrity, and courage as you live life, trusting God to use you to spread the seed of His Word in the hearts of others around you? Consider how barren things would be if there were no seed sown. Think of the famine in the land for a lack of knowledge of God’s love if you and I were faithless in our Lord’s ﬁelds? If things seem dark and hopeless to you and the times are troubling, take heart in knowing that God is yet Lord and is still at work. He continues to use circumstances From page 4 could ever do to get him to turn around. So “…He sent his Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving His son as a sacriﬁce for our sins” (Romans 8:3). Jesus Christ—the perfect Son of God—paid the price for my forgiveness and my relationship with God. Now, sin is defeated. Death has lost its sting. Jesus has the last word, and it is “forgiven.” I still can’t pinpoint a reaTODAY row of corn, not just of stalks, but of clumps of stalks. The harvest from that row was quite an interesting experience! Our garden adventures (or misadventures as the case sometimes was) sometimes reminded me of things that Jesus taught. The Lord often compared the workings of the Kingdom of God to the workings of a garden. In John 4:34-38 Jesus said, “My food is to do the will of Him Who sent Me and to accomplish His work. Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the ﬁelds are white for harvest. Already the one who reaps is receiving wages and gathering fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together. For here the saying holds true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.” As I watched our little girl “running amuck” with the seed, I saw someone who was sowing literal seed as we ought to sow the seed of the Word of God. Naturally, the preparing of the “soil” of hearts is chieﬂy done through the cultivation we invest in relationships that God affords us in our families, coworkers, neighbors, and every other “life-on-life” engagement we have with others. Love, courage, and integrity are powerful farming tools that break up even the hardest of hearts. And as we “till the soil”, we sow the words of God as we go, pointing out His holy attributes, His will for living life, and His promises for those who will trust Him with their hearts as they repent of sin and allow Him to be Lord of their lives. In time, our daughter did indeed have a measure of success in her labors in the garden as those stalks sprang up and produced fruit. In a much more profound and important way, when we liberally and generously sow the seed of God’s Word, we may not know which seeds will ultimately bring a harvest, but we do know that some of those sprouts will come to full maturity, ﬁnally reaching the point when their fruits are also ripe for picking. When they do, those who have sown and those who have reaped will together rejoice just as God Himself rejoices in the harvest. It’s a hard, hard thing though… the waiting.
