PRESS RELEASE Important Information About Your Property Taxes!
"The
difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength,
not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will." ~ Vincent Lombardi

Those who know your name
trust in you, for you, O Lord, have never abandoned anyone who searches for
you. ~ Psalm 9:10 NLT
Trust
involves letting go and knowing God will catch you. ~ James Dobson
Why Not?
Something is holding us
back. Perhaps it is a fear that maybe we are wrong about God. Maybe we feel
presumptuous. It is possible, if we have been disappointed in the past, that
our misunderstanding is haunting us. We hear a voice in the back of our minds that
says, "What if God doesn't come through? What if he makes it more
difficult than I can handle? What if all my hopes are illusions?" So we
hesitate to trust God. We pray and we hope, but faith remains incomplete and
doubts linger. We'll ask Him to help us, but we withhold judgment until we've
seen His response.
We are called to believe God
with reckless abandon-not just believe that He is there and that He is involved
with us somehow; but that He is actively, personally seeking our good and
answering our prayers. We are to give up our own strategies and ambitions, to
relinquish all "Plan Bs," to recklessly, irrevocably cast ourselves
completely into His arms.
God called Abraham to leave Haran and go to a place
to be revealed later. Jesus invited Peter to step out of the boat and walk on
water. That kind of call is scary, though typical in God's Kingdom. But why is
it scary? Where could He lead us that we'd regret? Would He ever lead us into
danger but not out of it?
God calls us to
"reckless" trust, the kind that prepares no safety net and reserves
nothing for a spiritually rainy day. Try to find someone God had forsaken,
observe His faithfulness, and ask yourself: "Why wouldn't I trust Him
wholeheartedly? Think about it. Why not?

JANE LONG FESTIVAL
Attention
Arts
and Crafts Vendors! A JANE LONG FESTIVAL IS BEING ORGANIZED FOR
OCTOBER 2010 We are looking for vendors and on site demonstrations of
early crafts and/or homemaking remedies that were in use and /or
popular
around the turn of the century, ie, making horseshoes, soap, canning,
woodcrafts, quilting , banjo/guitar players, mimes, etc.. Vendors are
asked to
submit a description of their products or art work for approval so as
not
to have too many duplications. Please include contact information.
Booth rent will be very reasonable for this one day event. The purpose
is
to raise money for improvements but mostly to create awareness of FortTravis
on BolivarPeninsula so that
it may become eligible
for Federal Funding for major improvements and promotion.
A drama production will be presented about the life of Jane Long "The
Mother of Texas" and vendors are asked to dress in costumes of
the era..As well as those attending!
Thank you!

CAJUN CORNER
Boudreaux meets the black iron skillet:
One day while
Clotile was washing Boudreaux's clothes,
she found a piece of paper in Boudreaux's pants pocket.
She opens up the paper and it has the name "Mary Lou" written on it.
Clotile got real mad
and stormed into the room where Boudreaux was and said, "Mais
Boudreaux,
you better explain to me who dis 'Mary Lou' is, rite now!"
Boudreaux said,
"Mais Clotile, don't you go worryin bout
dat. I went to de race track today and dat's the horse dat I
bet on!"
Clotile thought
about it some and said "OK, but don't you ever
let me find out dat you been messin around with somebody
else."
The next day the
phone rang and Clotile answered it, after a while she hung
up the phone and then went over to Boudreaux carrying a big iron
skillet.
Clotile hit Boudreaux on the side of the head with the skillet.
Boudreaux, rubbing
his head, said "Clotile, mais what you done
dat for?!"
Clotile said, "Mais,
your horse just called!"
