New Edinburg Column For This Week

Romans 1: 21-25 " 21Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as 
God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their 
foolish heart was darkened.  22Professing themselves to be wise, they became 
fools, 23And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like 
to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.  
24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own 
hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:  25Who changed the 
truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the 
Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. "

This will be a short column this week since there's not much to report this time 
around.  We got a light dusting of snow one morning last week, but it didn't 
amount to anything at all. 
 
Remember the open house tour is on this Thursday evening.  I'm sure details are 
elsewhere in this paper.  I'm starting with the Clement Hotel and working my way 
outward. 
 
Area resident Derrick Sims is in California raising funds to make his upcoming

Membership dues for the New Edinburg Fire Department will remain at $25 for the 
year 2011.  Why should you pay fire dues?  There are many reasons, but the best 
one is that if you carry home owner's insurance, your rates will go way down due 
to having fire coverage.  If you're interested in becoming a paying member, 
contact Jean Parrott or Roy Chambers.
