Hamilton hosts special program Sunday

To mothers: with each gentle word and caring touch, I felt the security of His love, as well as your own. I discovered the meaning of personal faith as I watched you look to Him for guidance and saw you share His love, not only in the words you spoke, but in your actions too. God has truly blessed my life with the gift of a dodly mother.

Mothers were honored throughout the churches, in the homes and around the world on Mother’s Day, May 13. Happy belated Mother’s Day to all mothers.

The people of this community are in sympathy with the families of the late John Byers and the late Mickey Stewart.

Our prayers go out to the sick, shut-ins and bereaved everywhere.

Hamilton Chapel CME Church’s annual Men’s and Women’s Day program will be held Sun., May 20.

The Greenfield Presbyterian Church’s annual calendar drive and youth day program will be held May 27, at 3 p.m. The speaker will be Minister Thaddeus Jefferson. He has a message for the old and young at heart.

Come one and all.
