Dear Viewers,
Peace to all in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This is the Year of the Eucharist. April is Cancer Control Month. April 7th is National Alcohol Screening Day. April 24-30 is National Infant Immunization Week. Exodus 2:7-8 states, "Then his sister asked Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call one of the Hebrew women to nurse the child for You? "Yes do so," she answered. So, the maiden went and called the child's own mother. |

Let us focus on the word conservation. Webster's Dictionary states this
word means PROTECTION, preserve, guarding, management of energy, defend,
safe keeping, sustain, uphold and secure. Protection also means screen,
defend, care and shelter.(Webster's Dictionary)
Encourage and promote people to protect themselves by: using sun screen when outside, stop smoking, eat healthier and smaller servings, have their blood pressure checked periodically, have infants and children immunized, exercise 30 minutes daily, respect each other, drink less alcohol and don't do drugs, men have your PSA checked, women have mammograms, have cholesterol checked, have a colonoscopy done, protect the young and old, protect each other from violence and injury, develop a prayer life, and see your Health Care Provider at least once a year. Please be kind to each other. Psalm 23:4,5 states, "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me, Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies, You anoint my head with oil, my cup runs over." | |
