OPINIONS ᏃᎵᏍᎬᎢ
COMMENTARY: Show me the commodities!
The Lloyd Welch constitution came from our desire to be free. It was a constitution because we wanted not to be governed, but to govern. Why allow us to then, decades later, throw ourselves under a charter?
COMMENTARY: Language is not a requirement for federal recognition

SPEAKING OF FAITH: Jesus, clothed in majesty, our sacrificial lamb
Why did we each need a Savior to be born? Why was Jesus, The Son of God, born on earth as a little baby, and not as a grown man?
