  • Washington Keeping Carroll Focused

    Eddie Gillis|Nov 7, 2019

    Alex Washington's first year as head coach of the Carroll High School Football Team Monroe LA was not by all standards a good one. Starting your first year off with a 2-8 record is not the stuff that people want to remember. But Washington and his staff were determined to put year one in the rear-view mirror and do things differently. The first thing that Washington and his staff did, was to get his team in the conditioning room and focus on keeping his players at peak optimum by going through...

  • The End Is Near!

    Nov 7, 2019

    This age thrives on the sensation of war. Killing and sex is promoted on television, radio and in songs that are sung throughout the land. They love violent movies and talebearers direct their ways. Lucifer, that Old Devil, wants to confuse and shape the minds of men to think like him; causing them to follow the evil and wickedness of the imaginations of their heart. They curse God, refuses to obey God commandments. They have a form of God, yet they deny the power of God. After Lucifer fell from heaven, he encouraged wickedness and...

  • Change your recipe

    Jessica DeTiege|Nov 7, 2019

    I've always loved the thought of cooking. I watched cooking shows and watched my grandmother in the kitchen countless times. As I've gotten older, I've also come to enjoy the process. I most often learn to make things after I've tried it or after people reneged on making it for me. My most recent food obsession has been white chocolate cookies. Most stores sell them with macadamia nuts and I'm not a fan of those types of nuts, so one day a few weeks ago I decided to pull out my mixer a bake them myself. My white chocolate cookies came out...

We must wonder if there is fear among them, either for their lives or other family members or friends. Some people are not talking to authorities...

She stated to me: "They believe he had a heart attack and was transported to the local hospital which is a few...
