Word for the week

The Bible is full of blessings and curses. Jesus utters them both. Many of His blessings are in the form of beatitudes. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God”
(Matthew 5:8). The opposite is the pronouncement of woe. “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside they are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness

Nash County Animal Friends’ Notebook

FREE pets = DEAD pets!
There are many reasons why a pet owner may need to re-home their pet. There are far too many reasons to list. It is not our place to judge their decision. When faced with re-homing under a time constraint, many owners will give the pet away for free through local advertisements without researching the new owner’s background. The risks of giving pets away for free are huge.

RACE TO THE BALL. (L to R) Northern Nash’s Richard Wells and Rocky Mount’s Duncan Carmichael converge on the ball during last Thursday afternoon’s Big East Conference boys soccer showdown on the RMHS campus.
THE CHASE IS ON

ROCKY MOUNT -- Northern Nash veteran coach Joe McCarthy didn’t like the beginning or the end of his club’s Big East Conference boys soccer showdown last Thursday at backyard rival Rocky Mount.
But the in-between part proved to be to McCarthy’s satisfaction, and it was enough to propel the Knights to a 3-2 decision over the Gryphons in the regular season league finale.
