Never forget that we are individuals and as such we do things differ- ently. My heart goes out to those who have lost loved ones this past week.

Josh Sanders, Pastor Sherry Julian, Reporter WHITE RIVER CHAPEL UMC 3555 W. SR 56 in Bowman 812-582-8896 Sunday morning worship 9 a.m.; Sunday school 10 :15 a.m. We are exploring the words in Philippians 4:4-9 and how they can help us thrive in chaos. So many trials come in- to our lives and along with the business of life. These things can easily choke out the Life of God in us. But praise God, "But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things will be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33). What things will be add- ed? God's order back into our lives—a peace that pass- es all understanding—He is in control. Facebook: White River Chapel UMC, Jeff Pinney.

Grenier, Pastor Corinna Williams, Report- er MAIN STREET PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 10th and Main Streets, Petersburg 812-354-6844 Sunday worship 10 :30 a.m.; Youth group Monday evening at 6 p.m. Come vis- it us, our doors are always open to you. Stop, look and listen Literature, painting, mu- sic - the most basic lesson that all art teaches us is to stop, look and listen to life on this planet, including our own lives, as a vastly rich- er, deeper, more mysterious business than most of the time it ever occurs to us to suspect as we bumble along from day to day on automat- ic pilot... When Jesus [says] that the greatest commandment of all is to love God and to love our neighbor, he too is asking us to pay attention. If we are to love God, we must first stop, look and listen for him in what is happen- ing around us and inside us. If we are to love our neigh- bors, before doing anything else, we must see our neigh- bors. With our imagination, as well as our eyes, that is to say like artists, we must see not just their faces but the life behind and within their faces. Here it is love that is the frame we see them in. Office hours: 9 a.m.-noon, Monday-Friday. Boyd Heldring, Pastor Amy Melhiser, Secretary Wesleyan HUNTINGBURG HOLINESS CHURCH 813 N.
