Seek- ing to build on this success, he discovered the novel, La Vie de Bohème. This, he be- lieved, was the story upon which he could base his next great opera. He was distressed to learn for your health. Just think how much stress you could avoid by being quick to for- give, by living your life ac- cording to I Corinthians 3 and not counting up the evils done to you. Imagine the physical and emotional benefits of living like that. Remember it doesn't take fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]" (I Cor- inthians 13:4-5, The Ampli- fied Bible). Walking in love is good a medical miracle to turn your life around. All it takes is a decision to yield to the force of love. Do it today! Happy Father's Day! Join us for any or all our services.

"Be an example" (I Tim- ish his work, and his opera, La Bohème, became a sen- sation. Leoncavallo also fin- ished his opera, but after a fairly successful debut, it was quickly forgotten. In the aftermath, he never could forgive Puccini, and the two men never spoke again. Crippled by bitterness and unforgiveness, Leoncavallo was stuck with the label of "one-opera composer." A spirit of unforgiveness tant to forgive others, be- cause without forgiving oth- ers, He would not forgive you (Matthew 6:14-15). Also if we are "at the altar," we are to be ready to forgive those who have something against us. We even are to leave our offering and "go; first be rec- onciled to your brother and/ or sister, and then come and present your offering" (Mat- thew 5:23-24). Forgiveness is so impor- can creep into any person's life. Just like Leoncavallo, our lack of forgiveness can poison our attitudes and even lead to physical or emo- tional anguish.

CHURCH er see a sermon than hear one any day; I'd rather one should walk with me than merely show the way. The eye's a better pupil and more willing than the ear, fine counsel is confusing but example's always clear. And the best of all the preachers are the men who live their creeds, for to see good put in action is what everybody needs." "I soon can learn to do it othy 4:12 NKJV) . . . What Paul was saying to young Timothy was, "When you talk about Jesus, people should see so much of Him in your life that they desire to know Him. When you talk about faith, the evidence of it should be so compelling that they want to live by it." A poet wrote: "I'd rath- tant that, while dying on the Cross, Jesus took the time to forgive those who were cru- cifying Him. As He demon- strated, we are not just to forgive our friends, but al- so our enemies. Forgive- ness is not an option, but a cornerstone of the Christian faith—a key to mental, emo- tional, and spiritual health, and the healing of relation- ships. Have you been wounded by the actions or words of someone? Have you forgiven them? If not, Christ has not forgiv- en you! "In prayer there is a con- if you'll let me see it done; I can see your hands in ac- tion, but your tongue too fast may run. And the lectures you deliver may be very fine and true; but I'd rather get my lesson by observing what you do. For I may not understand you and the high advice you give; but there's no misunderstanding, how you act and live." (Taken in part from The Word For You Today.) See you in church next Sunday.

Everyone welcome. Lloyd Lamar, Pastor Sunday morning service PETERSBURG WESLEYAN What's new at your library? water show was Tuesday morning, the first event of the 2012 Summer Read- ing Program. As always, it was a lot of fun and ed- ucational. We had a great turn out: more than 60 children in attendance, 30 adults, and around 10 in the tween/teen age group. And it looks as though everyone of those folks signed up for the Summer Reading Pro- gram that day, since we had 77 children, 30 adults, and 15 teen/tweens sign up that day at Petersburg alone. Throughout the week there were craft projects and story times at all three branches. It's obvious that school Wow! What a week! The By Ginger Rogers the summer. Bring your ques- tions, your curiosity, or even your laptop for help. This is for beginners, but also for anyone with questions at any skill level. Thursday night (at the same time the Genealogy So- ciety was having a nice sized meeting in the Genealogy de- partment) the Soil and Water Conservation folks conduct- ed a meeting here to inform the public about the purpose of rain gardens and how to plant and care for them. We had about 30 people in atten- dance. Just to give you a quick inating the standing water that attracts mosquitoes, it attracts birds that eat mos- quitoes! The exciting thing is that is out: our computers have been well used this week; by afternoons they are usu- ally all in use, but it's not just kids out of school us- ing them. They are being used by patrons from ages three (with parental help) to school age, to young adults, to middle-age folks and se- nior citizens. There doesn't seem to be any age barrier to comput- er use anymore. Don't for- get that we are offering free computer classes every Mon- day night from 6-7 throughout over view: Rain gardens in- crease the amount of water that filters into the ground, so they can help alleviate flooding and standing wa- ter in yards with drainage problems. Since the excess rain water (not that we've had any this spring!) is fil- tered through the ground and the plants, anything that does go into the city drain- age will be filtered free of the fertilizers, pesticides, and other harmful substanc- es that wash off of roofs and streets. And in addition to looking beautiful, they pro- vide a habitat for birds and butterflies. Incidentally, in addition to hopefully elim- the far, lower end of the li- brary property has had ex- actly the kind of drainage problem that a rain garden can help alleviate. So, with help from Erica Burkemper at Soil and Water Conserva- tion, our landscaper, Char- lie Stocker, the local Girl Scout troops, and others, we are going to plant a rain garden! As far as we know, at this point, it may be the largest functioning rain gar- den in the tri-state area. So it may draw outside attention from those who advocate rain gardens for conserva- tion, and those who want to study the usefulness of rain gardens. We also received two rain clude: Preschool story time today at Petersburg at 10:30 a.m., and at Winslow at 1 p.m. Thursday, Creative Kids barrels as gifts, which will be wonderful for watering the plants near the build- ing, while cutting down on our water usage.
