Proverbs 22:6

When it comes to rearing children, developing a strong home where happiness and harmony can flourish, there is a primary starting point: knowing your child.

This is the most profound insight, the single most helpful secret I can pass on to you on the subject of childrearing.

Do not think that just because you have conceived, carried, and finally given birth to your little one, you automatically know your child. Nor can you say you know him or herjust because you live in the same house. I must say, categorically, you do not.

The situation in Richmound is moving, as Romana Didulo and others have packed up and headed to a local farm. 

Richmound residents were thrilled to see that the RVs and motorhomes parked at the school were packing up. It was only when they turned away from the highway, heading north on a grid road that they realized something was strange. 

Arlene Miller, a resident in Richmound, was disheartened to learn they had moved only seven miles out of town.

An event that has showcased the generosity of the southeast for the last several years is on again Thursday.

Estevan Police Service Chief Rich Lowen published a letter thanking everyone involved in helping out the service on, and since, a tragic November 1.

He also said that the officer who was shot during an incident that day at the police station is recovering and will be back on the job.

Psalm 5:8

God's voice isn't all that difficult to hear. In fact, you almost have to be closing your eyes and stopping your ears to miss it.

He sometimes shouts through our pain, whispers to us while we're relaxing on vacation, occasionally He sings to us in a song, and warns us through the 66 books of His written Word. It's right there, ink on paper.

Count on it—that Book will never lead you astray.
