Charlene Rutherford, president, welcomed the group, with all saying the pledge to the ﬂag. For devotions, Gay Perrin had a reading “I am a Teacher” and had prayer before the meeting. During the business meeting, the secretary and treasurer’s reports were given and approved. The group was thanked for the items brought in for Care By The Stairs, a project of Amy Perrin’s Meigs High School Career Based Intervention class for students in need. The speakers for the group were Linda Warner and Charlene Rutherford, members of the Meigs County Community Fund committee. This fund recently reorganized with the help of the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio (FAO). The goal of the fund is to allow Meigs County people to support projects in Meigs County. The Meigs County Com- munity Fund family of funds includes: The Meigs County Community Fund, Forrest Bachtel Scholarship Fund, Chester Shade Historical Association Fund, New Haven School Fund, and the KarrAanestad K-9 Fund. In addition to these established funds, Endow 200, Celebrating Our Past, Building Our Future, has been launched in conjunction with Meigs County’s 200th birthday in 2019 to build an endowment for future grant opportunities in the county. The goal of Endow 200 is to have 200 gifts of $3,000 by 2020. The ﬁrst grants totaling $8,000 have been awarded to three projects from a total of 16 applications. Hopewell Health Center was awarded $1,000 which will go toward providing a day camp summer program for children with challenges related to the opioid epidemic.

Could it be a scientist, doctor, or engineer? What about a farmer or video game designer? Maybe they want to work with animals? Or would they rather play with computers? Attending STEM Camp might help them decide. And, they’ll have fun along the way! What’s STEM? It stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. But, this camp won’t feel the least bit like school. Campers will select a STEM area to explore in-depth. Choices include Aeronautics, Robotics, Environmental Science, Animal Science, Forensic Science, or Engineering. Campers will enjoy many hands-on activities and learn about careers in the ﬁeld. The campers will also be taking a ﬁeld trip to Bellisio Foods in Jackson; this will provide a hands-on experience to discover the Science behind creating food products for resale. In addition, this year’s camp will once again feature a visit from OSU’s Dr. Bob (a science guy) and other special programs. Boys and girls currently in 5th through 7th grades from an eleven-county region in southern Ohio are invited to attend STEM Camp at Canter’s Cave this summer. This region includes Adams, Brown, Gallia, Jackson, Highland, Lawrence, Meigs, Pike, Ross, Scioto, and Vinton counties. The camp is being planned and implemented by OSU Extension professionals from several of these counties. Both 4-H and non-4-H youth are invited to attend. Camp registration is at 2pm on Monday, June 4, and end with dismissal at 11:30am on Wednesday, June 6. It will be held at the Elizabeth L. Evans Outdoor Education Center/Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp in Jackson, Ohio. The camp is an ideal setting for such a program, offering an abundance of natural resources and traditional camp activities. During the three-day, two night camp, campers will experience special workshops focused on STEM and some traditional camp activities with a STEM twist. The registration fee to participate is only $80 per camper. Only the ﬁrst 90 registrants will be accepted, and all registrations are due by May 1. Registered youth will receive additional information and forms through mail or email (if you prefer) which will need to be completed. An event brochure/ registration is available on the web at go.osu.edu/stemcamp2018. For more information, contact Michelle Stumbo, Extension Educator, 4-H Youth Development, OSU Extension Meigs County at Stumbo.5@osu.edu, 740-9926696 or Josi Brodt-Evans, Extension Educator, 4-H Youth Development, OSU Extension Scioto County via phone at 740-354-7879 or email at brodt-evans.1@osu. edu. STEM Camp is sponsored in part by a grant from the Ohio 4-H Foundation and OSU Extension in Adams, Brown, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Meigs, Pike, Ross, Scioto, and Vinton counties. Camp is open to all youth completing 5th through 7th grades this spring, without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or disability. Youth do not have to be currently enrolled in the county’s 4-H program to participate in STEM Camp.

TOPS discusses weight loss tips and goals TUPPERS PLAINS — TOPS OH#2013, Tuppers Plains met at the St Paul’s United Methodist Church with Pat Snedden, leader calling the meetings to order with members saying the TOPS (Take off Pounds Sensibly) and KOPS pledges. The KOPS (Keep off Pounds Sensibly) members were given applause for their esteemed efforts. Then all recited the Pledge of Allegiance in unison. During the past two meetings, TOPS songs were led by the group’s song leader, Cindy Hyde. Leader Pat Snedden asked for roll call. Roberta Henderson, weight recorder called each member’s name as roll call was taken. This is the time that each person tells whether they have lost, gained or maintained the same weight for the week. Pounds amounts are not required and no member is ever shamed for a gain but instead this is the time for encouragement. TOPS sisters/ brothers encourage each other in their weight loss/maintenance journey. This group camaraderie is important to the TOPS chapter as members realize that they are all on the same journey. The roll call in itself is a form of group therapy. Best losers for the two weeks were Cindy Hyde and Mary Rankin. Each received a certiﬁcate and the weekly fruit baskets. The weekly fruit basket consists of each member bringing a fruit or vegetable and placing it in the basket. If a member forgets to bring fruit or vegetable they can donate 50 cents. All in all it is a nice gift for the accomplishment of being best loser. Connie Rankin shared her low calorie recipe for Tortilla Pizza. Other members talked about their ﬁtness trackers, keeping food charts and exercise regimes. The weekly best losers shared their success stories. Tips of the week were to “not eat after 8 p.m. and to drink 64 ounces of water a day”. Water beads were distributed to members who needed them. Water beads are used to help keep track of daily water intake. Every time 8 ounces is consumed a bead is moved on the water bead ribbon. When all 8 beads are moved over on the ribbon then the target of 64 ounces of water has been consumed. A purse auction was held as a chapter fundraiser. It was not only a fun activity (members placed items in a purse and then it was auctioned to the highest bidder) but it raised over $130. Most of the funds raised by the chapter go to paying rent on the meeting room, supplies for the group and offsetting the cost of members who want to attend the TOPS Annual State Recognition Conference. Pat also led a program on “Food with Healthy Power”. Cards were distributed to each person and group discussion stemmed from the information read from each card about healthy foods. Ideas for new contest were discussed. This discussion will continue at the next meeting. The meeting was adjourned with the “Helping Hand” circle. For more information about TOPS or about joining the chapter’s support meetings call Leader, Pat Snedden at 740-5419696. The weekly meetings are on Monday at 6 p.m. and last about an hour.

Home health care agency owner sentenced for committing $2M fraud COLUMBUS — Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine joined Benjamin C. Glassman, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio, and other ofﬁcials on Thursday in announcing that the owner of an Athens County home health care agency has been sentenced to prison for committing fraud. Cheryl McGrath, 50, of Guysville, Ohio, was sentenced today in U.S. District Court to 36 months in prison for committing health care fraud and willful failure to pay over tax. The sentence was handed down by Chief U.S. District Judge Edmund A. Sargus, Jr. Joining Attorney General DeWine and U.S. Attorney Glassman in announcing the sentence were Ryan L. Korner, Special Agent in Charge, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Criminal Investigation; Lamont Pugh III, Special Agent in Charge, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Ofﬁce of Inspector General; and Angela L. Byers, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Cincinnati Field Ofﬁce. According to court documents, McGrath owned and operated Home Health Care of Southeast Ohio in Guysville, Ohio since 1993. From 2009 until 2015, McGrath executed a scheme to defraud the Ohio Medic- aid Program by billing on behalf of Home Health Care of Southeast Ohio for home health nursing services that were never rendered. The defendant routinely changed the claim information in the billing software to falsely reﬂect that additional hours of nursing services had been provided and falsely increased the number of nursing visits from one visit per week to between three and ﬁve visits per week. McGrath also submitted claims for nursing services of Medicaid patients who were ineligible because they were either residing in private nursing homes or deceased. In total, her scheme included fraudulent claims in the amount of approximately $2.2 million. “This scheme was intentional and egregious, and we worked hard to pursue a just outcome,” said Attorney General DeWine. “Fighting health care fraud is a priority of my ofﬁce.” From 2009 until 2013, McGrath maintained the books and records regarding payroll for the home health care business. During that time, she submitted Forms 941 to the IRS but did not pay over the federal employment taxes that were due, causing a loss of $366,825 to the IRS. McGrath pleaded guilty to health care and tax fraud charges in June 2017. As part of her plea agreement, McGrath has agreed to pay more than $2.2 million in restitution to the Ohio Medicaid Program and the nearly $367,000 to the IRS. The investigation of this case was conducted by the IRS Criminal Investigation, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services OIG, FBI, and the Ohio Attorney General’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit. Assistant United States Attorneys Jessica W. Knight and Kenneth F. Affeldt and Special Assistant United States Attorney Maritsa Flaherty with Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine’s Ofﬁce are representing the United States in this case. �CHURCH 4 Friday, April 27, 2018 Behind the times Apparently, I am way behind the times. Last week Terry was talking to one of her associates, who during the course of the conversation mentioned something about 4/20. Terry was unfamiliar with the reference. The person informed her that “4/20” is a coded reference to the celebration of marijuana every April 20th. The person Pastor Ron referred Terry to an Branch online article entitled Contributing “What Parents Need to columnist Know About 4/20.” Having read it, Terry showed it to me when I told her that I was not familiar with the term, too. I got online myself and discovered there are several sites with information about this 4/20 reference and the celebration of marijuana. What I have read is that this coded reference and subsequent celebration of marijuana started about 1971, and is primarily promoted by certain companies these days on social media that makes countless connections with kids through advertising. As things stand now marijuana usage is generally on the rise, but alarmingly so among kids. Social media “feeds” promote it with the kids. According to the authors of “What Parents Need to Know About 4/20,” Chen and Filucci, “…their feeds are ﬁlling up with references to 4/20. Consider these from last year: “It is high time for some Pizza Rolls” (Totino’s): Sometimes you need a huge bowl to get you through the day” (Chipotle): and “Secret stash” (Burger King)…Popular, mainstream brands, including Ben and Jerry’s and Denny’s tweet, snap, and ‘gram ads that subtly—-or not so subtly—-show support for 4/20.” Chances are that, unlike me, you are already informed about this reference. Nonetheless, there are a some matters that people associated with the Church need to think about speciﬁcally during this era when efforts are being made to normalize the use of marijuana. First, there are Bible-based moral and spiritual values pertinent for society at large the Church should be loud about in whatever ways available to countermand this current effort to legalize and normalize the use of marijuana in our country. For example, churches may want to use their websites for such purposes to address the issue with their youth. Furthermore, we should proactively uplift the greater value of healthful living as God has intended and as the Bible describes rather than putting one’s self in position for the degenerative results of dis-sobering substances. God calls the shot, “Do not be drunk with wine, but be ﬁlled with the Spirit.” Obviously, the term “marijuana” is not employed in this verse, but it is clearly applicable, for both wine and marijuana are competitive forces that vie for the basis of personality. Personalities are changed and endangered when one imbibes either, and the devil is there to take advantage of it. However, the more healthful way is to choose to allow God to ﬁll a person’s life. After all, God works in our lives for good, not evil. God desires that we “may prosper and be in health.” Should we not pray that all experience the depth of God’s blessings? Second, the Church should take notice that this process of normalizing the use of marijuana is clearly another step of the “spirit of anti-Christ” about which the Bible speaks. This spirit of anti-Christ is essentially that evil inﬂuence in the world that is preparing the population to accept the ascent and time of the actual Anti-Christ. The spirit of anti-Christ works to get people to turn away from the principles of God. People will be more adept to acknowledging the Anti-Christ in due time if the rudiments of Godliness are no longer an abiding inﬂuence. The de-sensitizing of Bible-based virtue and morality seem to be at the heart of an industry promoting the use of marijuana. The people associated with the church would do well to be educated about the manifestations of evil that work to more establish The Evil, and them selves conduct a deeper commitment to the principles and expectations of God. In the mean time, I thought to call my boys to ask if they were familiar with the marijuana reference to 4/20. Each of them said that they were. Jeshua said, “Dad, you are certainly behind the times.” Yep—-I feel like an idiot for sure about it. Pastor Ron Branch lives in Mason County and is pastor of Hope Baptist Church, Middleport, Ohio. Daily Sentinel God says, ‘Give me space!’ How much space have you given God to move in your life? God will consume as much of you as you make available to Him. “‘Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall ﬁnd; knock, and it shall be opened unto you’” (Matt. 7:7 KJV). If you really want God to work in and through your life, then make some space! “Then Jesus told his disciples, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me’” (Matt. 16:24 ESV). What does it mean to deny yourself? It means to surrender your whole heart to God. Create more space for Him to move. Allow Him to consume every ﬁber and facet of your being. But if you, like me, are asking God to consume more of your heart, then look out! Prepare to be uncomfortable. Prepare to be challenged. Prepare to not understand, comprehend, or explain His love. However, the search is worth it. The surrender is worth it. I don’t know about you, but I never want to compromise the power of God because of the views of man.

He was pleasing to really want change. They God in every way, a lamb prefer afﬁrmation. They don’t want to without blemish. He acknowledge their own was tempted as we are, faults and shortcomings. yet was without sin. (cf. They don’t want to have Hebrews 4:15; 1 Peter to admit their ideas are 1:15) When God looked down upon Jesus, He was wrong, and their thinking is misguided. They don’t able to say, “This is My want to learn to be like beloved Son, in whom I someone else. They are am well pleased.” (Matsatisﬁed with who they thew 3:17) are.

Acts 22:16) again, throughout history, man has contrarily and puts on Christ (cf sought, in his quest for Galatians 3:27). Having afﬁrmation and selfput on Christ, the goal gratiﬁcation, to remake God in his own image. Instead of worshiping God as He is, men create idols and imbue those idols with their own follies and faults. They worship and serve the creation, rather than the creator. (cf. Romans 1:23-25) We see this all the time. Individuals who assume that God agrees with their particular views on such a diverse range of topics as Homosexuality, worship, divorce and remarriage, salvation, government, drugs, gambling, anger, drinking, or any of a dozen other issues that arise in one’s life. They believe that if they are ﬁne with a thing, then God is ﬁne with it too. They refuse to believe that God would hold their various choices against them, and they are certain that God must agree with their private opinion of a thing. But that’s not Christianity. That’s not learning to be “like Christ.” That is simply assuming Christ is like us. To learn to be like Christ, we have to learn who Christ really was, what He really taught, and understand and accept where this is different from how we already are.

Not least among such See FAILURE | 5 reasons is our own impatience with Lord is ringing out from you to people everywhere.” The Thessalonians carried a living Gospel. They didn’t need to explain Jesus with words. Their actions carried the weight of their evangelism. In fact, Paul said he didn’t even need to tell people about the Thessalonians’ faith. Why? Because they created an unreserved space for God to move. And look what God did. You see, the church in Thessalonica gave themselves wholeheartedly to God. “‘Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back’” (Luke 6:38 NLT). Today, God wants to challenge us. He wants to check our hearts. He wants to take away the things that hold us back. It’s time to experience the genuine, loving, creative Jesus who forgives our sins and gives us freedom. God says, “Give me space!” Isaiah Pauley is a senior at Wahama High School. He can be followed at www.isaiahpauley.com, or on Facebook at Isaiah Pauley Page. Jesus is like a vine One of my favorite fruits to eat is grapes, but do you know how grapes are grown? Special farms called vineyards plant the grape seeds, and they grow on long and curly vines. If you look at a bunch of grapes, you can see a little of the vine and also the short branches that grow out from the God’s Kids vine. The fruit then Korner forms at the end of Pastor Ann these little branches. Moody Looking at grapes reminds me of a Bible verse from John, Chapter 15, Verse 5. It says, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit. Apart from Me, you can do nothing.” Jesus is talking here. He says in a later verse that God is like the farmer who plants the vineyard, and He (Jesus) is like the vine. Then Jesus says that we are the branches growing out from that vine. And what happens when we let Jesus be our Savior and listen and do what He says; what do our branches produce? That’s right - good fruit just like the grapes. But you know what? We couldn’t become a yummy grape without Farmer God or Vine Jesus. We need both their love and care to grow into sweet good fruit like the grapes. Without them, our vines would wither and die and not produce any fruit. What does good fruit look like for us in our lives at home and school? Are we kind, considerate, loving, helpful, thankful, and cheerful? Do we try to be a good person and do what is right to help those around us? When we keep our lives connected to Jesus, we will grow and produce good fruit just like the grape vine. We will be a blessing to God and to our family and friends. Let’s remember the grape vine, branches, and the good fruit every time we eat grapes. Our Father in heaven says we need to trust in Him always, and we too will have good fruit to share with those around us. Now, go eat those grapes! Let’s say a prayer. Dear Jesus, help us to remember Your example of the grapes growing on the vine. Let us always love and depend on You, so we too can have good fruit on our vines and be a blessing to You and those around us. In Your name we pray, Amen.

Failure, in the hands of God, can turn earthbound eyes to one’s eternal destiny, reveal his need for forgiveness of sin, and impress upon him the urgency of the hour – the moments are ﬂeetly passing that we have to spend in preparing for what comes after life-as-weknow-it-here-on-planetearth. Failure is often a crowbar in God’s hand to pry from us something less than His best for us! And what is His best for us? Eternal fellowship with Him through faith in Jesus Christ! So what will you do with your failures? Linger over them and be quagmired in regret? Will you turn again and again to only those petty dreams you’ve always known? Or will you allow God, through Jesus Christ, to turn your eyes heavenward so that you might even now prepare to meet Him?
