UNSRAT Manado Tariff Service Team Visited the Unud
Bukit Jimbaran - Udayana University received a visit from Sam Ratulangi University Service Team (UNSRAT) Manado, North Sulawesi, Monday (07/08/2017) at Rectorate Building, Bukit Jimbaran Campus. The visit was aimed to obtain inputs that related to the completion of the tariff service document which will be proposed by UNSRAT to the Minister of Finance after the stipulation of UNSRAT as the PK-BLU Work Unit in March 2017. In this visit the UNSRAT team was received by the Head of Planning and Finance Bureau (BPKU) BLU Unud, Head of USDI and the ranks of Finance Division.
Head of BPKU Unud, I Wayan Antara in his speech conveyed permission BLU Udayana University has since 2012. Until now there are many obstacles in implementation, one of them is in terms of asset management. Unud has a land asset that classified as many as 150 hectares. In its management, it is constrained NJOP that really high enough in cooperation with third parties, and this resulted in not optimal in its empowerment.
Furthermore, Wayan Antara stated that the service tariff in Unud consists of tariff of non academic service, remuneration, tariff of Public Service Board (BLU), hospital tariff and other standard of Input Cost. Non-academic service tariffs includes rental of buildings, laboratories and canteen which have a low proportion and need to be increased due to high land NJOP so that the rental fee becomes big. This causes the third party to think about investing, in addition to being limited by the rules in the case of a maximum lease can only be
done for a period of 5 years and may be renewed.
Associated with Remuneration Service, Udayana University already has a system designed by USDI that chaired by Prof. Dr. I Ketut Gede Darma Putra, S.Kom, M.T. For service tariff of Unud Hospital has not yet run optimally because it still has some obstacles in its implementation. This year the physical development is expected to be completed and by 2018 can be fully operational. The University in this case will prepare funds to support the operation of the Hospital.
(The Head of UNSRAT team, Prof. Dr. David P.E. Saerang, SE.,M.Com (Hons) when delivered the aims of the visitation to the Udayana University)
Chairman of UNSRAT Team, Prof. Dr. David P.E. Saerang, SE., M.Com (Hons), stated that this visit was conducted in order to prepare the tariff service document. Further Prof. David delivered the BLU UNSRAT team has been working for 4 months effectively and has been consulted with the Ministry of Finance. The ministry advised the team to make comparisons to the universities around the already BLU. Previously, the team had visited Gorontalo University to get information on service tariff. The team chose Unud because they have Faculty of Medicine so it is expected to get tariff information especially related to medicine. Prof David hoped in the discussion to obtain technical information about service tariffs and remuneration so as to get a new inspiration to accelerate with what has been achieved in UNSRAT. (HM)

The 8th Annual Connell Chili and Beer War was yet another unqualified success. A great time was had by all. Every time I go, I make new friends and feel so welcome and happy. I told my lovely hostess this is one of those events where I sometimes lament about not eating meat. As I look around at all of the simmering creations in the crock pots, I am amazed at all of the creative culinary definitions of chili. My friend and hostess was so considerate. She made a vegan chile so that we could experience more than one of the entries. It was really awesome, chunks of hearty vegetables, beans and soooooo much flavor.
Mr. Host is a beer aficionado. He has probably done the beer tour at OC many times. He shared some fun brews with the crowd by serving tastings of several unique microbrews. I was pleasantly surprised by a pumpkin ale he offered. Nothing better than excellent beer with hot chile!
Our chili was pretty well received. The flavor was rich and smokey. When I discussed it with the prior year's champion (and third place winner this year), she suggested that while it had very good flavor, it needed more texture. I concur, so I made some slight adjustment in the recipe below to add beans for more texture. I used the DePuy or French lentils because A) I had a small amount left in the pantry and B) they are the type of lentils that stay more firm when cooked for long periods of time. I love the smokiness of the paprika and chipotle in this. I hope you do to! This a a pretty spicy chili. If you are more delicate, reduce the amount of jalapeños by half and use a milder chile powder.
Smoky Red Hot Chili
1 cup french lentils (DePuy)
2 1/4 cup water
1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 large pasilla chile pepper, diced
3 medium jalapeños, minced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon hot chile powder
1 tablespoon oregano
1/2 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1teaspoon chipotle powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegan brown or red ale beer
1-15 oz. can fired roasted crushed tomatoes
1-15 oz. can fire roasted diced tomatoes
1-8 oz can El Pato Salsa de Chile Fresco
1-6 oz can tomato paste
3 cups vegetable broth
2 bay leaves
1 cup organic textured vegetable protein (TVP)
1 - 15 oz can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
In a medium sized saucepan add lentils and water. Bring to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer for 25-35 minutes until lentils are tender (they will still be somewhat firm).
In a large stock pot over medium heat add oil then onions and fresh peppers. Saute until softened and onions are translucent, about 7-10 minutes. If mixture starts to stick, add a little water Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chile powder, oregano, cocoa, smoked paprika, cumin, chipotle powder and salt. Sauté until just fragrant, about 1 minute. Deglaze with beer and simmer for about 2 more minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, El Pato, tomato paste, vegetable broth and bay leaves. Combine well. Stir in TVP and beans. Let simmer for at least and hour to let those flavors develop.
Serve with diced green onions and vegan sour cream if desired. Oh and corn bread is a natural for this chili!

As 2018 comes to a close, it's so important to gather all that we harvested, appreciate all that we've done, and then till the chaff back into the soil so that it can enrich what we will be planting in the Spring. Although as a culture, we spend a lot of time socializing, shopping and celebrating during the darkest time of the year, our bodies want to hibernate. By consciously acknowledging the dark, we allow ourselves to regroup for the return of the light.
At Winter Solstice, we have to opportunity to create a personal ceremony where we begin to accumulate the energies we need to nurture that which we want to plant in the spring.
What to do? Here are some suggestions:
Set the energy for 2019 with the SoulPath Alchemy Glyph™at the top of this email: "Be YourSelf; Everyone Else is Already Taken!". You can use it to help you connect with your HigherSelf, Inner Guidance, and your SoulPath for 2019. It is an energy template to help you feel the vibration that is wanting to come in for the next year. If you want a personal glyph, I am creating those, too. So if you want your unique version (or to gift one to a friend), email me here for details: email@example.com.
Create a Winter Solstice Ceremony to mark the beginning of the gathering of the energy inside, beneath the surface. I've been doing this for many years. Check out my winter solstice ceremony suggestions here:
Go out in nature and visit deciduous trees. They have shed their leaves and are putting all their energy into their roots. See what you can learn through observation. You might be able to learn from them, by sensing the energy of hibernation that they are holding.
Plant a bulb indoors and watch it begin to sprout, even in the darkest time of the year. It's not quite the natural way; but it brings hope that you, too, will again emerge!
Plan to join us for the next Web of Light online. Info
Love and Light,

Diversity Today
When SLUH adopted its Minority Action Plan some 25 years ago, about 2.7% of students identified themselves as African American, with even fewer identifying as Hispanic, Asian, or other. Today, African Americans represent 7% of SLUH's student body, Asians 5 percent, and Hispanics 4 percent. Total minority enrollment for the 2018-19 school year is 17%. The recently admitted Class of 2023 represents 18% minority enrollment.
Young Men from All Walks of Life
SLUH's tradition has been, and its vision remains, that Jesuit education be available to talented students from all financial backgrounds. Our students come from 86 different zip codes and 168 middle schools on both sides of the river. Their parents range from corporate executives and university professors, to plumbers and cab drivers. While these young men live miles apart, in two-story homes and single-room apartments, they share one common theme: they have great intellectual ability.
A strong financial aid program supports the socioeconomic diversity of our student body. Since 2008, the amount of direct aid has tripled, and the number of students benefiting from that aid has doubled. Today, SLUH offers a total of $4.1 million dollars in aid to 42% of its students. The average amount of aid is roughly half of tuition.
In support of its commitment to serving minority populations, SLUH devotes 25% of its overall financial aid to African Americans, who represent 7% of the student body. About 95% of African American students receive aid, with the average award representing nearly 82% of the cost of tuition.
Socioeconomic Diversity: By the #s
inclusive environment
At SLUH, we insist upon a safe, inclusive learning environment for our students. There will never be tolerance at SLUH for conduct or speech that is hateful or racist. We believe that every human being is made in the image of God and deserves to be treated with dignity and respect at all times.
In that spirit, we are committed to creating lasting and positive change in our institution with numerous initiatives to ensure equity and inclusion. Some recent activities include:
- Added a Black Student Union group to our club offerings, along with several other affinity groups for minority students, while maintaining our very successful ACES group as an umbrella organization.
- Created a parent equity and inclusion group, called PACES, to advise school leadership, support initiatives, and welcome families.
- Created an official role in the hiring process for our Director of Equity and Inclusion to help ensure careful consideration of minority job candidates.
- Created a Board of Trustees sub-committee, composed primarily of minority parents and alumni, to liaise with PACES and to hold us accountable for identifying needed changes and executing them.
- Featuring racial and social equity as a regular focus of faculty in-service time.
- Identifying curricular pieces to develop a consistent focus on racial and social justice so that SLUH students graduate with the ability to identify and interrupt racism.
- Updating our school aesthetics and religious iconography so that it more fully reflects the diversity of the human race.

Weddings are a magical time in a couple's life. It is the pinnacle of their relationship in which they promise to forever love, cherish, and support their other half. Which is why couples across the globe want to have every second of their special day captured on film.
Hiring wedding videographers has become more and more common these days, as couples want to share with their friends, family, and future children just how special their wedding was.
This is an inspiring business that allows the creator to not only record a special event, but help tell a couple's story. They get to be the driving force behind the scenes that not only records the magic but captures the love they share.
Sounds like an incredible job, right? It's almost like you get to play Cupid and help create a document where couples can rekindle their love for each other each and every time they watch it.
So how do you start? What do you need to do to become a professional wedding videographer?
We're here to show you the ins and outs of the business, provide you with a few essential tips, and get your wedding skills on point. You're only going to get one chance to capture all the shots you need, so you have to make sure you're ready to go beforehand.
Before that big day approaches, come learn just what it takes to become the storyteller on a couple's big day.
So what exactly are we talking about here? What is videography?
As a broad term, videography is simply the artistic process of creating video films. The videographer takes control of the camera, shoots the moment, and then goes back to edit the footage altogether.
This differs from something like cinematography because here, the creator and designer is also operating the camera. Cinematographers generally do not sit behind the camera and only direct others how to shoot the shots they want.
Couple Quick Tips On Becoming A Videographer
Becoming a videographer sounds pretty cool, right? You get to take control of the whole shot, design what it should look like, and put it together. It's like creating your own short film entirely on your own again and again.
If that sounds like something you could get behind, perhaps it's time to start up your own business.
Wedding videographers function in a bit of a niche market but can have unbelievable success after establishing their skills and place in the market.
It is important to understand what it takes to establish yourself as a wedding videographer before trying to do it yourself. That way you can dive in with goals in mind and a plan in hand. So let's learn a bit more about what it really takes.
Having a degree is not required to become a wedding videographer, but it can be helpful. Studying and understanding how to not only properly capture things on film, but learning about lighting, editing, sound mixing, and camera angles can only improve the overall quality of your videography skills.
Plus, having fellow peers in the field, regardless of whether they are going into wedding videography or some other market, can help begin building your network early on.
No matter how good you may be at something, you should always take time to practice and gain experience. This is especially true in the field of wedding videography.
If you really want to go out and make this your business, you're going to need to gain some experience filming weddings specifically. Whether you went to college or not, you will not be a professional wedding videographer right out the gate. Be patient and get some practice.
A great way to do this is to offer a discounted rate to those you know. Your buddy from high school is getting married? Tell him you'll charge half the price of what he saw online. This deal will likely compel people to choose you, plus they feel like they can trust you because they already know you.
The experience you gain from working out the details at your friend's and family's weddings will not only teach you what to do in the future but also help you develop a portfolio you can then share with other potential clients.
This may sound obvious but do a good job. Even though it's for someone you know, you need to produce the highest quality content possible. For both your and their sake.
They want to have a quality keepsake that they can cherish forever, and if they're someone you truly cherish in your life, you'll want the same for them.
If they like their video, they'll tell their friends, co-workers, and other family members how great you were. They may even show your video to them and, if those people like what you've done, you may be able to acquire more clients for the future.
You Need More Than Just A Camera?
Uhm, yeah. You're going to need a lot more than just a camera.
It's actually best to have two different cameras, especially if you have someone else on board to work with you so you can capture multiple angles of the same moment. It's also a great idea to have a backup camera in the event that something unfortunate happens to your camera unexpectedly.
The camera brand and style you use is up to you. There are a ton of valid choices from companies like Sony, Kodak, and Cannon. Choose the camera you are most comfortable with that will also be able to capture the best frame rate and image quality possible.
To keep things steady and easy to maneuver, you're also going to want to invest in a reliable tripod. They are often fairly cheap and will prevent shaky shots on the wedding day.
Microphones are also going to be your best friend on the wedding day. Especially if the wedding is being held outside.
You'll probably want a wired, close-range mic for interviews or close-up shots, and some wireless mics to place onto the groom and the officiant to hear what is happening at the altar. You can also have a few extra running over the speakers or surrounding area to capture even more sound.
Mics should be of very high importance to you because the audio quality on your video will often determine what type of quality people will rate you. Poor audio quality is a quick way to stay stagnant in the wedding videography world.
Making A Business Out Of Your Passions: Wedding Videographer
So you've gotten some experience and all the right equipment, but how do you make your wedding videography business boom?
Hopefully, you've been able to peak some interest from potential clients outside of your family circle thanks to your high-quality content. Now, it's time to conduct yourself like an actual business professional, rather than somebody's cousin.
Simply being able to present yourself well is a great way to make your business flourish. Show up on time for meetings, dress well, have your portfolio ready for viewing, make eye contact, and speak with confidence.
First impressions can often make or break a deal, so if you can present yourself well to these first potential clients, you're more likely to book a job.
Being able to present yourself is great, but that won't do you any good if know one knows you exist.
Marketing has never been easier thanks to the world of social media. Creating a Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, or anything in between can help make people aware of what you do and how well you do it.
Ask your former clients if you can post small snippets from their video. Post regularly so people can see what you've done, what you're doing now, and what you are capable of doing. Start by sharing the page with family and friends, and it will begin to be noticed by more and more people in your area.
You can also try to display yourself at local events, bridal shops or shows, and wedding venues. Create some great-looking posters, potentially a demo reel you can pass out, and watch the potential clients begin to trickle in.
How Much Is Too Much?
Now it's time to ask for a check. How much do you say? How much is your time worth? What's too much to ask for?
The problem with pricing is that you always have to try and stay right in the sweet middle range without selling yourself short.
If your prices are too low, people may think you're not very good, or you might end up putting in more time than the payout is worth. If you charge people too much, they may turn away to find someone else.
So what do you do?
Start out by seeing what other wedding videographers in your area are charging. Prices will tend to differ regionally, so be sure to find people that are in your same geographical area. This will give you a rough idea of what you can expect to make.
It's always a bit better to price yourself a little high and then offer some type of deal to your clients. By offering 20% off or a seasonal special, the clients will feel like they are getting a better deal and be more likely to commit, even if the special price is originally what you were looking to make.
Offering multiple packages is also a good idea. Weddings are expensive and some couples may only be able to afford the basics. By offering tiers of options, each with a higher level of quality, materials, and potential bonuses, your clients will feel more comfortable by knowing that they have a choice.
Understanding Their Love Story
As a wedding videographer, you're not just recording a moment in time. You're writing the couple's love story through film.
Even though it may be easier to have a simple, generic template you fill in with video footage, it might not fully satisfy your clients. You want to make them feel like this video is 100% them.
To do that, you're going to need to know a bit more than just the time and date of their wedding.
It's almost like going out on a first date with this couple. You want to really get to know them and understand their story before the food is gone and you have to depart.
Learn about how they met, where they're originally from, what they like to do together, how they got engaged, why they chose that theme for their wedding, what they do for work, and anything else that may seem relevant to their story.
Speak to them like a friend, and they will be open and honest with you. You really want to learn what makes this couple unique, and then use that to your advantage both on their wedding day and in your editing software.
Finding The Perfect Angle On The Big Day
The day has finally arrived and you're on your way to your client's wedding. What sorts of shots should set up before the big moment arrives?
As we've mentioned earlier, obtaining good imagery and audio is crucial to creating a successful video so you want to make sure you get this part right. It's very important to plan ahead and get there with plenty of time to spare.
Since you should know your couple at this point, there may be a few pre-wedding shots you want to snag before the ceremony begins. Things like the bride putting on her veil, the groom talking with his best man, or the mother of the bride greeting guests as they arrive. It's always better to capture more than you might need than to realize too late that you don't have all the footage later on.
Know this wedding inside and out. Speak with the venues to see if there are restricted areas or if you'll have full access to the space. Invest in a zoom lense for instances where you may not be able to have full range.
Be quick on your feet and be ready to move about the space. A stationary tripod camera is great for recording the wedding from the front, but if you want to really follow the bride as she walks down that aisle, you'll need to be ready to move when she does.
The same is true for the reception. Time moves a lot faster than you might think, and dances will be done in a flash. Only carry the essential items with you so you can be light on your feet.
We've already talked about how important audio is, but having good lighting is also important. Consider setting up a standing light on the dance floor to give you a better shot of their first dance.
Speaking of that first dance, don't forget to capture all those storybook moments on the big day. No matter how unique the couple may be, and how personal you are trying to make their big day, everyone loves to look at the "fairytale" wedding moments.
While you're at it, be sure to keep that camera steady. Those incredible shots will do you no good if your camera is shaking. If you can't use your tripod, because you're moving around too much, concentrate on holding your camera still and keeping things even.
Wow! That's A Lot
We have just thrown a lot of information at you, some of which may feel a bit overwhelming. Let's stop and take a second to recap what we've learned so far.
This video highlights a lot of the main points we've gone over and will help give you a few real-life examples of how to set up your shots, what equipment to have, and how to get to know your client.
Let's Get Personal
Now that you've got all that footage underway, it's time to start thinking about those special components that make the video unique. Utilize all the information you've gathered about the couple and pair it with the footage you shot to create the ultimate masterpiece.
But how do you make things personal after the wedding is done? What about the video itself will scream out to the client that this is their story and theirs alone?
A lot of it comes down to how you put it all together. Finding exactly the right clips, accompanied by the right music and backgrounds will make all the difference to the couple in the long run.
Mash It All Together!
Actually, don't do that. No video should ever feel "mashed," let alone a personalized wedding video. The word you're looking for is "edit."
Editing can ultimately make or break your final product. No matter how good your footage may be, if it's not well organized or accompanied with smooth transitions, it will all be for not.
Depending on which software you have on your computer, you will have a different set of learning curves to overcome. Looking up YouTube tutorials about your specific software can be very helpful to ensure you understand the full capacity of the technology at your fingertips.
Beyond comprehending your software and using it to its full potential, there are a few essential editing tips all wedding videographers should know.
Get rid of those bad parts. Anything that doesn't seem pleasant to watch, things like awkward silences, stuttering interviews, or shaky camera movements, should just be deleted. If you don't like looking at that footage, why would your client? Cut it out sooner rather than later.
You should also try to reel in some of those special effects. While it's great to show off your editing chops, you may not need to fill the video with firework graphics every other minute. Use your effects sparingly and they will provide more of a wow factor for your clients.
The general rule of thumb for editing is that less is more. However, for wedding videos, it's best to forget that rule ever existed.
This moment will only ever happen once in the couple's life. Give them every ounce of memory you can by including more footage, rather than less. They are sure to appreciate it later on.
Things like capturing guests faces and dance moves, filming part of their photo session, and getting a closeup on the cake all will have great meaning to the couple. Don't toss it out right away. See how much you can pack in to truly make them see how special this day was.
Rihanna, Taylor Swift, or Florida Georgia Line?
When you're not showing off a clip of someone talking, chances are you're going to want some music to back up your visuals. Silence in a video can be uncomfortable, which is not something you want in your wedding videos.
But what sorts of music should you play? How do you know what will make for a good background soundtrack?
If you know your couple, you should know what type of people they are and what type of wedding they were shooting for. Country music might be a great choice for those looking for a southern-style wedding, but classical music may be more fitting for a highly traditional couple.
The important thing to remember here is that the wedding is the most important part of the video. Your music should not be so loud or obnoxious that it distracts the viewer from the wedding itself.
Keep the music subtle and minimal in volume, especially if you keep it playing under audio from guests (which we recommend you do.) Instrumental music is often a great choice as it will not distract others with its words.
Keep the tone professional while also adding a personal touch with music that fits both the wedding and the couple's style.
Putting In Those Final Touches
Time to wrap it all up and send it out! Export your video, burn copies of the discs, and create a nice case for the disc to live in. Make every last detail count before you hand it off to your client.
An important tip here is to make sure you double check your work. There is nothing worse than overlooking a small detail that ruins the entire piece.
Be sure to watch the whole video through. Twice. Take a good look at all the components of the video, like the spelling of names, the audio levels, the transitions, and the video clarity.
Be sure to watch the whole video through. Twice. Take a good look at all the components of the video, like the spelling of names, the audio levels, the transitions, and the video clarity.
Produce the best work you can each time you create a project to ensure, not only that your clients are satisfied, but that your business continues to get clients in the door.
Top Tips To Take You Further
You've done it! You've successfully completed your task and have given the client everything they wanted.
Well, sort of. It would be nearly impossible for you to have not learned a tip, a skill, or realized you missed a shot while working through all your footage. Nobody's perfect, and if you really want to make this business flourish, you're going to need to continue to learn and grow your skills.
To help you along your way, we've created a small list of tips to remember that will hopefully get your foot in the wedding videographer door and keep your foot inside for years to come.
Important Tips for Upcoming Wedding Videographers
Feeling Good About A Job Well Done
As a wedding videographer, you are helping create lifelong memories for your clients. These videos will forever be cherished and be shown again and again to both rekindle love and remind others of their love.
You should be proud! This is an incredible business with more than just money as a reward. You're capturing an essential moment in people's lives and giving them the satisfaction of having it all documented.
You have done well, and should feel good about your work after it's all done. Enjoy the moments you have created, and enjoy what you do. There's nothing more special than using your talent to give others a lifelong gift.

In my life, certain quotes and phrases have always stuck with me. Whether it is good advice, random fact, or just something I find interesting, I just remember it.
Before saying something harmful to someone, walk a mile in there shoes. That way when you say it, you're a mile away…and you have their shoes. (middle school)
In all the events of your life, there is one common factor…you. You may not be able to control a situation, you can't control other people, but you can control yourself and how you respond. (college)
Some say that the youth are the future of the church. I disagree. Youth are the church. (high school)
This past Sunday, I was reminded of the last statement. One that has stuck with me for many years. And just reinforced how powerful this statement really is.
When you look around, you can not simply say that these youth are the future of the church. Yes, that is true…but that also says that at the moment, they are nothing…a sentiment I strongly disagree with…
Youth are the church.
This past Sunday was Youth Sunday here at Church of the Holy Communion here in good ole Memphis, Tennessee.
This was not your typical Youth Sunday where some youth played some minor roles in the church but they did everything.
They wrote the Eucharistic Prayer, they wrote the Prayers of the People, they wrote and delivered the sermon, they were the Eucharistic Ministers, they did the readings, they chose and performed all the music, they even made up the choir. An entire Sunday morning service…written and lead by the youth of the church.
Another great aspect of the morning was the privilege of having Dr. Andrew Zirschky join us to lead our Formation hour before the service.
Hey talked about the new belief that is rapidly growing in the church in today's society. I concept outlines in the Raising Teens in an Almost Christian World: A parent's Guide, by Dietrich Kirk.
I wanted to highlight a few bullet points that are covered in the book regarding youth in the church.
The results came after years of research by the National Study on Youth and Religion which Dr. Zirschky was apart of.
Major Findings:
1. Most American teenagers have religious beliefs.
2. Organized religion doesn't matter much to most teenagers.
3. For a significant minority of teenagers, faith does not matter.
4. Adolescents are incredibly inarticulate about their faith.
5. Religious vitality differs by tradition.
6. Highly religious teenagers fare better than less religious teenagers.
7. Teenagers mimic religious devotion of their parents.
What does all this mean?
In the book, they call this trend in the church "Benign Whateverism". But what does that mean?
It means that most teens these days do believe in a god or some deity but when it comes to how they feel about it…eh, it's whatever.
In a society where "church" is simply getting up and going to a service on Sunday mornings and after that we just go about our everyday lives…is it really surprising that most teens have this attitude towards religion?
I have a challenge for you…
The next time you gather with your family for dinner, after the usual check-ins, and heyhowareyas (because those are important conversations too)…take it a step further.
Ask your parents, ask your kids, your friends…What do you think of when you hear the word church?
What is it and what does it mean?
Have a conversation about that for a little while and just see where it goes.
Then ask what is it that Jesus taught us about how we should live?
How different are your two answers?
Does that feel right to you? Why when we ask what does the church, the house of God, mean and what did Jesus teach…why are those two separate conversations!
Why can't they be the same.
They can. It will just take work.
In my years of working with youth, they has been one constant result when research is done to determine how to keep youth active in the church as the move into young adulthood.
In a word I would say it is relationships.
More than the relationships the youth build with each other in youth groups. More than the ones they build with their Youth Minister. More than the ones they build with the volunteers with the youth program. More than the priest. But the WHOLE congregation.
In John 20:16, Jesus has risen and is no longer in the tomb when Mary Magdalene. When Jesus appears, he calls her by name, "Mary."
The impact that had on Mary's life was tremendous.
In John 21:17, another time the resurrected Jesus makes an appearance but this time to the disciples. 'Simon son of John…"
Again, calling him by name and again having a tremendous impact on the life of Peter.
One thing I have grown to believe is that we can be the living example of Christ to others. By the Holy Spirit working through us in our lives we can be Christ to others. And it can be something as simple as calling someone by name.
Imagine the impact that it could have on someone's one life when instead of walking by and ignoring someone, or walking by and saying a simple, "Hey, how are ya?"
What if you said "Hey Michael! How are you doing today?"
What if we not only said that, what if we meant it.
What if instead of having the church be some place we go on Sunday but it being this thing that we live.
What if we all made an effort to take the time to talk to a child, a youth, and an adult at the church…more than just a simple hey.
If we shift from being a church to living the church then we take a step towards fighting benign whateverism.
We take a step closer to living out the church. And not simply preparing the youth to be the church but include them in the church.
Cause that is what they are. They are the church.

The Voter Suppression Myth
Democrats believe their own bull—- about the Side of History so much that they can't imagine losing an election, because if you have History on your side how can you lose except by someone using the Dark Side of the Force. Hence the daily claim of the left that Democrats have lost because of voter suppression. Kamala Harris, for examples, has claimed: "Let's say this loud and clear — without »
Why felon disfranchisement makes sense
George Will argues in favor of broad restoration of felons' right to vote. How broad he doesn't say, but his column effectively presents the case for a more expansive restoration than exists in many jurisdictions. There are good arguments against moving in that direction, however. Roger Clegg presents them in a critique of Will's piece. This is an issue over which reasonable people can differ, but I think Clegg has »
The North Carolina redistricting case — political warfare by judicial means
Modern voting rights cases involving redistricting can be thought of as a tale of two dilemmas — one legal, one political. The legal dilemma is this: if a state legislature takes race into account in drawing districts, its action is subject to challenge under the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution; but if it doesn't take race into account, its action is subject to challenge under the Voting Rights Act. »
Court strikes down Guam's racist voting scheme
Six years ago, retired Air Force officer Arnold Davis, a resident of Guam, tried to register to vote on a plebiscite regarding Guam's future. His application was rejected and marked as "void" by the Guam Election Commission Why? Because Guam banned residents from registering or voting unless they are Chamorro "natives," which to the territorial government means people whose ancestors were original inhabitants of Guam. Chamorros constitute only about 36 »

TORONTO — With some workers set to go on strike, others trying to reach an agreement after their contract has expired and still others set to enter a gruelling set of negotiations, the Canadian Auto Workers won't be taking a summer holiday any time soon.
About 250 members of the union could be on strike as early as Wednesday morning if they're unable to reach a deal with their employer, a division of heavy-equipment dealer Toromont Industries Ltd. (TSX:TIH).
Meanwhile, a CAW contract with Navistar has expired without a new agreement and the two sides have ceased negotiations for the time being.

EATON — Preble County's Emergency Management Agency (EMA) just finished hosting mitigation meetings, according to Director David Anderson. During the Preble County Board of Commissioners' meeting on Wednesday, Jan. 24, Anderson stated he sent out 172 invites, planned nine meetings over three days, and attendance for the meetings were good.
During the meeting, Anderson stated that there had been 46 attendees, but they were expecting 10 more before the day (and the last meeting) finished.
"What are the requirements for the townships and the villages?" Commissioner Denise Robertson asked.
"First of all, they need to participate in the planning of the meetings. I'm not sure how many have and haven't yet, I'm still checking off boxes to see. There are two more meetings coming up and then they will do the review. They will have the opportunity to look over just their section and to make sure everything is correct with that," Anderson explained.
"Once that happens and everyone is happy with it, I will come to the board and you guys will accept it through resolution, as the county mitigation plan. Then, it goes to the State and they have to approve it. Then it goes to FEMA and once they approve that, the Townships will be fine since the commissioners adopted the resolution, but the villages have to do a resolution on their own. They have 12 months to get it done."
Anderson added, while they have 12 months, it is recommended that they adopt the resolution as soon as possible. While only one representative has to be present, Anderson sent the invite to everyone he could think of, so his bases were covered.
There was a Weather Spotters Class scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 6 for 6:30 p.m. at the Gratis Fire Department. Anderson explained, "We try to hold this every year. First responders and general public are more than welcome to come to this, it takes about two hours. Once you get finished taking that class, then you can be a Weather Spotter for the National Weather Service.
"They give you an email address and a unique number. You can send them a message about what is going on. It helps them do a better job knowing what happened where. They're sitting behind a radar and while they're good at what they do, it is not the same as boots on ground."
In other news:
•Anderson is working on the fifth quarter EMPG reimbursement.
•They did receive $10,834.21 in FY17 EMPG fourth quarter reimbursement.

Never before have I felt such responsibility and been so uplifted while producing a theatre performance: after all, the love story of Barbora and Žygimantas Augustas is genuine, sorrowful and controversial. No one knows the exact turns within the story and different chronicles contain only bits and pieces, thus I was enjoying a certain freedom of creativity. The whole action is transposed into an abstract scenery, the characters are wearing stylized costumes of the epoch. I am creating live theatrical action through gentle idealization of the love story, slightly personalized interpretation of facts and my own feminine intuition. I'm not really interested in finding a modern form of the production – the main concern is the action itself, where fates of people are closely intertwined. (Choreographer Anželika Cholina)
