AROUND TOWN Greenwood Little League team places 5th in state-wide competition For the first time in more than 20 years, the Greenwood Little League All-Starts made it to the District 12 State Championship, placing 5th in the recent competition. “It was a fun team to be on and I have a lot of friends on this team,” said player, Matt Luechtefeld. “I like being around a lot of other players because they push me to be my best. We used teamwork and helped each other stay up and not get down as a team. When some of our teammates would get sad that they struck out we would all help them out.” AROUND TOWN Greenwood’s Carefree Crocodiles break conference records The Carefree Crocodiles, a swim program in Greenwood, dominated the Community Swim Conference held July 19 at the University of Indianapolis with 535 points (they won by 182 points). Brady Ferguson tied the conference 50 freestyle record for 11-12 year old boys (time of 26.69) Drew Shellenberger broke the conference 50 breast stroke record for 11-12 year old boys (time of 33.26).

Submitted Photo Bottom: Chic-Fil-A cows made an appearance for the library's fundraiser. The Greenwood Middle School football field was subjected to all kind of games, fun and yes, even falling cows on July 19. “The Great Cow Drop” (an event presented by Chick-fil-A) was held to raise funds for the Greenwood Public Library. This was the second year for the event and GPL officials hope it will become a regular, annual occurrence. Jane Weisenbach, Director of Development at GPL, said the funds raised will go to supporting events and activities regularly hosted by the library. “Funds will be going toward programming and various events like our preschool story times, regular teen events,” Weisenbach said. Attendance was about the same as it was last year, according to Weisenbach. “We had somewhere between 300 and 400 participants,” she said. “We love the event; it’s a lot of fun and everybody has a great time.” “There was face-painting, we had a bounce house, a simulated surf machine, a horse-drawn wagon ride, all kinds of booths, about 15 crafters with things from jewelry to scientific things,” Weisenbach said. “We started off the whole day with Silly Safaris which was a cool live animal show; (they) had an owl, groundhog and even a baby alligator.” At noon the “cow parade” began, marshalled by the horse-drawn wagon, followed by Chick-fil-A’s cow mascots and kids going around the track. It all led up to the “cow drop” – stuffed animal cows were dropped over the field from a helicopter and kids scoured the field for the cows and prizes. “We look forward to doing it again next year,” Weisenbach said. 4 Week of July 24-30, 2014 • ss-times.com COVER STORY The Southside Times To Market, To Market Southside’s selection of new and long-time farmers markets continues to grow Karla Richardson and an employee Jennifer Self were instrumental in organizing the market, which Richardson said has gained a goodBy Nicole Davis sized crowd each Sunday.

The location of the Emporium Beech Grove Farmers Market is at the corner of Churchman and Emerson Avenues, in front of the Emporium Flea Market. “The goal is to expand and get more vendors and to get them weekly,” Coffman said. “The response has been great. It shows there is such a need in Beech Grove. Our biggest goal is to bring people to Beech Grove.” Goods for sale are strictly comprised food and produce vendors. “I think people will be impressed with the vendors we do have,” Coffman said. “They are local and they are strictly food and produce vendors. The quality is great and price is great for what you get. Farmers markets are a big deal and I’ve always wanted Beech Grove to have one. We have two of them now and I’m very excited. One brings a lot of people to Main Street and the other brings people to stop on Emerson Ave., and that’s great for Beech Grove.” Center Grove Greenwood resident Josh List intended to start a farmers market in the Center Grove area near the end of July. Although the location did not work out, he said he would still like to start a market in his community. “I think Center Grove community needs some sort of farmers market someplace that they can come and get their produce,” List said. “I don’t want to compete with the other one in Greenwood, so we decided to do this on a Saturday afternoon. We are searching for business owners that would support us utilizing their parking lot space.” In addition to his full-time job, List operates Just Add Water Gardens in Greenwood and makes his own barbeque sauce.

He currently attends a market in Greenfield on Saturday mornings. “The environment at (farmers markets) are friendly, something you don’t get everywhere else,” List said. “At the famers market, you have a relationship with the grower, the actual person producing the item. You get to know where it comes from; it’s amazing.” List said he still hopes to finalize plans for a market in the area and is looking for the support of a local business owner for the space to host the weekly gathering. For more information, visit JustAddWaterGardens.com. “Hopefully by the end of the year we can have something, even if it’s just one market saying we will be open next year,” List said. Southport Seeing a need in her Southport community, Nancy Miller organized the Southport Farmers Market late in the 2013 season. With five vendors signed up last year, the Southport market has now grown to 18. “Our goal is to bring fresh produce, home baked goods, grass-fed beef, cheeses and eggs to the Southport community,” Miller said. “The weather this year has been excellent. We’ve only had one day it was kind of iffy, and we had a little rain, but people got out of their cars with umbrellas. Now that people know we’re here, they say we’ll be back.” Of the 18 registered vendors, Miller said an average of 11-12 will attend regularly. The Southport market includes everything from baked goods, honey, meat, cheese, food trucks, Oberweis dairy and fresh produce. “(This market) has potential but it’s been a little slow,” said vendor, Earl Smith who has attended farmers markets for 10 years and has been to the Southport market since it opened. Greenwood The Greenwood Farmers Market is in its 23rd season this year and continues to grow. Market manager, Jeff Allen, says he came to the Greenwood market 12 years ago as a place to sell the honey from his own bees. He and his wife remained involved because of the support they were given through the market, as far as sales and customers. “My wife and I feel very strongly about the market and what it provides for the community,” Allen said, who became a manager five years ago. “I wanted to give back to the community. This is where I live and I want to give back.” Allen said when he first started attending, there were approximately 10 vendors, including him. There are now 46 registered vendors, with an average of 33-35 showing up each Saturday, the biggest day. The Greenwood market will run through Oct. 11. “Our vendors are very great, wonderful people,” Allen said. “They are dedicated to what they do. They’re fun to be around. Then our customers that come through, I enjoy watching them. The kids love it. It’s a safe, clean environment for families. I enjoy watching them look at things and see their interests that they have.” This is second year for the Greenwood Farmers Market to take place in the parking lot of the Greenwood United Methodist Church. It was previously located outside of the Greenwood Public Library, and Allen said they needed to move because as the market grew, the area became too busy, with people needing to park across the street and traffic backing up on Madison Ave. Allen said the economy has been a challenge, and with new grocery stores such as Fresh Thyme and Earth Fare opening up with a focus on a healthier, farmers market-type at- Beech Grove Farmers Market When: Sundays, 1-6 p.m. Where: 510 Main St., Beech Grove.

Q: What do you like best about summer weekends? "I like summer weekends because I usually spend them with my friends. It is my last summer with them before I go to college. It is pretty special because I love them all. It is kind of like an extra family that I spend time with." Amy Frye of Franklin Township "Most importantly I like hanging out with friends and family. Specifically I enjoy going to the Beech Grove Summer Concert Series in the park (Sarah Bolton Park). It is usually a good time for friends and family to come hang out at no cost." Jim Coffman of Beech Grove Visit us online and post your community news! facebook.com/ TheSouthsideTimes "We like to get away when it is warm and go visit state parks to camp and canoe. Summit Lake State Park just outside of New Castle is one of our favorites. We are planning on going next month to Shades State Park. Any of the state parks within a couple of hours here we try to hit up." Billy Seiver of Perry Township "I like best about summer weekends is that we can all get out on our (motor) bikes and go downtown, cruise to Broad Ripple, just get out and hang together and enjoy the weather. Come down and have ice cream here (at Mrs. Curl Ice Cream Shop and Outdoor Cafe in Greenwood). There is a whole bunch of us who ride. We just meet up and there may be a pack of five, there may be a pack of 20. We just meet up and we just ride. It doesn't have to be anybody we know. Everybody is really friendly."

I HAUNTS & JAUNTS VIEWS The Southside Times ss-times.com • Week of July 24-30, 2014 OUR VIEW 7 HUMOR Vaccinate children before school begins Back to school means getting back “into the swing of things” but it also means more than just picking up all the necessary school supplies. Indiana State Law requires students to be up-to-date on immunization and vaccinations and it is required for enrollment in the child’s school. A tempest of controversy over whether or not vaccines have an adverse effect – specifically, whether vaccines could cause autism or not – has been roiling ever since The Lancet published a paper by Dr. Andrew Wakefield in 1998 that linked autism and the MMR vaccine "Rest assured – there is nothing to fear. Vaccines are safe. For more information on vaccine safety, visit cdc.gov." (for measles, mumps, and rubella). However, The Lancet has since retracted (in Feb. 2010) Dr. Wakefield’s paper because of questionable ethical approval in the way the research was presented. Even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cites a study in the Journal of Pediatrics from March, 2013, which concluded that “there is not a causal relationship between certain vaccine types in autism.” Because of the irrational fear spurred on by Wakefield’s (and others’) perpetuation of his “findings,” vaccination rates in the United States declined while cases of measles and mumps rose markedly. Rest assured – there is nothing to fear. Vaccines are safe. For more information on vaccine safety, visit cdc.gov. If there ever is cause for concern about vaccinations or basic healthcare, the CDC should be the first place you go for information. To find out which vaccinations your child needs, visit your school’s website or go to nvic. org for a comprehensive list from kindergarten to higher education. Stay healthy, Southsiders! BELIEVE IT!

This annual event, which was held last week, is quickly becoming one of our favorites. It is very well organized, the food is good and it is sold at a reasonable price – and, oh, the money raised benefits the community. This event, too, shows the relevancy of service clubs and what they can mean to a community. Finally, we’d be remised if we didn’t give the Baxter YMCA a pat on the back for giving up its space to hold the event. The space plus the parking doesn’t get any better for an organization such as the Kiwanis who want to put something like this on. Thanks again, to Steve Hadley, president of the Kiwanis of Perry Township and all of the members for this very important organization that serves the Southside so well. ……………… Interesting times we live in, indeed. With all of the international crises we have going on, there was a time, not so long ago, that you could count on whomever occupied the Oval Office to talk about it and show some leadership. Not so any more. It looks as though with a little over two years left in his term, our President has officially checked out. His chief concerns, it seems, is meeting celebrities, fundraising and going on vacation. Not necessarily in that order.

Tips to avoid aggressive driving during summer driving FEATURE For The Southside Times by AAA With warmer temperatures, congested roads and the busy summer travel season in full swing, AAA Hoosier Motor Club [3] is reminding drivers about ways to avoid aggressive driving and road rage. Aggressive driving is intentional, dangerous behavior that jeopardizes the safety of motorists and pedestrians. According to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, aggressive driving is a serious problem on our nation's roads and highways and a factor in up to 56 percent of fatal crashes. Road rage is less common than aggressive driving but far more dangerous. Road rage is deliberate, uncontrolled anger that leads to violence or the threat of violence on the roads. Both aggressive driving and road rage are unpredictable, can be ignited quickly, and can occur at any time. In addition, numerous studies indicate that we are all capable of acting out our anger when we're behind the wheel, no matter our age, gender, or how considerate we might be in other circumstances. When motorists were surveyed, they consistently identified the following situations as ones that would anger and provoke them. AAA Hoosier Motor Club reminds drivers to steer clear of these types of situations: * Cutting People off: If you accidentally do cut someone off, try to apologize with an appropriate gesture, such as a hand wave. If someone cuts you off, slow down and give them plenty of room instead of seeking revenge. * Driving slowly in the left lane: Even if you're driving the speed limit, if you're in the left lane and someone wants to pass, be courteous. Move over and let them pass so you don't anger drivers behind you. The left lane is actually intended as a passing-only lane; otherwise, you're expected to move to the right. * Tailgating: Follow the two-second rule: Note when the vehicle in front of you passes a landmark. It should take you at least two seconds to reach the same point. If you're being tailgated, put on your turn signal and pull over to allow the vehicle to pass.

FINANCE DISPATCHES n Tips for saving after 50 Savings need to be a top priority, especially for those who haven’t been saving. Keeping in mind to save for health is also a crucial detail; living longer means additional healthcare and healthcare costs are often left out of the savings equation. Make sure to understand your premiums and how much of healthcare is covered in order to not be caught off guard. – Yahoo Finance n Move up in your career Career coach Caroline Ceniza-Levine of SixFigureStart offers a few words of advice: Aim for the highest level you can get. Be able to articulate yourself with quantifiable descriptions – this is a strong interview technique that highlights your experience while boosting your credibility. Be levelheaded about asking for a raise or promotion and be able to back up why you’re asking. – Yahoo Finance n Dividing up in a divorce Assets left behind in a divorce can cause quite a few headaches if there are disagreements about debt and other finances. Credit history and credit score are directly affected by an ex-spouse’s mortgage payments on any joint credit account. Aside from the divorce decree, the only way to expunge your name is for the other party to sell the house or refinance the mortgage and take your name off the loan. – Credit.com $1 OFF $4.00 OFF .00 Any Purchase of $10 or More Any Purchase of $25 or More WHEATLEY’S DOWNTOWN WANNAMAKER n Eight cities with most retirees 1.

In addition to the wind in our faces, unobstructed panoramic views and the experience of the road on two (sometimes three) wheels, most of us really enjoy the sound a motorcycle makes. Most motorcyclists understand that noise exposure over time damages their hearing; unfortunately, many define noise as that emanating from the bike itself or other road and traffic conditions. Many bikers believe that only those that do not wear full-face helmets are exposed to excessive noise. While somewhat correct, the real hearing “killer” is wind noise. Wind noise is the result of turbulence produced around the head while in motion. The result is irreversible hearing loss/damage over a period of time when adequate hearing protection is not worn. Like shooting and aviation noise exposure, the amount of exposure to the inner ear is compounded every hour you ride. To put this in perspective, an average worker surrounded by levels of approximately 85 to 90 decibels for an eight-hour day will not exceed the limits of exposure time within 24 hours. However, when the sound levels exceed 100 decibels, exposure time is reduced to two hours. If sound levels exceed 115 decibels, exposure time is reduced to 15 minutes. Typical "wind noise" at highway speeds can measure up to 103 decibels. At these levels, a rider begins to experience physical fatigue from excess noise exposure, and puts him or her into a position of needing a hearing aid later in life. Another common motorcycle riding experience is a temporary loss of your hearing level immediately following a long ride. Having this experience over time will result in permanent hearing damage. Everyone has experienced this at one time or another, whether it is from going to loud dance halls, or concerts or even work, but this is a common occurrence for motorcyclists who do not wear adequate hearing protection while riding their bike. There are several types of hearing-protection devices on the market. A custom set of ear molds is the best answer for suppressing sound. They provide excellent noise-suppression values and are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. (One additional recommendation is to check with local state officials on the regulations of wearing hearing protection. See the AMA web pages on State Motorcycle Laws, americanmotorcyclist. com/Rights/State-Laws.aspx.)

Ordinance no. 14-37, which would amend the Greenwood Municipal Code to add a bill dispute resolution procedure, passed its first reading, 8-1. n What it means: Prior to this amendment, customers of sewage works would report to the Controller’s Office in the event of a bill dispute. Now, however, customers who believe their bill contains an error or believe they have been billed incorrectly may seek a resolution by “1) A customer may make an appointment to meet informally with the Controller to discuss any alleged errors and the Controller shall be empowered to correct any incorrect charges in his sole discretion. 2) If the above meeting does not resolve the dispute to the customer’s satisfaction, the customer may request an audience before the Board of Public Works and Safety who shall place the matter on its agenda for a public meeting where it shall hear evidence and make a written determination of its findings regarding the dispute.” n What’s next: According to the ordinance, it will be “in full force and effect from and after its passage, approval and publication according to law.” Southport City Council July 21, 7 p.m. n What happened? New ordinances 14.07.01 – 03 and a Resolution on The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan were proposed. n What it means: Ordinance 14.07.01 requested additional appropriations for the police department, totaling $8,430 for supplies. This ordinance was passed. Council member Larry Tunget proposed to table the remaining two ordinances, on establishing parks and police department donation funds, and the resolution because he said the process should be to run them through a committee and an attorney before being brought to council. A debate occurred as to why this procedure was being questioned. The ordinances were voted on and were tabled. n What’s next: Police can obtain their funds to purchase needed equipment with the passed ordinances. The remainder will be voted for the first reading at the August council meeting. ……………… In brief... • Southport Police Chief Thomas Vaughn gave his updates for the department.

Miami University is a public university located in southwestern Ohio offering 120 degree programs in humanities, science, engineering, business, education and fine arts. 13 A viable vision for Perry Township GOVERNMENT WATCHDOG GREENWOOD COMMON COUNCIL ss-times.com • Week of July 24-30, 2014 FEATURE By Eric Ellis The Greater Southside Business Alliance (GSBA) invited business owners and citizens of Perry Township as well as community and civic leaders and public officials to a planning luncheon at the Resurrection Lutheran Church on 445 E. Stop 11 Rd. on July 23. Those present were invited to voice their concerns about ways to improve the overall state of the Southside community. Kevin Wheeler, CIC at Cardinal Insurance and Government Affairs Chair, emceed the luncheon and began by stating, “We are here because we want to celebrate what is good about the Southside. We also want to acknowledge the needs and issues facing our community.” Joan Miller, President of the GSBA, said she’s been a business owner in the Southside area for more than 29 years and a resident for 10. “I’ve noticed a decline over the years,” said Miller. “And that’s what has prompted me to be a charter member of the GSBA… The plan we develop today will make certain we meet the needs of our businesses and residents.” Paul Brakke, co-owner of the Emerson House and Secretary, said the GSBA is a “viable and vital organization” that will serve the purposes of the Southside community. “When we have good businesses, it provides good places to work,” Brakke said. “When we have good places to work, it makes everything about the community better.” After a brief video presentation highlighting the various areas of improvement and dilapidation on the Southside – especially on Madison Ave. – guests were invited to a brainstorming activity over lunch to voice concerns and offer suggestions about ways to improve Perry Township and the surrounding areas. Several ideas that were brought up were: • Refurbishing dilapidated business and home façades • Building more bike lanes/paths and trails • Creating a Southside welcome wagon • Creating more ESL (English as a second language) programs for Chin-Burmese and Hispanic residents • More sidewalks along Perry streets • Constructing a gateway with a logo • Creating a Southside business incubator • Promoting women-owned businesses • Bringing back “putt-putt” and other family-oriented businesses • Cleaning up Madison Ave. (from Terrace Ave. to Thompson Rd.) • Creating a young business leaders organization • Creating a cultural center Before the luncheon’s adjournment, Wheeler said the GSBA would get together to discuss the ideas that had been brought up in order to formulate an achievable plan. “We will meet again in six months with a progress report,” Wheeler said. “And to hear your new ideas as well.” For more information, visit gsbaweb.org or call (317) 787-1300. Updates to the city of Beech Grove READERS' WRITES Recently, I had the opportunity to attend the grand opening of the new ADM Mill on Bethel Avenue. After a year's worth of construction, this state-of-the-art mill is open for business. With that comes the prospect of new business and new taxes for our city. ADM Milling has invested over 30 million dollars in our city with this project. What a wonderful asset to our city and what good corporate partner they have become, not only to the City but to our school district as well. This comes off the heels of a grand opening ceremony for the Kinetrex Energy facility located on Big Four Road. The ceremony held in June capped off more than a year's worth of redevelopment that will change the face of our city for years to come. We are now home to one of the largest distributors of natural gas for motor vehicles in the Midwest. I suspect that the distribution capabilities will double within the next couple of years. This also constitutes new partnerships for our city and school district as well. This is yet another wonderful asset to our city. I must report that we are working with the folks at Fransican Alliance. Much progress has been made as we are working hand in hand with them to garner a new beginning for the hospital property and we certainly look forward to any announcement that may come from the alliance (sooner than later). In the next couple of months or so, we look forward to conducting our third round of paving and sewer projects that are scheduled to take place throughout our city. Finally, a big thanks to the Redevelopment Commission as they are beginning to take down all of the remnants of the Digital City project that was undertaken in 2006. Massive failures such as this one are one of the reasons that the legislature recently enacted rules concerning Redevelopment Commissions and wireless internet components. Again, thanks to the Redevelopment Commission for their good work in this matter. Dennis B.

It seems like yesterday when I, along with many others, viewed the “test” that would be the precursor to the first 400. As an avid IndyCar fan, I met that opportunity with a bit of skepticism, however, as the years have progressed I truly believe it was a wise decision to bring the good ol’ boys to 16th and Georgetown. Here’s to many more 400s! Below is a complete schedule of this weekend’s events and a small “did you know” about the Brickyard through the years. Be safe and enjoy the weekend. ~ Rick Myers, Publisher Did you know? 1. The first Brickyard 400 took place in 1994 and was won by Jeff Gordon in the No. 24 DuPont Chevrolet. 2. From 1994-2000, the Brickyard 400 was actually scheduled on a Saturday, but made its first Sunday debut in 2001. 3. The fastest official lap ever recorded during the Brickyard 400 was 186.293 mph, a record set by Casey Mears during qualifying in 2004. 4. In 1998, Jeff Gordon won the largest ever winner’s purse for the Brickyard 400 at a staggering $1,637,625. 5. The oldest winner of the Brickyard 400 was Bill Elliot, who won in 2002 at the age of 46 years and 300 days. – indianapolismotorspeedway.com SPECIAL SECTION published by Times Leader Publications, LLC 4 Check out track information!

A versatile sauce that complements your family’s favorite meals is one way to do it. Whole Onion & Fresh Tomato Sauce takes only 20 minutes to make. Whatever fresh tomatoes you have on hand — cherry, heirloom, plum, beefsteak — will work just fine in this recipe. The chopped tomatoes, along with roasted red bell peppers, garlic, fresh herbs and tender, slightly sweet-tart Holland-style onions from Aunt Nellie’s, result in a tasty, chunky sauce that’s destined to become your go-to, timesaver recipe. Just quickly saute the garlic, then add the onions and remaining ingredients for a recipe that is practically no cook. Adaptable to any dish This flavorful sauce can be used in a number of ways. It’s a perfect pasta partner, tossed with angel hair or spaghetti, or spooned over ravioli or tortellini. Finish with shredded Parmesan cheese, if you like. Add an additional layer of flavor and a fresh burst of color by topping plain grilled or sauteed chicken or fish (tilapia, halibut, cod) with the sauce just before serving. Use these pantry-staple onions to provide a subtle pop of flavor (and extra vegetables) to other favorite dishes including soups, stews and sauces. Visit auntnellies.com to find more delicious ways to use onions and other jarred vegetables in your menus. Aunt Nellie’s Whole Onion & Fresh Tomato Sauce Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 5 minutes Servings: 4 (1/2-cup) servings • 1 jar (15 ounces) Aunt Nellie’s Whole Holland-Style Onions • 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 1/2 cup white wine, chicken broth or vegetable broth • 1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes • 1/2 cup chopped roasted red bell peppers or sweet piquante peppers • Chopped fresh herbs (such as basil, thyme, oregano, chives) Drain onions; discard liquid. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat until hot. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute. Add onions and wine; cook 2-3 minutes or until most of liquid has evaporated. Stir in tomatoes and peppers; heat through. Stir in herbs, as desired. Note: To serve, toss sauce with cooked pasta. Or, serve over grilled or sauteed chicken breast or fish, such as cod, tilapia or halibut.

A dunk tank was set up, allowing participants a chance to dunk a “hero” in the tank. Approximately 200 people participated to raise $331.58. “Everyone was enjoying themselves and that is what life is about,” said Quinton Moore, “I know everyone has things that they are going through in life, but I felt for a few minutes the people who came put their troubles aside and just enjoyed life. If this organization can touch the life of one person, put a smile on a person's face, bring a family together for a moment then I say that in itself is a success.” The next Be Your Own Hero event, a Minute to Win It type game, will take place July 26, 12– 3 p.m. at Old City Park in Greenwood.

Tricia is the assistant principal at Center Grove High School and her husband, Brandyn, works at Endress+Hauser. Together, they have three kids: Parker, Chloe, and Phoebe. Brandyn says he wasn’t the Christian he is today until 2003, after his parents became Christians a year earlier while Tricia has been Christian since her childhood. “The Lord wasn’t excluded from our family, but He definitely was not the center of my upbringing,” Brandyn said. “But when I got to see my parents go through that transformation, I really took notice. And with Tricia’s influence, it just felt natural. I now live a Christ-centered life. I needed to understand that and go on a purposefully pursuit of what others hand understood for their whole lives.” Since Brandyn became baptized, the Fergusons have embraced their faith and wanted to get their kids involved as well so that Christianity would be the center of all their lives. “We wanted to find a church home that was what we wanted for our kids,” said Brandyn. Eventually they were invited to New Hope by family friends they met through youth sporting events. “We’ve been going to New Hope for about eight years,” the Fergusons said. “It’s a midsized church which gives you that personal feel but it’s also large enough where there are a lot of people who step up into leadership roles and really model what it’s like to live a Christcentered life.” What is it about your place of worship that helps you grow spiritually? “That sense of community,” said Tricia. “We don’t have a lot of family in the area; our church family are the people we go through life with. They genuinely care about how you’re doing.” “There are a ton of people and it’s a nurturing atmosphere for kids as well. That’s what attracted us and kept us. It really feels like a family get-together when we go to church – not like a crowd. There are just a lot of familiar faces and caring,” said Brandyn. What is it about your place of worship that helps you feel connected to your spouse, children, parents or family? “We’ve had instances when our youngest child was sick in Riley Hospital for a week and our church family took care of us and made dinners and helped us with the other kids. Living life with these people and knowing they’re there for you like a family. I think of the opportunities it gives you to help you grow,” said Tricia. “Since we’re on the host/ welcoming committee, we’re involved in the effort to push you out there and not just sit in your seat and get the sermon. We’re committed to “Become” – giving those general nudges to get you out of the pew and are out there doing thing that are Christ-centered. Pushing you to live every day what we’re hearing on Sunday. Keep pushing yourself to grow. Maybe for me, the best part is the concrete application that we get through this mission to live like a Christian to be an example to other people and not just sit and listen. “And if we’re all living a Christ-centered life, then (our family) never has competing interests. The old adage, ‘the family that prays to- Submitted Photos The Ferguson family finds a sense of community at New Hope Church Left: Left: Tricia, Phoebe and Brandyn Ferguson; Right: Parker, Chloe and Phoebe Ferguson. gether, stays together’ is so true. It’s our values, our beliefs, the places we go, the friends we have. It works for us.” What is one meaningful event that has taken place at your place of worship? “The Ash Wednesday service really got to me. I’d never seen anything like it,” said Brandyn. “The room had been rearranged, the lights were dimmed… it just put me in a place of sacrifice. Like it was all just stripped away: all the luxuries, conveniences, the safe bubble we live in. It really got me down to the core of what the real Easter season is all about. I walked away from that night thinking, ‘Wow!’” Why would you recommend your place of worship to someone? “It’s a welcoming faith home, where people are free to grow spiritually at whatever rate they’re ready for. Whether it’s someone new to Christianity or someone who’s been one their whole life,” said Brandyn. “Come and be a part of the community and find out what God’s plan is for you. Church should be a place of action. You’ll feel like you fit right in. I know when I got there, I felt like I was behind Who is the Holy Ghost? DEVOTIONAL By Pastor Paul A. Kirby "These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." ~John 14:25-27 While Christ was yet present in the flesh with His disciples, He did all that He could possibly do to comfort them and to put their minds at ease with the fact that He would not be there with them for very much longer. For that matter, all through His ministry with them, He warned them that the day would come when He would be gone from them and that they needed to pay close attention to the teaching that He did concerning the matters of the kingdom of God. I am sure that there were many times that the disciples were not paying attention and that after He had departed from them, they wished they had. Jesus had another way, however, to bring back to their memories the things He had taught. He would send to them One who would Help them to recall those things and, not just one or two, but all of them. Jesus said, "The Holy Ghost....shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance..." Then He added: "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you..." To me these sayings of Christ are so important to us all. I have found myself in conversations with individuals that were seeking the Lord but did not know how to find Him. At the moment the Holy Spirit would bring to my mind just the right things that needed to be said to bring that person or those persons to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The Holy Ghost who is the Comforter, is the "Helper." This being true, there is no excuse for anyone not knowing the teachings of everybody. I didn’t know the songs. I felt like I was allowed to be right where I was in my journey. The message has never been slanted to one group or another. The pastors do a phenomenal job messaging things in a way that resonate with everyone – no matter how spiritually mature they are. You won’t ever feel like you are a ‘rookie Christian.’ There’s no barrier.” “And there are so many opportunities where you get the sense you’re connecting with God,” said Tricia. “They also have so many outstanding children’s programs – kids from New Hope and all over the community enjoy STARS day camp run by the teenagers from the youth group. That’s just one example; there are so many things like that throughout the course of the year.” New Hope Church 5307 Fairview Rd Greenwood, IN 46142 (317) 888-HOPE becomehope.com Compiled by Eric Ellis Jesus Christ, at least to the point of knowing Him well enough to come to a saving knowledge of Him. The Holy Ghost is yet present in the world today doing all He can to bring the world to Christ. He is speaking from pulpits every Lord's Day and throughout the other days of the week. If the world does not take the time to come to know Christ nor go to the trouble to get to know Him, it is not, nor will it ever be, God's fault. God’s love has been so demonstrated to us we will stand before Him in eternity with no excuse whatsoever for not being saved by Him. God bless and go and have a great day. Paul A.
