The special day would fall on the anniversary of her mother’s death. So on May 10, 1908 the day was observed in Philadelphia Pennsylvania where Jarvis had recently moved. It wasn’t until 1914 that president Woodrow Wilson made the official announcement to the nation that every 2nd Sunday of May would be a national day of observance. Mother’s Day is a special day in which we take a moment to honor the women who make a difference in our lives. It is not very often we hear good news these days about the Mother’s who as my gift reminds me “rock the cradle that rules the world.” In my years of Christian service I had the privilege of interviewing senior statesmen, great community leaders and church leaders who are making a difference in all of our lives. In our first few weeks after moving to Logansport Indiana I was given a personal invitation to meet with Mayor Michael Fincher. Mayor Fincher impressed me as he spoke in tears about his mother. I am convinced that the world is a better place because of all mothers’ that were readers, teachers and fitting examples. Dedicated mothers produce determined children. We all know that it takes a considerable amount of determination to make a difference in today’s world. So take some time this Mother’s Day to remember Mom. The apostle Paul reminds his “son in the faith” (Timothy) where his personal faith originated. “I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.” – 2 Tim 1:5 This Life Thoughts is dedicated to my Mom who has made many sacrifices and uttered many prayers that have made a tremendous difference in many of my major decisions in life. Thank you Mom. - Rick Woodall is the minister for the Yorktown Road Church of Christ in Logansport Indiana.

EMPTY GALLON MILK JUGS NEEDED! Does your family go through a lot of milk?? We are looking for empty gallon milk jugs for this summer’s VBS. Please bring them into the church office. Welcome Seminarian Eric Seitz My name is Eric Seitz. I live in Fargo, North Dakota and I am a member of Sts. Anne and Joachim. I graduated from Shanley High in 2011. I was born in Rapid City, South Dakota on September 23, 1992. My Dad was in the Air Force, so we moved around a lot, from South Dakota to South Carolina, to Norway, to Great Falls, Montana, until we settled in Fargo in the summer of 2008. I first started thinking about the priesthood in the seventh grade, but I didn’t become too serious about it until the end of my junior year in high school. During my senior year, I applied to the diocese, was accepted, and found out that I would have to drive past three fine seminaries to get to the greatest seminary in the cosmos, Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, MI. I have completed my fourth year of college there and I feel very blessed to have the opportunity to serve the Lord in such a radical way. Next year, I will be attending St. Paul Seminary in St. Paul, MN. In my free time I like to sing in choirs, play basketball, football & occasionally play video games. I like Marvel comic book movies & tv shows, as well as bands from 1970’s. I am excited to be here to get to know you and someday to serve the people of Fargo as a Priest. Eric will be at Holy Cross until May 24th.
