Sandbagging help needed, Levasy MO
(passing this on): A call has gone out for volunteers to help with sandbagging the churches and homes in Levasy. The National Guard has a squad of soldiers on duty in Levasy at this moment, but more help is desperately needed! The Ebenezer United Church of Christ is in a dangerous spot. They need assistance in placing sandbags around the church.
Rev. Joyce Holly & Rev. Betty Thaller just called and asked for us to help in any way possible. The need is for people over the age of 18 years (or with guardian permission for those under 18 years of age) to assist with placing sandbags and moving some items out of the churches and homes.
The volunteers are needed Thursday morning, June 16th, at 9:00 am. They will be gathering at Ebenezer UCC.
If anyone can assist, their help will be deeply appreciated by the saints and citizens of Levasy.

BEND IN THE ROAD
I came across this at a very tough time in life; it helped me a lot & really still like to go back to it now and then.
I also like to share it when it seems to fit someone's struggles.
There are a few I was wanting to share this with just now, ...so just thought I would put it out there for YOU as well.
Gods best this day my friend, BOOKER (see below)
The Bend in the Road
Sometimes we come to life's crossroads
And we view what we think is the end...
But God has a much wider vision
And he knows that it's only a bend,
The road will go on and get smoother
And after we've stopped for a rest...
The path that lies hidden beyond us
Is often the path that is best.
So rest and relax and grow stronger,
Let go and let God share your load
And have faith in a brighter tomorrow,
YOU have just come to a bend in the road.

Bummer, the AC is on the fritz -nice timing ay? STILL so totally blessed, not complaining on that! Some GOD time this morning has me thinking …it is that attitude thing... it is about HOW we play the game… it is HOW we act, WHAT we say, WHO we are serving, helping others…
Our focus need be on HOW & WHO we are vs. WHERE we are going. He will take care of that, HE knows what He is doing, do you(we)? It is about journey vs. destination for sure …perspective maybe? …it does not get any better than this!?!
As I said, I was just thinking …STAY COOL!
Just had an interesting thought about humans vs ants, it can wait,…you can hardly wait huh?
A smile really is just a frown turned upside down, is it not?

Weekend is over, its Monday and...
Your boss RELATES well with people - for sure with YOU! Obviously this is instrumental to how he/she COMMUNICATES so successfully.
He ACCOMODATES people & ideas, as he CREATES involvement, better systems & improvement-thinking; causing us to ELIMINATE waste on many fronts.
She FACILITATES teamwork among individuals & between teams/depts; never hesitating to productively EVALUATE, providing feedback as necessary.
He/she DEMONSTRATES leadership, professionalism & what we all want in our boss, by practicing the:
GREAT 8 LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES
If I can help you, your business, or your management in these regards, let me know. These principles are what our soon-to-be-released book is all about, www.theconferenceforleaders.com
Gods best to you,
Doug, BOOKER TRAINING ASSOCIATES
THAT TRAINING DILEMMA:
Q: What if I train my people & they leave?
A: What if you don't & they stay!
(Consider this Q/A as it applies to supervision & management; & the fact the year is nearly half over. When?)
When leaders change (improve), ...organizations change (improve)
