Thursday, Mar. 3 to Sunday, Mar. 6, could be called “drama weekend” in Clearwater.

Clearwater's first baby of the year arrives

Somehow the Lord can bring people into your life just when you need them. Father Emil Sasges has been such a person for me. When I first came to the North Thompson Valley as a young bride, I was thousands of miles away from my home, church, friends and family. His pastoral visits, caring wisdom, warm humor, meaningful songs and ever-ready smiles have nourished my family over the years.

In mid-January local Great Backyard Bird Count organizers launched a new “doorway” to the GBBC for our participants from Canada. To find it, just go to www.birdcount.ca. It’s going to look pretty familiar to those who have visited the site before, but it also contains some new content specifically for our Canadian bird watchers, contributed by Bird Studies Canada.
