Not long ago, I was traveling home from a visit with my daughter and I made a stop in Atlanta.
While waiting in the gate area for the flight to St. Louis, I noticed two things that could be used for this article.

Women from several Fayette County churches recently attended the 67th annual meeting of the Central Illinois District of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League in Rock Island.
The theme for the convention was "Come to the Water," based on John 4:4.
About 250 delegates, members and guests participated in the event, which was hosted by Immanuel Lutheran Church in Rock Island.

This time of year brings many special occasions – including graduations, weddings, reunions, ball games and other early summer activities.
This month, summer begins on June 20. Also, next week Flag Day will, as always, be observed on June 14, and there is to be a pause for the pledge at 6 p.m.
Music by Iris Price greeted guests as they arrived at Evergreen Outreach. Leader Beulah Brown opened the program by announcing the birthdays of Sharon LaDage, Mary Crawford, Debra Williams and Ruth Ann Scott.
