Dear editor,
Christmas has come and gone and we have celebrated the birth of Christ. However, he will always be with us. We will know the tree by the fruit it bares. We do not need to say God bless America. Americans need to bless God through his son.

There have been two that have died for you and I. Jesus Christ for our sins and the American soldiers for our freedom. More and more Americans are getting to the point that they don’t believe they need God. This nation continues to forget who she was yesterday, therefore she does not know who she is or where she is going. [Full Story »]

The year 2013 in review:
In January we reported:
At their first meeting in 2013, the Dodge County Board of Commissioners amended the 2013 budget approved on December 28, 2012. Amendments were made to the Dodge County Probate Court, Dodge County Tax Commissioner and E-911 budgets. Interim county manager Bobby Peacock recommended that the probate court budget be reduced by $10,000.00, the tax commissioner budget be reduced by $7000.00 and E-911 be increased by the $17,000.00. Peacock told commissioners that the increase in the E-911 budget would be used to “bulk up” the medical insurance budget. [Full Story »]
