What are our leaders doing to us currently? First, if any of you have been wronged or have lost anything through the NAACP, please accept my apologies that it happened. The situation is that I can’t do much about it. It’s just like our country. Listen, rent and housing costs are soaring to an outrageous amount.
We’re losing jobs from the federal government to the local cities. We’re also losing our children who are in trouble and getting no help. But still we’re asked to maintain. We as citizens have a way to begin to fight back on some situations that are affecting our families, communities and neighborhoods. It costs $30 a year to become a member of the NAACP. I, along with others, want to get back control of the local Pierce County NAACP Branch, which can help in some areas. Will you consider it today? Give us a chance to help or at least try. Again, my apologies for yesterday's hurt. Give me, Charles Broady, a call at 912-5482656 ***** Kingdom Faith Church has services every Sunday at 10 a.m. and Bible Study every Tuesday at 6 p.m. Kingdom Faith is located at 6014 Homestead Road in Blackshear. Elder Tony Reynolds is the pastor. ***** Your entire family is invited to worship with Fourth Mount Olive Church during weekly worship services. We are located at 900 Yeomans Street, Blackshear. We are blessed to be able to provide opportunities for all to learn how to love God and each other as we worship God our Father, Jesus Our Savior and the Holy Spirit our Comforter and Guide. We start promptly at 10 a.m. Come see for yourself, you will be glad you did. ***** Positive thoughts: In life, make every minute count for your good. ***** To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: – Ecclesiastes 3: 1 ***** If you have any news for Bertie’s corner, please call me at (912) 282-7473 or email bertiecornerblktime23b7@ gmail.com. I’ll be glad to hear from you and write up your news.
