For the vast majority of us,prayer is an enduring trait of theAmerican character, one whichdeserves all the protections ourBill of Rights guaranteed throughthe free exercise of our religion,but one which unfortunately overtime, has been misinterpreted.

Throughout the country's his-tory, the Congress has sought torecognize prayer’s history, her-itage and continuing role inAmerican life. In 1952, Congressset aside the first Thursday inMay as a National Day of Prayer.

National Prayer Day remindsus that as we enlist the power ofprayer for our Nation, we must bemindful whether at home orchurch or in the public schools,prayer can fulfill that most fun-damental right of American citi-zenship, the free exercise of

religion.This year, to coincide with our

national day celebrating the giftof prayer, I have again introduceda Constitutional Amendment toensure voluntary prayer in publicschools. H.J. Res. 42, reads:“Nothing in this Constitution, in-cluding any amendment to theConstitution, shall be construedto prohibit voluntary prayer or re-quire prayer in school, or to pro-hibit voluntary prayer or requireprayer at a public school ex-tracurricular activity.” In thepast, I had jointly introduced thisamendment with our late sena-tor, Robert C. Byrd.

My efforts in the Congress havelong been to preserve our Consti-tutional guarantees of freely exer-cising our religion, and notvanquishing that right from the

public square. Since the earliestdays of our founding, and in thehearts and minds of those land-ing on our shores to settle a newworld, hope endured throughprayer

Faith is fundamental in the his-tory of our Nation – from theDeclaration of Independenceand the Constitution, to ‘This Na-tion, under God’ in Lincoln’s Get-tysburg Address, to our nationalmotto of ‘In God We Trust.’ Faithin our Creator has always sus-tained us as a nation and as apeople. Our Nation’s Framersclearly appreciated the value ofreligion, and I believe the Consti-tutional intent was to ensure itsfree practice unimpeded by gov-ernment interference.

As people of faith, Americanshave often turned to prayer – for

comfort, for inspiration, forstrength – in our daily lives. AsChristians, we know what a pow-erful tool prayer can be to healand focus our national energiesin common cause.

The father of our own State,Abraham Lincoln, himself de-clared, "I have been driven manytimes upon my knees by the over-whelming conviction that I hadnowhere else to go. My own wis-dom and that of all about meseemed insufficient for the day.”

In front of our State Capitolbuilding stands a somber, headbowed statue of President Lin-coln. Based on the poem, “Lin-coln walks at Midnight,” thestatue gives added meaning ofprayer for our Nation. It repre-sents the slain president broughtback from his eternal rest to

mourn a troubled world duringWorld War I. Old Abraham wor-ries his good work for man willhave been in vain, unless some-one can bring a “white peace” tothe World.

As Christians, we take greatcomfort in knowing that thePrince of Peace, our Lord andsavior, Jesus Christ, will, in his Fa-ther’s time, bring the “whitepeace” of which the poet wrote.Until that day and hour, until themoment of his return, it is in-cumbent upon the body of Christto seek solace and guidance inthis old world through prayer.

You have my pledge to helppreserve these foundations forour future. May the good Lordbless our families throughout theyear and may He always blessAmerica.

Preserving Prayer in the American Character

CHARLESTON, WV - Six fac-ulty members at West Virginiapublic universities have re-ceived ‘mini-grants’ from thestate to assist in preparing pro-posals with the goal of obtainingmuch larger research fundingawards.

cation and West Virginia Univer-sity Institute of Technology.

HUNTINGTON - Clothes, toys,décor and household items filledthe walls of the Cabell-WayneAssociation of the Blind (CWAB)during its annual rummage andbake sale Friday morning.

Residents came from acrossthe Tri-State for good bargains.

The organization held its firstsale in 1993, on a resident’s frontporch. During the past twodecades, the event has growninto a community-wide sale ex-travaganza.

CWAB Director Paul Slone washappy, early into the three-dayevent.

“We’ve sold a lot, and this hasreally grown,” the local inspira-tion said. “This is great—thecommunity really looks forwardto this.”

More than good bargains, theannual sale provides visually-im-paired consumers a chance to

enjoy shopping in a friendly andhelpful environment.

Money raised during the eventgoes toward accomplishing

Slone and the CWAB’s mission,“…To promote and advocate theeconomic, educational, and so-cial welfare of the blind and vi-

sually impaired of all ages, sothey can maintain a lifestylecomparable to other members ofsociety.”

To Slone, the event marks atime when his job becomessomething much more than asimple “9 to 5.”

“I may work 50 to 60 hours aweek, but this feels great—itmakes your job not feel like ajob,” he explained. “I don’t haveto be here, but I want to be here.”

Slone continued, “You shouldenjoy what you’re doing so itdoesn’t feel like work—this is re-warding to me.”

Since 1989, CWAB has grown.It is now a household name inthe Tri-State.

The organization will strive tocontinue serving the area withquality service to ensure theblind and visually impaired havethe greatest quality of life possi-ble.

The next event to come toCWAB is the McClanahan Me-morial Concert July 12.

‘’BREATH OF LIFE”

Thought for the week: Genesis;2; 7 (KJV) And the Lord Godformed man of the dust of theground, and breathed into hisnostrils the breath of life; andman became a living soul.

My grandson started up theriding mower, for the usual lawncutting Z-ROOOOOMM--outjumped a little gray mouse, frombeneath the mower, giving birthto her babies on the run, shedropped, three, grey baby mice inthe grass, not even an inch inlength, so small, they looked likegrub worms, only pink, with acovering of fine grey hair, squeak-ing with breath of life.

I found a shoe box, put insome of their nest, and placedthe three babies in it, thinking.they will soon die…. the next

morning I warmed some milk,put it in a plastic baggie snippedthe tip end, just enough for dropsto come thru ,I held each one ,and watched as they sucked onthe tip of plastic - getting nour-ishment. I warmed a cloth to putover them., thinking what will Ido with a creature that makes usjump ,and we usually get rid of.--what scientific research uses bythe dozens for medical discover-ies -----what elephants are afraidof.

The fact is -it has BREATH oflife in it.

God gave it to All-- humans,creatures large and small, whatright do we have to destroy

this, something so small, andhelpless and harmless, squeakingfor breath.Psalms-150; 6Let everything that hath

breath praise the Lord. Praise yethe Lord.

In the U.S. the number of ratsand mice used for research is es-timated at 20 million a year. Miceare considered to be the bestmodel for inherited human dis-eases, and share 99% of theirgenes with humans; they are lowcost and reproduce rapidly.Leviticus 11:29-(KJV)These also shall be unclean

unto you among the creepingthings that creep upon the earth;the weasel, and the mouse, andthe tortoise after his kind.

Mice may be unclean, but lookhow God has a use for them; somuch has been accomplishedthru medical research using thelittle mouse.

My three mice only lived threedays, so, I did not take their life,their breath of life ended.

Our hearts, that pumps, thebreath of life to each of us, istaken for granted each momentand God has a purpose for eachof us too!

PRAYER: Thank you God forLIFE, We know that you are thegiver and taker of life. Amen.

After learning of his win, the re-elected city leader breathed a sighof relief. The election yielded twogoals for Canterbury: his re-in-statement as mayor and the deci-sion to carry on four-year-terms asopposed to two-year-terms in of-fice.

“The people of Milton are smartpeople—you can’t fool them—they know what they want andthey get what they want,” he said.“I am excited with the election re-sults and glad it’s over—now, wecan get back to work again.”

During the past four years, Can-terbury has accomplished manygoals, improvements and up-

grades for Milton. As he looksahead to the coming four years,the local resident sees an evenbrighter future.

“We’re getting in gear now,” saidCanterbury. “We’ll be getting newbusinesses in the city, fixing streetsand sidewalks, replacing sewerand water lines, and things willstart moving with Morris Memo-rial.”

The mayor continued, “I want tothank those, who voted for me,and to those, who didn’t—I hope Ican do something during this termto make them satisfied.”

The mayor position may be un-changed, but the city council is

not. Milton welcomed Cecil Tay-lor and Robert “Bob” Legg onboard with incumbents CarlHarshbarger, Pat Wisman andCharlie Conard.

Phyllis Smith ran unopposed forcity recorder.

Another big decision came fromvoters: the choice for a four-year-term. It’s one that Canterbury isproud of.

“This is a great thing for the cityof Milton,” he said. “It saves onelection expenses, paperwork andtime.”

The mayor and councilmem-bers thank all the citizens for vot-ing.

Velma’s ViewBy Velma Kitchens

Bangladesh

I recently met a young woman who is in medical school and shecame here from Bangladesh. She is a very bright, outgoing womanwho knows a lot of her country’s history and enlightened me onmy knowledge of Bangladesh and the people there.

This young lady came here in her teen years and attended pub-lic school in Virginia. She has worked for everything she has in herlife and she is proud to be an American.

She loves our country and plans to marry a young man andpractice medicine in New Jersey or New York.

She said in Bangladesh the people mostly are laborers, however,her father was a Civil Engineer and they were the upper class - al-though she never considered herself better than anyone else.

In Bangladesh the people mostly grow their food and don’t havea lot of meat. She said that goat is a good meat to eat. I have neverhad goat, but she assures me that it is good if it is cooked right.

She said in the public school where she went she was so sur-prised at the lack of respect that the students had toward theirteachers.

We take so much for granted here in America. In Bangladesh ed-ucation is one of the biggest essentials for the children. Parentswant a better life for their children as we all do and they are so gladwhen their child can learn.

This young woman’s Dad wanted a better life for her and her sis-ter and brother so they came here to America and they have had abetter life. She is free to voice her opinion and not be killed by thegovernment. She said if she lived in Bangladesh now and was sooutspoken about all the corruption and all the other things goingon in Bangladesh, she probably would not be alive.

She loves the people of Bangladesh and wants better for them.We need to be thankful for our country. I will never forget this kindcompassionate and caring young lady I met and will never forgetthe history lessons she taught me. People everywhere are thesame, they want to love and be loved and want to be good citizens.But most importantly they need the Lord.

DURHAM, N.C. - Faith is thesubstance of things hoped for:the evidence of things not seen.

Locally, one woman knowsthis definition well.

Inside a Cross Lanes home, a29-year-old nurse practitionersits under a blanket, wearing a t-shirt with the words, “Expect aMiracle” stitched on it.

A scar stretches across theright side of her head as a re-minder of the four-year battleshe has fought.

Christina Britton has walkedthrough fire. Her journeythrough the flame has forged anincredible story of faith, inspira-tion and perseverance.

When Britton was diagnosedwith a cancerous brain tumor in2009, she felt peace.

“I remember lying on a hospi-tal bed, my mom holding myhand and doctors saying, ‘youhave a large mass in your brainand we are trying to get you infor an MRI,’” recalled Britton. “Ijust said ‘ok.’ I just had an over-whelming peace - so much thatshe [mom] thought I didn’t un-derstand what was going on.”

What would devastate most,virtually had no effect on theyoung woman. Britton’s fear-lessness and faith shinedthrough the darkness.

Her fiery journey began with aseries of headaches in late Au-gust 2009.

On Aug. 20, 2009, the pain be-came too much. The 25-year-oldwent to ER at CAMC’s Women’sand Children’s Hospital where anambulance rushed her to Gen-eral Hospital.

In a small waiting room, fam-ily and friends learned night-marish news: a mass sat onBritton’s brain.

But, the courageous womanstayed positive. She held on to apromise found in the Old Testa-ment.

“For I know the plans I havefor you, declares the Lord, plansto prosper you and not to harmyou, plans to give you hope anda future,” states Jeremiah 29:11.

Under doctor’s orders, an am-bulance drove Britton to a hospi-tal at Duke University for a brainbiopsy. Family and friends fol-lowed closely behind, prayingthe entire way.

After tests, doctors told Brittonshe had a cancerous tumor onher brain. Britton received apathology report that showed agrade-three brain tumor, a con-dition that would require imme-diate surgery, chemo andradiation.

Britton would only live aboutfour months without treatmentor surgery, doctors told her.

The hospital scheduled sur-gery for Sept. 14 to remove thelife-threatening mass.

By this time, hundreds of fam-ily members, friends andstrangers cried out for God tospare Britton’s life.

From September to Decem-ber, they prayed for a miracle.

In late December, prayerswere answered during a routinepost-surgery-checkup.

After running a test, surgeons,doctors and nurses at a NorthCarolina hospital stood in disbe-lief. The results they found wereshocking.

Cancer no longer existed inBritton’s brain. All traces of itwere gone. She was healed.

The prayers of many had beenanswered. A miracle had beengranted.

Britton was given the greatestChristmas present she ever re-ceived: the miracle of life.

“Doctors said it was com-pletely gone,” she recalled.

Through her four-year battle,Britton has inspired hundreds.

Erica Hinkley smiles everytime she looks at her sister.

“She is the strongest person Iknow - not one time through thisdid I ever see her scared - shejust always had faith God wouldtake care of her,” Hinkley re-membered. “When I look at her,I see a miracle.”

Kati Harmon has known Brit-ton for more than 20 years. Shestood by her best friend duringsurgeries.

Harmon was blown away bythe peace that saturated herfriend during the chaotic time.

“She seemed ironically calmabout the situation - she was atpeace with it - she was never de-pressed and never felt sorry forherself,” remembered Harmon.“She had a peace that passes un-derstanding - a peace you can’tdescribe unless you know God.”

The young woman continued,“Christina is a miracle.”

Darcia Painter looks forwardto Mother’s Day, May 12. She hasthe greatest present a momcould ask for.

“It’s awesome that God gave usthis miracle that we still have ourdaughter,” Painter said. “It’samazing that He thought of us togive to us such a wonderfuldaughter.”

The proud mother continued,“She is most definitely a mira-cle.”

Father’s Day is also comingsoon, but Mark Painter alreadyhas the best present he’s everbeen given: his daughter. Hervaliant fight has changed his life.

“It’s increased my faith dra-matically to see what she’s gonethrough,” Painter said. “I’mproud she’s my daughter and shelives up to the faith we instilledin her - it’s just indescribable thekind of faith she has.”

The proud father continued, “Ido see a miracle.”

Life was back to normal at theBritton household until April 2,2013. An MRI showed anothercancerous, grade 3 tumor, al-most identical to the one foundfour years ago.

But, like the incident in 2009,the cancer survivor remainedcalm.

While lying on a hospital bed,the warrior of faith kept smiling.Peace overshadowed her room.

In early April, for the secondtime, surgeons removed a life-threatening mass. After rest,Britton was sent home where sheis now recovering from majorbrain surgery.

Her body may be scarred buther drive is not.

Determination paints her eyesas she looks toward the futurewith a mission.

“This opened doors for me toshare about my experience and

God with others,” said Britton.The 29-year-old touched the

right side of her head softly andhumbly smiled, “I would havenever had the opportunity toshare if it wasn’t for this.”

Since her miraculous healing,Britton has shared her story atlocal churches and with cancerpatients across the country. Sheprovides a glimmer of light inpeople’s darkest times.

“I tell them ‘cancer is not theend of the world…God healedme,” she said.

Melissa Pratt, pastor of TeaysValley Church of God haspreached hundreds of messageson the power of faith. When shelooks at Britton, she sees thefive-letter-word put into action.

“Faith is the constant convic-tion that God is bigger than themountain you’re facing,” ex-plained Pratt. “Christinachooses every day to believe Godis at work - she realizes nothingwill happen to her in this life thatGod will not take care of or seeher through.”

When the local preacherthinks of Britton, the word “mir-acle” comes to mind. She knowswhat the word entails, but sees itall over Britton’s life, especiallywhen noticing the peace theyoung woman exuded during atragic time.

“To have peace in the midst ofcrisis - real peace - not a put-on

- not a façade to keep everyoneelse peaceful - is a miracle,” Prattexplained. “She’s had unbrokenpeace, even when she was toldshe had such a short time to live- that’s a miracle. To experiencethe physical healing is also mira-cle.”

Family and friends have allbeen touched by Britton as well.Her walk through this scary trialinspires them to encourage oth-ers with Britton’s story.

“Anyone else would havequestioned ‘why is this happen-ing to me,’ but she seeks to usethis to express her faith to oth-ers,” said Harman.

Hinkley agreed. She believesher sister’s story is one thatneeds to be shared with theworld.

“I cut hair and talk to a lot ofpeople - I tell them about herand that she’s a miracle,” Hinkleysaid.

Britton’s undeniable faith hasspread throughout her family.

“If this wasn’t a God thing, Idon’t know what is,” Painter said.“The power of prayer is amaz-ing.”

The joyful father continued,“So many people are findingstrength from her story.”

Pratt agreed. The longtimepreacher believes Britton is adisciple, sent to spread God’slove and truth with her story.

“In spite of her situation, shenever made it about her - shenever focused on herself,” saidPratt.

She described the essence ofBritton’s calling while remem-bering a recent run for cancerevent.

“In the midst of all this, she isstill running a race for other peo-ple to inspire them to run,” Prattsaid. “I’m thankful Christina al-lowed her life to be proof thatJesus is alive, and he has healingpower to help us endure life’schallenges.”

Christina Britton’s faith is rare. It is unwavering and steadfast. When the world tells her she

cannot make it - faith tells hershe can.

Britton will begin chemo andradiation in May. Her familywelcomes prayers for her recov-ery. They are confident she willwin the fight.

WV 8th graders to learn about science with Nanooze MagazineCHARLESTON, WV - Eighth-

grade students at schools acrossthe state are receiving tiny lessonsin science through the first-everWest Virginia edition of Nanoozemagazine, a publication aboutnanotechnology, the science ofsmall objects less than the width ofa human hair. These very smallparticles and molecules are mak-ing a big impact in technology,medicine, automobiles, cancertreatment, and computers, toname just a few.

Nanooze is provided free to alleighth-grade grade students by theWest Virginia Higher EducationPolicy Commission’s Division ofScience and Research. The publi-cation and distribution of Nanoozeis part of an effort to stimulate in-

terest in science, technology, engi-neering, and mathematics (STEM)careers among middle school stu-dents.

“To be economically competi-tive now and in the future, WestVirginia needs more college grad-uates, and particularly we need tograduate more people trained inSTEM fields,” said Dr. Jan Taylor,the Commission’s Director of Re-search Programs. “We hope thismagazine and the guidance ofclassroom teachers can move ourstate toward the goal of increasingthe number of students graduatingin STEM fields every year.”

“This magazine is an excellentexample of informational text thatteachers might use with their stu-dents,” said Marty Burke, Assistant

Director of the West Virginia De-partment of Education’s Office ofInstruction. “We encourageteachers to use Nanooze magazineto guide class discussions aboutscience research, discoveries, andcareer opportunities.”

The West Virginia edition ofNanooze magazine includes:

a description of whatnanoscience is all about;

a story about how West Virginiascientists are working to developtechnology to improve sensors foruse in environmental, military andpublic health applications;

a page about individuals in WestVirginia working in nanotechnol-ogy; and

a map showing where nan-otechnology is happening in West

Virginia. The Division of Science and Re-

search mailed packages ofNanooze to public and privateschools across West Virginia withmagazines for each of the morethan 22,000 eighth-grade studentsin the state. An electronic versionof Nanooze is available atwww.wvresearch.org/nanooze.Teachers and school administra-tors can request additional printedcopies of the magazine at no costthrough the website.

While this is a special West Vir-ginia edition, Nanooze is pub-lished nationally for students bythe Cornell NanoScale Science andTechnology Facility. Previous is-sues of the magazine and more in-formation for kids about

nanotechnology can be found byvisiting www.nanooze.org. Teach-ers are encouraged to subscribe toreceive free regular issues for theirstudents.

The Division of Science and Re-search provides strategic leader-ship to improve researchinfrastructure and develop com-petitive research opportunities inSTEM disciplines.

Virginia Division of Natural Re-sources advises people to leave allyoung wildlife alone. “The springseason is the time of year when thewoods and fields of West Virginiaare full of new life,” said GeneThorn, wildlife biologist at theWest Virginia State Wildlife Centerin French Creek. “People have agreat opportunity to view andenjoy young wildlife during thisseason, but it is especially impor-tant for the public to understandthe need to avoid touching or dis-turbing these wild animals.”

Attempts to rescue or rehabili-tate young wildlife are oftencounter-productive, according toThorn. Picking up or getting tooclose to wildlife greatly increases

the chance of harm to the animaland/or the persons involved in thisunwise practice. By touchingyoung animals, humans leave ascent that may attract a predator.Wildlife viewing is an enjoyableand perfectly acceptable activity;however, Wildlife Resources Sec-tion personnel recommend thatthis pastime be conducted from asafe distance and with the aid ofbinoculars.

“In addition to being detrimen-tal to the welfare of young animals,handling wildlife potentially mayexpose humans to various wildlife-associated diseases, parasites andother health-related risks,” saidThorn. “Rabies, roundworms andother parasites such as lice andticks can be transmitted to hu-

mans through the improper han-dling of wildlife.”

DNR offices statewide receivenumerous calls each year con-cerning young wildlife, especiallyfawn deer that have been pickedup by well-meaning residents. Inalmost every case these young an-imals have not been abandoned.The offspring are often hidden asthe adult searches for food, andthis separation can last for a fewhours or all day.

Humans are poor substituteparents for wild animals, becauseyoung wildlife require special dietsand learn survival skills from theirparents. Removing young wildlifefrom its natural environment al-most certainly leads to the death ofthe animal.

Many people often mistake abedded fawn, with no mother insight, as abandoned, but that isusually not the case. Hiding thefawn and leaving it while the doesearches for food is an importantsurvival tactic. The spotted patternand coloration of fawns and theirlack of scent afford protection tothese young animals and makethem difficult for predators to de-tect.

If a predator happens to ap-proach close to a fawn, the youngdeer will normally hold very stilluntil the threat passes. If discov-ered by a predator, the fawn willwait until the very last moment be-fore fleeing to safety. The doe willcome back to check on her fawn atfeeding time. As a final cau-

tion, remember that state laws andregulations prohibit the posses-sion of wildlife without a permit.Under any circumstances, whenyou pick up a young animal in thewild, you have taken it into yourpossession. The fines for illegalpossession of a fawn deer, blackbear cub, baby raccoon, squirrel orany other species taken or pos-sessed during the closed seasonrange from $20 up to a maximumof $1,000 and/or up to 100 days injail.

“We want everyone to enjoywildlife in West Virginia,” saidThorn. “For your own health andsafety and to protect the state’swildlife, remember these wild ani-mals should be left alone and al-lowed to stay wild.”
