Box 339 Philip, SD 57567 605-859-2186 #2 Haakon and Jackson County FSA proposes new boundries for area producers viously pastored in Mission, South Dakota at the Pastorate Ministry Assembly of God for nine years be- fore answering the call for a minis- ter in Wanblee. While ministering in Mission, Gus and Terry doubled the size of the church, started a soup kitchen,, a food pantry, a youth ministry, and provided many other beneficial op- portunities for the community. They were approached by the Emmanuel Mission to purchase the church in Wanblee. Hearing their call for a minister, Gus and Terry made the move to Wanblee and thus began Eagle Nest Life Center. During their first year at Wanblee, Gus and Terry continued to pastor in Mission as well as Wanblee. Soon after arriving in Wanblee, Gus decided they needed a new church. Gus and Terry were deter- mined not to build until they had the money to do so. As God would have it, donations began to arrive. Donations in all forms contributed to the construction of the Eaglenest Life Center. Eight months later with propane heaters and construction lights set up, Gus and Terry pas- tored their first Christmas service in the Eagle Nest Life Center. Since then, the center has evolved and grown with the help of visiting church groups and local volunteers. Eagle Nest Life Center offers many services to the Wanblee com- munity, local youth and church groups from around the country. Every Tuesday and Thursday, you can find Terry and Cassie Craven, and local volunteer, Arlee Kukal, hard at work getting lunch ready for the soup kitchen. Just recently the center hosted the mobile food pantry Feeding SD. This food pantry offers frozen food, canned goods, cereal, frozen meat and much more. The pantry contributed to over 100 families in the Wanblee community and area. Along with the soup kitchen and food pantry, the center offers a va- riety of church services every Sun- day. Gus and Terry, along with their regular church services, also offer a childrens church service for children up to the age of ten. This service is offered after their regular Sunday services. Gus and Terry share the same passion and hope for the youth. They have formed and lead a local youth group within the Wanblee community. Gus and Terry wel- come the youth into the church by offering many opportunities to the kids. Every summer they take the group on an annual trip to Camp Noah. Kids ranging from first grade up to fourteen years old spend a week down on the Missouri River at the Snake Creek Camp- ground. The kids come together for a week of fellowship and youth ministry. If we can impact one kid, one kid can change the reservation adds Gus. The center and a local youth work group will be taking an addi- tional trip this summer to Turtle Mountain Reservation this sum- mer. While there, the youth group will be helping with various proj- ects located on the reservation. They will also will be heading to Texas to work on Wounded Warrior Projects. Gus and Terry hope their message to the youth be reaffirmed through people helping people. One of the latest and ongoing projects for the Cravens is the Glory Ranch. The Glory Ranch is located on the former John and Doris Sherburne Ranch just East of Wanblee. Gus and Terrys son and daughter-in-law, Kyle and Cassie Craven, and their family live in the house located at the Glory Ranch. As you enter the Glory Ranch, a sign above the entrance reflects the message To God Be The Glory. Gus and Terry Craven want to pass this message on to all those who experience the The Glory Ranch and Eagle Nest Life Center. Last summer, a community garden was planted at the Glory Ranch, and fellow community residents planted and maintained the gar- den. Pumpkins were planted and harvested for their annual Harvest Fest. The Harvest Fest was held the Saturday before Halloween in Oc- tober. Many activities such as pumpkin painting, bow and arrow shooting contests, wagon rides, and many other activities for the the youth were held. Currently, the Cravens are working on repairing and develop- ing one of the out buildings into a life skills workshop. Just as the Cravens travel to other churches and assist in helping with projects, a church group from Maine will be lending a helping hand for the life skills project. With the Easter holiday upon us, Gus and Terry would like to ex- tend an invitation to all who would like to attend Easter sunrise serv- ices with them on Quiver Hill be- ginning at 6:30 a.m. Easter morning. Gus and Terry stand strong in the faith of their mininstry. As Gus says, If we can allow the Lord to work through us, we have done our job. --by Rhonda Antonsen As you drive through Wanblee, you may have noticed a building peeking out from around other the houses as you glanced to the East and wondered, What building is that? Well, for those of you who are wondering, it is the Eagle Nest Life Center. Pastors Gus and Terry Craven established the Eagle Nest Life Center in 2008.

A new challenge is what was presented to Larry and Karen Denny recently. Over the past three years, Larry has had more than 20 surgeries to remove blood clots from his leg, re- ceived artificial veins, and 17 stints. Still, Larrys leg was not healing and was unhealthy. At that point the doctors inserted a blood pump in his leg through an open incision. For three and a half months, Larry would return to the doctors office, every two days, for the pump and incision to be cleaned. Once the pump was re- moved, the damaged and un- healthy skin were replaced with a skin graph. Unfortunately, the skin graph was not successful and never healed properly. Larrys circulation continued to decrease, which caused a great amount of pain and discomfort. The pain was terrible, said Larry, nothing made it feel better and I never felt comfortable. In January, another surgery was performed and following this sur- gery his foot began to die. Each time Larry would have surgery we knew there was a pos- sibility that he could lose his leg, said Karen, but each time the doc- tors would save it. That was until recently when Larry went back to the hospital and within five days, six surgeries were performed on his leg. Doctors told them there was nothing more that could be done to save his leg and amputation would need to be done before any infection set in to the leg. Larry underwent surgery and the lower portion of his left leg was amputated. After six weeks in the hospital, Larry was released to go home and was already thinking of the new challenge that was waiting for him when he arrived. Stairs. What was previously such an easy task to do, would now be so difficult. Living in an older home, there are many stairs to gain access to their home. With the help of their neighbor, Larry was able to get into his home. But leaving again for his upcoming doctor ap- pointment would be another task. The fear of being homebound was far greater than the fear of los- ing my leg, he said. It was obvious that something would need to change in order for Larry to be able to come and go from the house. Karen contacted different agencies for assistance in building a ramp, but these at- tempts for help were unsuccessful. I didnt have the knowledge of how a ramp should be built, said Karen, and the expense of the ma- terial and labor, I knew would be more than we could afford. Then one day while standing in a local business, a gentleman came up to Karen and told her that someone had contacted him about building a ramp on their home. He said all the material and labor had been paid for by an anonymous per- son. In a state of shock, Karen went right home and shared the news with Larry. In the next few days, a contrac- tor built and installed a new ramp on their house. I was so excited, said Larry with a smile, the first day we had the ramp we had to try it out, so we went out for coffee and it was so nice. The freedom of being able to come and go and the feeling of in- dependence is unmeasurable. Although, Larry says he de- pends on Karen for help, but know- ing hes not completely dependant on her is a comfort. Losing my leg is a change and I can handle the change, Larry said, but this ramp changed my life. Overcoming those new obstacles in life can be difficult, but with a gracious gift and with a helping hand, those challenges are now at- tainable. There will never be enough words to express the proper thank you to those who did this for us and the difference it made, Larry con- cluded with emotion. The impact of helping others can change a life Easter Church Services schedule on page 2.

And we can be sure that when He does, His words are always purposeful. Con- sider some of the Fathers goals for His children: God wants us to comprehend the truth of what He is saying. As Christians, we can be confident that this will happen because the Holy Spirit is present within us, and John 16:13 promises that He will guide us into all truth. It may take time and effort on our part, but the Lords intention is for us to clearly un- derstand what Hes communicating. Our heavenly Father also has a goal to conform us to the image of Christ. As we read the Scriptures, His Spirit may point out Jesus compassion toward the Samaritan woman as our example for living. Or He may warn us, through Jesus rebuke of Peter, not to rely on human understanding. Our part is to re- spond to His words by aligning our lives with the truth, and not to resist. In addition, God reveals truths about life in Christ so we will be able to communicate those same prin- ciples to others. Jesus spoke only what His Father had taught Him (John 8:28). Likewise, we need to be listening carefully every time God speaks so we, too, will know what to say. God has something to say: to the obedient and the disobedient; to the powerful and the weak; to the self-assured and the insecure; to the lost and the saved. Dont miss what He has to tell you. Let whatever happens in the course of the day draw you to Him, and practice giving Him your full attention. God's Goal in Communicating Inspiration Point Obituaries Lyle Klundt, age 79 of Kadoka, S.D., died Monday, March 18, 2013, at his residence. Lyle Eugene Klundt was born February 10, 1934, at Herrick, the son of Leon and M. Louise (Dunn) Klundt. He grew up on a farm near Herrick and received his education at a rural school in that area. At the age of 19, he entered the U.S. Air Force and served during the Korean War. He was honorably discharged on September 9, 1955.

Esther Pauline Clawson was born March 6, 1924, in Sheridan, Wyo., the daughter of Cecil Ransom and Sarah Ethel (Shaw) Clawson. She grew up on her parents homestead near Arvada, Wyo., graduated from Gillette High School and the Gillette Normal School (for a teaching certificate) in 1942 and then furthered her edu- cation in teaching at Black Hills State College in Spearfish. Esther taught at rural schools in Sheridan and Campbell counties in Wyoming and while at the Powder River School in Campbell County met Leroy D. Long, who was visit- ing relatives in the area. They mar- ried on December 22, 1945, at Hardin, Mont., which was 15 days after Leroys discharge from the U.S. Army. (When Esther decided to do something, there was no wait- ing around.) They initially made their home in Campbell County where Esther was teaching school, but in June 1946, they moved to Philip, where they built a home and established a permanent residence. In addition to raising six chil- dren, Esther worked a variety of jobs to help support the family as a housekeeper, waitress and day care provider. For her last two years prior to retirement, she worked as a kitchen assistant in the Philip hospital and nursing home. In 1997, Esther and Leroy moved into the Senechal Apart- ments. After the passing of her husband, Leroy, in January 2000, Esther lived mostly with her daughter, Cheryl, and her hus- band, Phil, in Philip in the warmer months of the year and with her son, Wayne, and his wife, Kathy, during winter months at Hastings, Nebraska. In July 2012, she went to Hettinger where son, Jim, and his wife, Jenifer, live and was ad- mitted to the Western Horizons Care Center where she resided until being called to heaven. She was a member of the Evan- gelical Free Church of Philip and was appreciative of the cards, notes and prayers from her prayer group while she was residing in the care center. She is survived by three sons, Wayne (Kathy) of Hastings, Neb., Jim (Jenifer) of Hettinger, N.D., and Mike of Sioux Falls; two daughters, Palma Johannesen of Wall and Cheryl (Phil) Pearson of Philip; 12 grandchildren; several great-grandchildren; and a host of other relatives and friends. Esther was preceded in death by her parents, Ethel and Cecil Claw- son; her husband, Leroy; her brother, Joseph Clawson; her sis- ter, Ruth Watt; and her eldest son, Fred. Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Thursday, March 28, at the Evangelical Free Church in Philip, with Pastor Gary Wahl offi- ciating.

Thats what the ex- perts currently tell us although they may change their minds to- morrow. For the time being, though, we can cheerfully guzzle coffee and munch on chocolate, se- cure in the knowledge that theyre good for us, sort of like apples. This is excellent news since I like both of these things quite a lot, and ap- ples are okay too. Both coffee and chocolate have multiple benefits, and some of those are linked to their contain- ing antioxidants. Antioxidants, in case you arent familiar with them, are known to prevent tissue dam- age that is caused by molecules called oxygen-free radicals. That explanation does nothing at all for me since I havent a clue what they are really talking about. But, since antioxidants are obviously good for you, Ill be glad to ingest them fre- quently in my favorite beverage and snack. The health claims for chocolate, I might add, are substantial. It re- duces the risk of stroke, lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, lowers risk of heart disease, makes you feel full so you eat less, re- duces risk of diabetes, reduces stress, increases blood flow which makes you smarter and more alert and even gives vision a boost through more blood flow to the retina. It quiets coughs as well which I discovered for myself last winter when I had some bug that gave me a nasty hack. I dislike cough drops so I decided to try a piece of dark chocolate. It actually helped. I reasoned that chocolate tends to coat the mouth and throat and might help in that way, but those in the know say its because it contains theobromine which re- duces activity of the vagus nerve. That nerve is the part of the brain that triggers hard-to-shake coughs. No matter how it works, it works. It also helps calm slight jit- ters in my arms or legs when Im trying to get to sleep. No one has said why that might be, but maybe it has to do with increased blood flow. Coffee doesnt seem to have quite such an extensive list of ben- efits, but there are many. It re- duces the risk of diabetes and heart-rhythm disturbances. Even decaffeinated coffee does that. It lowers the risk of stroke, Parkin- sons disease, and cancer (espe- cially liver cancer,) and has a major proven benefit of making you sixty-five percent less likely to develop dementia and Alzheimers disease. Bring on the coffee. On the negative side, it can increase the risk of miscarriage which obvi- ously is not of major concern to me, and it can make heartburn worse. It doesnt seem to bother my diges- tion, and neither does it keep me awake. I often set down my coffee cup, fall into bed, and go right to sleep. All of us, of course, are looking for ways to make our lives better. When we hear that something were doing is actually good for us, we embrace it heartily. Thats probably why I spend a lot of time trying to be a better Christian. Chocolate and coffee may have some benefits, but being close to God has many more. It certainly reduces stress since God promises to guide and protect us. I figure I would be a basket case by now if I couldnt rely on him. He has helped and protected me times without number. Then too, we are naturally drawn to those who like us or, bet- ter yet, love us. Thats what were celebrating at this time of year when Easter reminds us of Gods great love that led him to send his son to die for us. Thats extreme love. We can never hope to repay him for this sacrifice, but we can at least be thankful. We can also re- spond by trying to let God accom- plish in us and through us what is pleasing and useful to him. He even wants us to constantly stay in touch with him, and we can cer- tainly do that with a little effort. So, during this Easter week, there will no doubt be plenty of chocolate to enjoy and probably coffee too, but most of all we can rejoice in being children of the King. As such we can look forward to the brightest of futures, both here on earth and evermore with our Lord in heaven. Easter bless- ings on us all. Benefits Lookin Around by Syd Iwan When God is involved, anything can happen. Be open. Stay that way. God has a beautiful way of bringing good vibrations out of broken chords. Charles Swindoll March 15-17, 2013 there was a gathering of cousins at the Storm Mountain Methodist Church camp. Amy Lehman, Dawn and Kate Ras- mussen were joined by Cam and Mary, sisters from Minneapolis, Jan, from New York, and Lynn from Pierre. Besides all the good times they had at camp, they also visited Betty Tesar in Rapid City. While Amy was enjoying cousin time, Blake and Patrick Lehman were in Aberdeen for the State B basketball tournament. Kirby Krogman rode with them. Howard, Nette, Chris and Beau Heinert were among those gather- ing at Joe Karys home in Mellette County where friends and relatives helped him celebrate his birthday.

This is genetic on both sides of the family so it was sort of ex- pected. She is cute, of course, ac- cording to Roxie and fairly quiet. Shawn took a week off from work, and Jodi will take six. Kenny and Roxie came home on Friday since they wanted to attend the health fair in Philip on Saturday.

They included Joyce Stout, Polly Kujawa, Ruby Cadman, Barbara Stone and Ethel Woodruff. Included in Kadokas re- port was the work of Quilts with Love. This group of women have sent over 3,000 quilts to Iraq and Afghanistan and continue to do so. Kadokas unit was fortunate of be given 60 large quilts, five small quilts and 14 lap robes which have been taken to veterans at Ft. Meade and the Hot Springs VA Hospital. These were given because of the backing on the quilts which were not appropriate for the over- seas veterans. Someone had do- nated polyester backing which is not compatible with conditions overseas. Paula Vogelsang brings the quilts to this unit and they are taken to the hospitals. Many women in this area, including Kadoka, Belvidere and Philip, help in the sewing of the quilts. Many Nebraska women are also busy making quilts for Quilts With Love. T u e s d a y , Ap r i l 9 For Ryan Willert Kadoka City Council Ward III Ad ordered and paid for by the candidate.

The legislation would transfer approximately 29 acres of National Forest Service land to the National Park Service to construct a visitor facility and provide parking. The legislation is now ready to be con- sidered by the full Senate. We worked hard to establish the Minuteman Missile site in the late 1990s, and with my legislation, we can ensure that many more South Dakotans and tourists from around the world can learn about this his- toric site, said Johnson, a member of the Energy and Natural Re- sources Committee. I am glad the full committee approved this legis- lation and it can now be brought to the Senate floor for consideration. The Minuteman Missile Na- tional site is a reminder of the his- toric and important role that South Dakota played in the Cold War arms race, said Thune. Providing additional land to the Minuteman Missile site to be used for the devel- opment of a visitors center will make a piece of South Dakotas past more accessible to students of history from around the globe. I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to move this important legislation through the Senate. The launch control facility and missile silo that make up the Min- uteman Missile National Historic Site were preserved to illustrate the history of the Cold War and the role the Air Forces Minuteman II Missile defense system played in efforts to preserve world peace. The Minuteman Missile consists of the Delta-01 Launch Facility and the Delta-09 Missile Silo, located about 11 miles from one another on Inter- state 90. The legislation builds upon a bill passed in 1999 that established Minuteman Missile as a National Historic Site, which required that two sites be evaluated as potential locations for a visitor center. The land transfer provided in the bill would allow for the construction of a visitor center and administrative facility at Exit 131 off of I-90. The bill would also transfer 3.65 acres near the missile silo for visitor parking and other administrative uses. Congress provided funding for the construction of the visitor center when the site was estab- lished. Johnson and Thune reintroduced the Minuteman Missile National Historic Site Boundary Modifica- tion Act (S. 459) on March 5. Minuteman Missile bill can now be considered by full Senate The Midland community opened its doors to host the fourth develop- ment session for Stronger Econ- omies Together, a group which meets monthly to build a blueprint for regional economic development in the Badlands/Bad River region. The group met Tuesday. March 12, at the Open Bible Church, and focused on the topics of developing a vision statement and goals for the plan. Prior to the working meeting, Midland representatives offered city tours, culminating in a walk- through of the newly named, Lava Waters Inn, formerly the Stropp- pel Inn. While visitors wandered through the historic building, sto- ries of history and new ideas were shared. About 30 people toured Midland and the Lava Water Hotel. It was exciting to hear Kathy Jensen's fu- ture plans for the hotel and to see the progress she has already made, said Beth Flom, Midland member on the SET team. Session four opened with a per- sonality assessment, helping group members to understand their lead- ership style, as well as others in the group. This led to time spent conceiving a vision statement in line with regional assets and val- ues. Between this session and the next, a small group will be forming the ideas into a solid vision state- ment that will represent the direc- tion of the entire group. Brainstorming of goals and learning how to write them to be SMART rounded out the session. The group came up with 20 broad goals that will be narrowed and prioritized during the next four ses- sions. Current group members can share ideas they have identified. The next SET session will be held in Philip, Tuesday, April 9. The educational session will be from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. To as- sist the group in forming their plan, guest speakers from the Gov- ernors Office of Economic Develop- ment and the South Dakota Labor Market Information Center will present economic data on jobs and industries. All interested people in the Haakon/Jackson/eastern Penning- ton county area are urged to partic- ipate.

Call 6058372259 Having a Cropping Plan The old adage, Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail can become stark reality when faced with chal- lenges like drought. Presenters for the currently running webinar se- ries, Managing Drought Risk on the Ranch are highlighting the importance of and encouraging producers to develop a plan to fol- low over the next few weeks, months and beyond to help take the emotion out of decisions they may need to make. Crop producers would be wise to do so as well. With the unusually dry condi- tions much of the winter wheat across South Dakota was planted into last fall, there is considerable concern about the viability of the crop. Although some regions of the state have received precipitation, many areas remain quite dry. Pro- ducers may need to adjust their cropping plans, depending on how the spring progresses in terms of weather and precipitation. While meeting with a producer, it became apparent that he had plans in place. While he devoutly follows no-till farming practices, a field fire forced him to use emer- gency tillage to stop wind erosion that was occurring on some of his fields. He traveled at a right-angle to the prevailing wind, using a tillage tool with wide-spaced shanks, and skipping two widths of the implement between passes. His logic was that if dry conditions persist he could come back a sec- ond or a third time, in the un- touched ground to hopefully bring up clods of soil to stop the erosion. His cropping plans are also based on a what if scenario. If ad- equate precipitation is received by the acceptable date to plant spring wheat, the seed will go in. If not, the ground will lay idle until con- ditions are favorable for another crop that the timing for planting is right. If all else fails, he plans to plant cover crops to take advan- tage of whatever moisture arrives to grow some residue and get the land into condition for the future. Managers of a cattle operation recently requested help in design- ing an irrigation system to better ensure their ability to raise for- ages. Not everyone has the soils or the water resources to do so, but they are planning ahead rather than waiting and hoping. A concern with livestock produc- ers across much of the state is the ability to raise enough forage to meet their needs. One potential source is winter wheat fields that may have less than adequate stands for optimal grain yields. Wheat can produce relatively high quality forage, and it may be ben- eficial to plant additional materi- als into poor stands to beef up yields instead of destroying the crop and starting over.

Johnson, SDSU Range Specialist and Rod Baumberger, SD NRCS, along with strong support from SD Natural Resources Conservation Service, SDSU (South Dakota State University), SDACD (SD As- sociation of Conservation Dis- tricts). This years event is being co-sponsored by the Jackson and Haakon County Conservation Dis- tricts. Originally Rangeland Days and Soil Days were two separate events, both geared to help edu- cate youth of one, of our most valu- able resources, Rangelands. Rangeland and Soil Days are still separate events, but are now held at the same time and location each year. Student competitions are based upon age group and experi- ence level, and winners advance to the National Land and Range Judging Contest held in Oklahoma in May of 2014. In addition, to the above men- tioned events, there is also a Stu- dent Talks competition, and the winner will be given the opportu- nity to present his/her talk at the February, 2014 International Soci- ety for Range Management meet- ing in Orlando, Florida. CSP (Conservation Stewardship Program) is a voluntary program that encourages agricultural and forestry producers to undertake additional conservation activities and improve and maintain exist- ing conservation systems. CSP provides financial and technical assistance to help land stewards conserve and enhance soil, water, air and natural resource related resources on their land. Sign up is year around with funding consid- eration batching dates, announced during the year, and we just re- ceived notification that it is look- ing promising there will be a batching date yet this fiscal year (before Sept. 30, 2013), but no date has been announced at this time. EQUP EQIP (Environmental Quality Incentives Program) is a voluntary program that provides technical and financial assistance to produc- ers, needing to improve their lands through practices such as livestock water development (well, pipeline, tank, springs, pond), seedings (hayland, pasture, range), living shelterbelts (windbreaks), and cross fence. Sign up is year around with funding consideration batching dates, announced during the year. For more information on the 2013 CSP and/or EQIP pro- grams/application process, techni- cal services available, and 2013 Rangeland/Soil Day Event, please call 605-837-2242 Ext. 3 or stop in at the office located at 805 Main Street at the USDA Service Center, for further assistance.
