Note: On July 21 Bobby Sterling had his bike stolen at the Post Morrow Marina. Many of his friends rallied to the cause and raised money to replace the bike, Newsday told the story on Thursday, Aug. 30. Bobby replied to the good gesture: "Everybody knows me and everybody cares about me. They're very kind. I appreciate them."

Note: Recent months have seen a flood of Central American unaccompanied children and mothers with children. This has been deemed a humanitarian crisis. As people of faith, we (the Presbyterian Church USA) are called to treat foreigners as God's people who are to be welcomed. Many of our churches along the border are doing just that by providing shelter, food and clothing. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, working with ecumenical partners, is working to provide financial support. If you care to contribute, mail a check to Presbyterian Church (USA) PO Box 643700, Pittsburgh, PA 15264-3700 or make a check out to Old South Haven and that amount will be forwarded. May these children and their families be treated with dignity and respect, and may their safety and protection be ensured.
