For as long as just about any local golfer can remember, one thing consistent with every summer is Beaver Creel Golf Course. It's been here for decades, it's weathered hellacious winters, floods, hail, wind and heat. It's been through a lot over the years, and yet, it still stands. Over the years, BCGC has also changed owners a few times as well, and that's the case as the great old course heads into the busy summer months of 2021. Recently, longtime Hi-Line residents Craig...
Construction on the new St. Mary’s Catholic Church on Rocky Boy’s Indian Reservation will begin with a groundbreaking ceremony Sunday 20 after a Mass that begins at 11:30 a.m. Father Joseph Tran said the ceremony will last between 15 and 30 minutes, and Bishop Michael Warfel will be in attendance. The old church, built in 1979 in a community effort using 200 logs harvested on the reservation to replace the former church, was a total loss in the Dec. 14, 2019, fire, which was caused by a faulty furnace. Since the fire, Tra...

Out our way, things go pretty smooth most of the time up on the Tiger Ridge. After all, the pastures are fenced, there is good water, and usually good grazing. Even so, Charlie and I would regularly go check the herd, for things were not always easy and fine. Sometimes the lack of rain dried out the upper reservoir and the grass simply didn't come in like it normally would, so we would have to move the herd to another pasture. Sometimes, as I have written about before, a...
Last Sunday, I preached a message titled "I Am Healed." Here are some highlights from that message: We have to be careful not to draw conclusions about the will of God based on bad experiences.

The earthly reality of something doesn't...

Gramps knows she's there, but waits until she pats his arm, turns, smiles and picks her up. She hugs him just as little sister hugs Daddy; she puts her head on his shoulder and shuts her eyes. So cute. Dads and fathers, may you pay...
