Hello everyone my name is Katy Wolf and I am the current president of the Windthorst FFA chapter. I enjoy all aspects of the agriculture industry. I will be continuing my education next year at Tarleton State University to become an Ag teacher. I have shown tractors my junior and senior years of high school and have been blessed to receive many awards doing so such as,3 grand champion titles, 1 reserve championship title, one best in show title, and multiple blue ribbons. I am beyond blessed to have had all of these experiences through the FFA and I can’t wait to inspire and help students of my own reach their full potential.

Thank you to Donna Haile for her donations in memory of Archie Mayfield and in memory of Archie Hodges. ************* Wealthy Washington suburbanites Marissa and Matthew Bishop seem to have it all―until Marissa is unfaithful. Beneath their veneer of perfection is a relationship riven by work and a lack of intimacy. She wants to repair things for the sake of their eight-year-old son and because she loves her husband.

The Humility of Christ

Philippians 2:5-7 5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in very nature God,did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; 7 rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. Our Christ is amazing, isn’t He? As our God in human form, He demonstrates for us through word and deed the will of our Heavenly Father for all of time.
