To begin this letter, I would like to thank you for donating prayer and money to support Diamond Willow Ministries. You were very much a huge part of my recent trip there, as well as the boys camp that took place through the ministry.
Diamond Willow Ministries calls their summer camps Cantemawaste Camp for the youth in the community. Cante is the Dakota word for ‘heart’ and Waste means ‘good’. This phrase stands for ‘something good in your heart’. Throughout the week, I pondered several times which moments I would tell you about later. Was there anything the boys said that would make you laugh? Was there a moving moment that would make you cry? I wish you were there too in order to see exactly what it was that you did. Even more accurately,

He didn’t want to look at me, he wouldn’t talk to me, and even when I was near him he would (very obviously) scoot away. By the end of the week, he had said barely ten words to me in total! I know nothing still of his background or what home is like for him, but I understand the environment of the reservation, and I can tell you that the society he’s grown up in is very different than any of ours. I couldn’t expect him to want to participate in all the things we were asking of him, and it certainly wouldn’t have been fair for me to expect him to behave the way I wished him to. However, despite all, he worked diligently on memorizing scripture (which he was amazingly good at), and by the end of the week, I noticed him participating in worship. This was a small, seemingly simple moment, but with big significance. He, whether he understood it or not, was putting something good in his heart. Scripture itself tells us time and time again to store up God’s word in our hearts, and to guard it. Diamond Willow is creating environments like these for these children to learn that habit! Who knows when those memorized verses and worship songs will come to mind in their futures? God alone
I am very thankful to have been given this amazing opportunity of shadowing at Terwilliger Plaza. I am grateful for all the hands on experience I was given, which helped me gain an enormous amount of knowledge. This experience has helped me go out of my comfort zone, and I was able to figure out the right career path for me. A big thank you goes out to the CNA nurses I shadowed, I learned a lot from them and will forever be thankful. Thank you so much
This email is a quick reminder of the meeting tomorrow in J-5 during lunch. We will be sending out a Remind before lunch as another quick reminder. It is especially important that you show up at the meeting tomorrow as we will be going over the particulars of semester 2. For all the freshmen in the email list, you can join CSF this semester! If you know any freshmen interested in joining a club, CSF is perfect because they can fill out the life membership requirements earlier by starting now. Bring any of your interested friends to meeting tomorrow as they will also be able to join the club. I look forward to beginning a new semester of CSF with you all!
It is with regret that I have to let you all know that Connie will be leaving the WISH Team on June 9th. Connie has accepted a position where she will utilize her social work license. We will miss Connie she has been a great addition to the WISH team.
Dear Saint Joseph’s Academy School Board: I have recently been informed about the hearings being held with the SJA Board of Education because one group of parents wants to have Unwind by Neal Shusterman removed from both the classroom and the library. I questioned myself whether or not this book should be banned from curriculum or should continue to be available for all students. Although this book may be pegged as controversial and inappropriate for younger readers, I firmly believe that positive messages and thought-provoking writing far outweighs the smaller offenses. Upon looking at the reasons the group of parents wanted this book to be banned, I saw that a primary concern was the talk of violence and sex. I understand how one can believe the whole book is filled with violence if they have not read it, but that is not the case.
I hope this email finds you well. I am planning to apply for the Educational Leadership Doctoral Program and would be honored if you could write one of my letters or recommendation. The application deadline is April 1st, 2017. I would like to have everything submitted before March 27th, 2017.
We are glad that our Canadian friends can enjoy traditional Mexican cuisine, which are prepared with high-quality ingredients, cleanness, and for the best possible price. Offering you a great service is our main commitment!
On the behalf of Department of Public Health (California), I am writing you urge your support for the legislation about rising the legal age of smoking from 18 to 21. I am constituent/voter in your area and I think it is necessary that you that issue of smoking at 18 or less than 18 is very important for the public health because there is a huge increase in population of teenage smokers in California.
I just wanted to check with you about the email that would be sent out to any new hiring persons. I understood one would be sent out to anyone that got the position ,and was just wondering if one was sent out to anyone that did not get the job. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything in my email or perhaps over look anything in my email. Thank you for your time .
I am Madison Zaring a sophomore as West Delaware high school, and am also the president of student council. I’m emailing you about this year’s Red Cross Blood Drive. We will need the Seedorf gym for at least 5 hours during the school day and was wondering what day would work best with you. The Red Cross says for them that the best month to do this in would be April, so if you can, have it be sometime in April. Thank you for reading my email, and if possible I need to know by January 30th what date would work best.
I would like more freedom from my parents, and i’m going to persuade them using Ethos. I’m going to establish credibility by stating how i’ve never lied to them about where I was or who I was with, and I am always home when they tell me to be. I have ever done anything without permission. Also I feel I am getting to that age where my parents need to start trusting me. To coincide with that I think it would help build a better relationship between me and my parents. I do everything right to deserve it. I always clean the house, I get good grades, and i’m honest and responsible. Plus my parents already know all my friends and their parents. They know all the possible places where i’d be and the people i’d be with. They even have the numbers of
I would like to let you know that through reading Nicholas Carr’s argument on Google, I may say that I do not completely agree on his viewpoint.
I, Hayden Groth, think that the censorship in the Sheyenne High school library is fine. I understand that some people may think that the content in the library may be offensive. But I think that for the most part, the students at Sheyenne are mature enough to where they can read the books that the library provides.
And I'd like to ask one thing : I paid tuition fee by Western union company CAD 1,800 around on November 1 - 2. And later I recieve the mail about fee. I should have paid just CAD 1750 but i paid CAD 50 more. What I did properly, paying more than a deposit that is, I wonder how.
The more I think about program cost, the more I consider attending a university that will allow be to graduate without accruing insurmountable debts. Like I mentioned before, UNM is my top choice, but I surely do not want to limit my potential opportunities by ruling out other programs. I guess I had never thought about asking if UNM’s program prioritizes their own undergraduate students. From what I have observed, graduate cohort makeup varies by year. For example, many non-degree students were accepted last year; undergraduate students seemed to be in the minority. This year, however, it appears to be the exact opposite. This may just be an error in observing, but I think it would be helpful to know if my chances are any better
“For what reason, for what glorified, violent justice where you murdered without emotion or mercy? I’m slowly losing my mind, I’m losing myself in shame! I have failed you mother, you knew I couldn’t survive. However, I was unaware of how I wasn’t strong enough trying hard to become your only protecting hope, and yet I ran from you anyway to attack in arrogant anger, regardlessly leaving you additionally defenseless every time in an endless chase, and I failed you as a result. However, conversely, I'm here to confess petrified with emptiness and loneliness, that is to say while your uniquely loving and tender tears fell and shattered around me. Surprisingly truly they felt like sweet kisses from an angel, as a result they broke my heart that
