5 pastors’ wives share blessings, challenges of their calling for Pastor Appreciation Month
Colorado | October 25, 2021
Standing at 6-feet-tall, Jessie Roseberry of Indiana can still recall when she first fell in love with her husband. It was on the campus of her Christian college about a decade ago. She locked eyes with someone “amazingly” taller than her. At 6-foot-7-inches tall, Eric Roseberry would later become a pastor, her best friend and her husband.
In 2005, the 19-year-old was completing a dual degree in nursing and missionary studies. She said it was his “peculiar” but “attractive” height that first grabbed her attention. She couldn’t help but notice his “wide” and “bright” smile from ear to ear.
Eric Roseberry approached his future wife, and the conversation that ensued instantly revealed an “irresistible” and “romantic” chemistry. Jessie Roseberry already had a boyfriend at the time. But immediately after the encounter, she broke things off with her boyfriend because she knew she had met her future husband. …

‘Ambush-Style’ Attacks on Law Enforcement Skyrocketing in 2021: Union
Colorado | September 3, 2021
The number of “ambush-style” attacks on law enforcement officers has leapt this year, a national police union says.
Data show 83 officers were shot in 67 separate ambush-style attacks between Jan. 1 and Aug. 31, according to the National Fraternal Order of Police.
That’s up 148 percent from the same time period last year.
“It’s just a massive increase,” Joe Gamaldi, vice president of the union and a Houston police sergeant, told The Epoch Times.
Officers can be ambushed when people make a fake 911 call in an attempt to lure them to an area and attack them. One such attack unfolded in Arvada, Colorado, in June, leaving police officer Gordon Beasley dead. Another took place in Nashville in June… (Excerpts from the Epoch Times)

Colorado, Maine, Mississippi | August 20, 2021
Three U.S. senators on Thursday said they tested positive for COVID-19 despite being fully vaccinated against the virus that causes it.
Sens. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.), 70, Angus King (I-Maine), 77, and John Hickenlooper (D-Colo.), 69, are the latest prominent U.S. officials to contract so-called breakthrough infections of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
Wicker’s spokesman, Phillip Waller, said the senator tested positive on Thursday morning after seeking a test due to mild symptoms.
“Senator Wicker is fully vaccinated against COVID-19, is in good health, and is being treated by his Tupelo-based physician. He is isolating, and everyone with whom Senator Wicker has come in close contact recently has been notified,” Waller said in a statement.
King said he’s been taking precautions since March 2020, including wearing a mask, social distancing, and driving back and forth to Washington instead of flying…. (Excerpts from the Epoch Times)

This Parent Says He and His Children Aren’t ‘Victims of America’
Colorado | August 18, 2021
A black parent in Colorado who opposes “social justice,” the Black Lives Matter movement, and “critical race theory” (CRT) let his town know how he feels.
His ancestors were slaves, but this parent said, “I’m not oppressed, and I’m not a victim.” He said he travels all across the country, checks into hotels, flies commercially, and goes to restaurants when and wherever he wants — and he’s treated with kindness, dignity, and respect. He said his three children aren’t oppressed, either. However, they are victims only to their own ignorance, their own laziness, and their own poor decision-making.
He said putting CRT in our classrooms “is taking America in the wrong direction.” And he wasn’t done. Watch the clip for more… (Excerpts from Black Community News)

House Republicans Call for Comprehensive Audit of Pandemic-Related Unemployment Insurance Fraud
Alabama, California, Colorado, Texas | July 11, 2021
Thirty House members, all Republicans, asked the Labor Department acting inspector general to do an “official audit” of unemployment insurance fraud during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It is past time we learned how much of American taxpayers’ dollars have actually been given to fraudulent claims,” the lawmakers wrote in a letter (pdf) to Acting Inspector General Larry Turner on July 8. “We therefore urge that United States Department of Labor, Office of the Inspector General conduct an official audit to determine to what extent did fraud occur in COVID-related unemployment assistance programs.”
Reps. Doug Lamborn (R-Colo.), Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), Mo Brooks (R-Ala.), Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), and 25 other House Republicans coauthored the letter.
The Republicans said that fraudulent activities are still running rampant across the country in unemployment insurance programs, citing a report from Turner’s office and a media report….
