St. Nicholas Ministry touches lives and gives joy, peace, love, hope
The St. Nicholas Ministry has touched the lives of thousands of persons through- out its 36 years of service to the less fortunate and needy persons of the various communities in the Colorado, Fayette and Lavaca counties. In the Advent-Christmas season, we hear about and sing of joy, peace, love and hope. “I think of the St. Nicholas Ministry as helping to bring that to these families in a very real way,” says Pastor Herb Beyer of the Sri-County Cooperative Ministries, ELCA.

Ease Stress, Anxiety, & Depression with a Vitamin
Ease Stress, Anxiety, & Depression with a Vitamin
Stress, anxiety, and depression appear to be epidemic in our modern culture. Recent studies reveal that nearly 1 in 4 Americans are currently taking prescription mental health medication. Reasons for this increased societal anxiety may be difficult to determine. Many blame demonic social media, poor nutrition, and pathetic sleep habits. Some believe the lowered stigma regarding mental health issues may play a role. Include with this a toxic political climate, frightening current events, and the state of world affairs. I would also add an increasing lack of genuine spiritual connection, declining faith in God and subsequent shrinking church attendance as factors. As our once stable societal foundation is shaken in this country, many find them selves stressed, anxious, and depressed. While simple answers to hard problems are difficult to some by, here is something that might offer significant help – vi tamin B12. Medical research has shown that B12 can be effective in treating anxiety and depression in humans. 11/15/2023 23:00
