It will run through this Friday, Oct. 25. Students will be participating in activities in their classrooms and on campus to encourage healthy, drug-fre- e lifestyles and a life where violence is not used to resolve conflicts. The Ribbon Campaign was launched when Federal Agent Enrique Camarena was mur- dered by drug traffickers in 1985. The Red Ribbon is the symbol of the need to reduce the demand for drugs. The Purple ribbon was added in 1993 to represent violence prevention. The red and purple ribbon create positive peer choices pressure about drug-fre- e and is the rallying point for millions of children and adults who share the commitment to live healthy, safe lives. Families can demonstrate their commitment to healthy, safe lifestyles by wearing and displaying red and purple ribbons dur MOAB apply - Call for details.

Salt Lake City Moab Salt Lake City Moab Saturday Sunday ' am arr pm pm - . You can be just a Christian! by Evangelist Samuel A. Matthews Moab church of Christ Do you know that you can be a Christian, a member of the church of the Lord, forgiven of your sins, and assured of the promise of eternal life - all without ever joining any denomination, being bound by any human creed, or submitting to any final human authonty in your religion? Not only can you be, but the Lord wants you to be (Matt 7:21; 15.8-9)- ! Throughout the world, people are studying their New Testaments with the thrilling awareness that the way to Christ and the salvation He offers is clearly revealed. These people are learning that the Word of God is the seed (Luke 8:11), and that just as the seed produced Christians when preached and received into honest and good" hearts in the first century (Luke 8:15), so it will produce the same now. It is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to convey to modem religionists the idea of undenominational Christianity. Steeped in sectarian practices, creeds and dogmas of men, they have the idea that unhodgepodge and amalgamation of all religious beliefs, or some campaign in which all the churches are invited to engage. But this concept is diametrically opposed to Bible-base- d Christianity. In speaking of becoming a Christian, the world immediately asks: What kind of Christian? They insist that the name Christian be qualified with a prefix or suffix - by some definitive, delineating adjective. If, however, one contends he is just a Christian and a Christian only, the world is at a loss to know where 1 9 place him. But let us investigate this further. Just what kind ofa Christian was Peter, Paul, or the Ethiopian eunuch? They lived and died long before the first sectdenomination was begun! Were they not simply New Testament Christians nothing more, and nothing less? -- Did they not all belong to the same church over which Christ was head 5:23; Col 1:18, 24)?

They the band played great music and everyone danced. This is one of Ericas favorite memories of school so far. Like seniors everywhere, she will be creating many more memories the rest of this year. Ammon Shumway is the son of Dick and Chris Shumway He is a senior at GCHS who has attended Grand County Schools from Kindergarten to the present.

Taking advantage of the concurrent enrollment program, Ammon is also taking chemistry 101. When Ammon looks back over the last three years of high school, his favorite memory is of being on the first GCHS soccer team. He likes the school just the way it is and likes having grown up in a small town where he can, as he says, Get to know lots of people and enjoy the outdoors more readily. Next year Ammon will attend Ricks College in Idaho, major in business or drafting and r mission for then Serve a LDS Church. the The Student of the Month program is sponsored by the Elks Club, under the direction of Val Maughn.

The purpose of the Elks program is to recognize students for their character, leadership ability, citizenship and scholastic performance. ing Ribbon Week. Ribbons will be passed to the public outside City Market. Ribbon Week provides an opportunity for teachable moments with children, enabling discussions about what the acceptable standards of behavior are for individual families. Listed below are ideas to incorporate into family life: Start drug and violence prevention early. Dont be an enabler. Remember that you are a role model for your child. Take advantage of every teachable moment. Reinforce the information and rules you teach. Know what is going on in your childs life at home, at school, and with friends. Know the attitudes towards drugs, alcohol and violence which your child may be learning from other role models and associates. Dont be afraid to set limits. Learn the signs of alcohol use, or involveand drug ment with any violent behaviors. Keep in touch with the parents of your childs friends. If you think your child is trying drugs and alcohol, do something about it. Remember, parent power is stronger than peer pressure. Yearly campaign aims to encourage fs 1 long to any denomination? In their day, when people heard the Gospel (Acts 15:7; cf. Luke 11:28), believed it (1 Cor 15:1-2- ; repented of their cf. Mark 1:15), sins (Acts 3:19; cf. Luke 13:3), confessed Christ (Rom 10.9-1cf. 0; Matt 10:32-33and WERE BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST (Gal 3:27; 1 Cor 12:13), the Lord saved them (Mark 16.16; 1 Pet 3.21), forgave their sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16), and added them to His church (Acts 2.41, 47). Those new creatures (Rom 6 4; 2 Cor 5. 17) were simply ), called Christians (Acts 11:26; 1 Pet 4.16). In all their work and worship they were guided by the apostles doctrine - the Word of the Lord (Acts 2:42; 2 Tim 3:16-17Now, if the same Gospel preached by the apostles were preached today, and if the people obeyed the terms of that Gospel as they did in the first century, what kind of ). Christians would they be? Ib wh.t church would they be added (Acts 2:47)? Would they not simply be members of the church which Jesus built (Matt 16:18, Rom 16:16), or would they be a part of some mod- ern man-mad- e denominational church? You can see that the answer is clear. Can we persuade you to do what the Bible teaches andjust become just a Christian (Acts 26.28-29)- ? Please, search the above Scriptures and see whether these things are so (Acts 17:11).
