tar, The Journal:
response to a letter
two weeks ago, written
Mrs. Miller concerning the
of pastors and elders,we
like to bring to light what
Word of God has to say on
; subject.
In Acts Chapter 6, Luke the
tells how the body of
st, the church, dealt with the
of delegating work. The
uation here was strife

the Hebrews because the
widows were being

weren't called to deal with other Legislature from the 24th
problems, just the most
important one - getting people
saved.
This truth is backed up in
Ephesians 4:ll, 12. "And He
appointed some to be apostles;
and some, prophets; and some
evangelistsi and some pastors and
teachers; for the perfecting of
the saints, for the work of the
ministry, and the edifying of the
body of Christ."
You can see by His Word
that God has chosen these men
for a special purpose. Instead of
judging pastors and elders for
their laziness, we should thank
God for them while praying for
them constantly. As for the
layman's part, all our work
should be done joyfully, because
it is a sacrifice to our loving
God.
Christians: We have a job to
do, the preaching of the gospel.
Let's leave the strife to win award
everybody else.

I have lived in this area
almost all of my life; and the
most destructive thing we ever
did with fireworks was to blow a
soup can into the air. We never
thought of willfully and
maliciously destroying another
person's property. I hope the
person or persons who destroyed
my property will take a good
look at themselves, and in all
honesty, if they can be proud of
what they have done, they do
not have much respect for
themselves.

Representatives Position 1 in the
24th District.
"I'm proud of what I have
accomplished in the Legislature
during the past two years. I
think I have brought the
government closer to the people
of the district and I have made
great strides towards helping the
Legislature, as a body,
understand the concerns of the
average citizen," Owen said.
He listed his major
accomplishment during the past
legislative session as an
amendment to the Criminal
Justice Training Act that
mandated the funds for training
law officers, as provided under
the act, would come from an
assessment on bail forfeitures.
"That amendment made two
important points," Owen said.
"It put the financial burden for
training the law enforcement
officers on the lfiw violators and
it presented an alternate method
of financing the training rather
than just passing the act and
placing the burden on the local
governments to pay for the
training of their officers."
Owen said he has used his
position as vice chairman of the
Local Government Committee to
block other legislation that
would have mandated the
expenditure of local government
money.
"It is time state government
tended to its own house and quit
passing expensive programs and
then expect the local
governments to pay for them.
These mandatory expenditures
work an undue hardship,
particularly on small cities and
counties, of which the Olympic
Peninsula is composed."
In addition to the Local
Government Committee, Owen
has also been an active member
of the Natural Resources and the
Commerce Committees.
Owen said he intends to
wage a vigorous campaign very
similar to the one which elected
him two years ago: "I won this
office by knocking on doors and
talking with• people to learn of
their concerns and I intend to be
reelected through the same kind
of strenuous campaigning," he
said.

We recently built a new
sanctuary to our church. Our
pastor, assistant pastor, deacons
and church members all put in
many hard, volunteer hours on
the carpentry for the church and
cleaning and yard work.
We all could feel a part
because the women prepared hot
meals on Saturdays for the crew
and even did some staining and
kept things handy for the crew.
