IVHS swim team kicked, stroked to stellar first season
Although the Illinois
Valley High School team
did not make it to state com-
petition this year, three of its
four swimmers came away
from the State District 4
Meet with ribbons, placing
in the top 12 out of 146 total
competitors.
They came away as
better swimmers, with more
knowledge of the sport, and
enthusiasm to do it again
next year, said coach Cyn-
thia Hobbins.
Three out of the four
swimmers are hoping to
continue staying in shape by
joining the Stingrays Swim
Club in Grants Pass.
“This will give them a
much-better opportunity to
make it to state next sea-
son,” said Hobbins. “As
first-year competitors, these
fine athletes made me very
proud. We would like to see
the swim team grow.
“I would also like to
once again have a summer
swim club at our Cave Junc-
tion Pool, if we can get it
open,” she added.
“I am working on get-
ting my USA Coaching cre-
dential and seeing if we may
be ‘umbrellaed’ under the
Grants Pass YMCA’s Sting-
rays,” she said. “Swimming
is a lifetime sport, and these
athletes deserve recognition
for their efforts.”

The Lenten Season offi-
cially begins today, Ash
Wednesday, and will con-
tinue until we celebrate the
Easter Triduum starting on
Holy Thursday evening.
The First Sunday of
Lent will include a reading
from Genesis where God
told Noah after the flood, “I
will establish my covenant
with you, that never again
shall bodily creatures be
destroyed by the waters of a
flood; there shall not be an-
other flood to devastate the
earth.”
We will also read from
Mark’s Gospel about Jesus
being in the desert for 40
days and being tempted by
Satan.
Seventh-day Adventist
Students from Milo Ad-
ventist Academy gave three
sermonettes Saturday on the
different types of love, espe-
cially the Agape love that
God manifests toward us,
which is completely without
reservation and uncondi-
tional.
One student gave a vio-
lin solo. Another student
read an interesting chil-
dren’s story for all the chil-
dren in the congregation.
The students challenged the
congregation to demonstrate
God’s Agape Love to every-
one in the community. A
special vegetarian luncheon
was served to the students
and their sponsors.
Big Jim Sutton, rancher
and businessman from Day-
ton, Tenn., will speak to the
congregation Saturday.
His sermon title is:
“Rich … in His Presence.”
He will testify how God
saved him from the San
Francisco cocktail circuit and
brought him joy in serving
Christ, as his personal savior.
Sutton has became a lay
leader as lay evangelist. He
has spoken to many church
congregations in America
and abroad.

Don’t turn to bad health
habits for comfort; besides
maintaining a nutritious diet
and staying active, some
doctors recommend taking a
supplement formulated to
reduce stress.
Finally, perform selfless
actions that can give you a
sense of purpose at a time
when things seem out of
your control.

Sunday’s lesson con-
cerned the Transfiguration
of Jesus where Moses and
Elijah appeared. The disci-
ples were able to see the true
nature of God’s son.
It was but a visit, as the
paths for Jesus and the disci-
ples lay in the valleys be-
low, with crucifixion and
persecution.
We can learn that
mountaintop experiences are
occasional, and our faith and
trust need to guide us in our
daily lives.
There will be a Lenten
soup supper at 6 p.m. with
service at 7 p.m. on March
