“Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery” (Hebrews 2:14-15).
Howard Payne University recently recognized four students at its annual Servant Leadership Awards Chapel for their servant leadership on campus and in the community. Those honored were Brylee Awbrey of Midland, Patricia Garibaybartolo of Nolanville, Luke Moss of Brownwood and Evangeline Skolaut of New Braunfels.
During my pre-retirement, I accepted work assignments to two other Texas cities where daily newspapers were also managed by the company that then was also operating the Bulletin. Each was of a comparable size as Brownwood, and each was the county seat of counties with populations similar to ours.
