Dear Liberty Leader,

Here is what I would like printed:  Hi Merry

Christmas & Happy New Year to all, there is
only one person in your pretty little town who
these poems would possibly mean anything to. 
So I am hoping beyond hope that he sees this
and remembers!  To the one who ten years ago
made my holiday season the most magical ever
and then drove out of my town never to return. 
May you know that you were loved then and
you are loved still, if you don't know who you
are by now below are a couple of poems that
may help to jog your memory.  If you happen to
remember and would like to contact me please
feel free to do so at blancotam@yahoo.com.
Once again thank you for being kind enough to
let me do this, please wish me luck!!!!!

I LOST MY HEART TO LIBERTY
My heart was rather rare
Looked just like a Teddy Bear.
Was loving, kind and fun to hold,
And it wasn't even very old.
Said it was mine and had come to stay.
Then all of a sudden just went away!
Please if you see my heart,
Would you send it home right away!
If at first, you are not sure, that it's
my heart you see.
Just ask it, if it remembers

At The Well
At the center of the Village is a deep
well of life-giving water where the
townspeople meet. As they draw water
their voices blend in the culture, society
and wisdom that they share. Each
month meet here at the well to hear
those voices. Unexpected gifts are the
ones we like the best. Sometimes truth
is stranger than fiction. This is one of
those times. I am riding with my sister
and her family to celebrate Christmas Eve at Granna and Pop’s. We
will meet the rest of our family there for an evening meal. It is very
cold, with a glaze of ice forming on the trees already, but the road is
clear. Our drive will take us almost an hour north and west. The
weather is supposed to improve, and we sincerely hope this is the
case. When I join them in their car, I feel tension. Some conversation
tips me off that the 14-year-old Hannah, had to do her make-up three
times, causing us to run late. She was an only child until Rena was
born 3 months ago. It has been a rocky road since then. Rena was
planned so that Hannah would have a sister to share life with, now
and forever. Hannah has little to do with Rena and sees her as ‘the
problem’ that rocks the boat of their whole life. “What else can go
wrong?” the father and driver, Randy, asks no one in particular. “The
fuel light is on, which means we have a half gallon of gas in the tank.
I planned to fill up on the way and was distracted when we ran late.
I think we can make it. No need to turn back now, we will stop on
the way home”. Crisis averted for now, I speak of today’s plan to
cook the meal together after we gather. Instead of giving gifts, we
will create memories. “I think it’s stupid”, quips the teenager, “I
won’t get any gifts at all”. She pouts and stares out of the window at
the trees holding even more ice as we travel north. “I hate the old,
drafty house at Granna and Pop’s, with those old fashioned long,
square sofas” she continues, in her mood. “Are we sliding?” two of
us ask at the same time. “Yes, it’s black ice,” confirms Randy, adding
“But we’re almost there now”. Minutes later we arrive. We hurry
into the house with our raw foods on this raw day. Only Granna and
Pop are there, waiting for us. No others have arrived. “Some of the
others have called and say to start cooking the meal and they’d come
a little later if the weather gets better” reported Pop. “Glad you
made it here safely, the weather’s getting really rough now”.
Granna had put small hens in the oven to bake and they were about
half done. This would give us perhaps an hour to cook the rest of the
meal. It was just turning dark outside, earlier now on these short
days. Suddenly, the whole house goes dark. “Did we trip a
breaker?” Mom calls to Dad through the semi-darkness, while the
rest of us are shocked into silence. He goes feeling for the flashlight.
We hear a click, click and dark remains. “The batteries must be
dead” he mumbles. “Where are more batteries?” asks a voice in the
dark. “I meant to buy some”, which tells us there aren’t any. “Do we
still have the lamp from Great Grandma?” “Maybe in the garage”.
We hear folks speaking and can only see outlines of them now. The
lamp is found, but the globe is smoky and dusty. The oil is thick
with yellow clumps in it. The wick crank is rusty and stuck solid.
The wick is lit and burns away where it is out of the oil finally hitting
a steady flame. Granna picks up the phone to call the neighbor.
“The phone isn’t working either,” she laments. “Is it a wireless
phone?” I ask. “Yes, why” she answers. “Because only phones with
cords work when the power is out”, I say. “We threw that old phone
out, I thought it was outdated”. “I can use my cell” Hannah joins in.
“There are no towers near here. Remember, that’s why we
don’t have cell phones” says Pop. This is beginning to feel,
not like Christmas Eve, but like some bad dream. We soon
find that the power outage is wide spread when we go outside
and look toward the neighbor a quarter mile away. We also

summertime?” her mother asks a double question when she
realizes what Hannah has worn. “Everybody wears this, it’s
cool” Hannah answers “and I did not bring a coat since I was
going to the warm car and riding to a warm house. I didn’t
plan to be cold. Let’s go run the car engine and turn the heat Compost &
on high.” “Great idea from the make up queen, remember we
have no gas in the car?” “We will find a blanket” I say, to
avert more tension between them. Granna finds all the ‘non- For Your

clothing is warmer than cotton. We soon look like the Salva-

adds some cheese and crackers that she finds and prepares in the
dark. She put the half-baked hens outside on the screened porch to
freeze. There is no water, because the well pump is electric, so it’s
good we brought tea. “Hope the power comes back on soon”, some-
one says in the lamplight. “It’s really not so bad” says Hannah, look-
ing as if she is playing military dress up with wool. “I think it is kind
of fun”. This is the most positive thing to come out of her mouth in a
long time. Rena begins to cry, not enjoying her bottle since it is cold.
Hannah reaches for Rena and cradles her close inside the big army
jacket to keep them both warm. The adults would have rolled eyes
at each other if they could see each other’s eyes. This was a first.
With ‘dinner’ done, Pop did what had been done once when he was
a boy. He dragged the mattress into the big mostly empty living
room, flipped those long, old, square sofas onto their faces, made the
whole thing comfortable with the big couch cushions and covered
the whole thing with one of those plastic table covers to keep the
body heat inside the structure. We all watched and helped when he
instructed us as to what he needed help with. “Come get in” he
finally spoke, after his masterpiece was finished. “ It will be very
warm and comfortable”. We all had room inside, thanks to those big
sofas, and settled in to keep warm. It was one of those times when it
just feels so good that nobody talks. It didn’t matter whether your
eyes were open or closed. It looked the same. In the silence, Rena
began to whimper, and then the most astounding thing happened.
In the dark and cold of this Christmas Eve, a voice began to sing.
Hannah, in the most-lovely high soprano voice, began to sing ‘Away
in a Manger’ to her baby sister. It was so crystal and unworldly,
there in the dark, that it sounded angelic. We were transported to
another cold, dark Christmas night in an unlikely stable where an-
other teen mother, awkwardly held her baby boy and sang to soothe
him. Rena fell asleep in Hannah’s arms. Granna was sniffling, and I
had tears freely flowing. This unlikely girl, receiving the gift that this
whole evening had brought, and sharing it with us. We had not
heard her voice, except for complaint, in a very long time. This is her
gift to us this Christmas. It is unforgettable. Early the next morning, Let Us Do Your Holiday Baking For You

wants help to make a much needed, hot breakfast. The house begins

conversation turns to what impacted each of us most. Hannah says
she ‘got’ everything she wanted, and realized that she didn’t even
need fancy clothes, make up or a cell phone to be truly happy. The

But she had no idea they were laughing at her, so she stood tall,
proudly holding her "W". Although many teachers tried to shush

loud and clear: CHRIST WAS LOVE. And, I believe, He still is.

The Reason For The Season

As we near the time of Christmas, we see the decorations going up. the people
madly shopping for gifts. the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season. Now is
the time to stop and reflect just why we really celebrate this time. As Christians,
we are the only ones who know the real meaning of Christmas and why it is a
time of celebration and what that celebration means to all who will believe. If
there were no Jesus, there would be no Christmas.
As you see the many slogans being pandered around you, take time every day to
explain the real meaning of what is being said.... "Peace on earth, good will to
men"... "Joy to the world"... "Hark, the herald Angels sing"... "'round yon virgin,
mother and Child". Think about what each of these things means to you as a
born again believer, then share them with others - especially with others who
don't know Jesus or understand his incredible, eternal, unconditional love for us
all. As you prepare your gift list, be sure to make the first gift for everyone on
your list the free gift of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
As you ponder on the
One who is the Reason for
the Season, make sure
that you know who He is
- that He is God (not "A"
god or "one of the" gods).
Just as He identified Him-
self to Moses in Exodus
3:14 as "I AM", He identi-
fied Himself to the Jews
in John 8:58 again as "I
AM". Why is it important
to know who He is? Jesus

  THE CHRISTMAS SEASON IS QUICKLY
APPROACHING! ARE YOU READY??
Reduce clutter during the Holidays
 
  You’ve found the perfect tree. Now it’s time to head up to the attic and get down the boxes
and boxes of decorations that make their way into the house one month a year. Don’t forget
you also have to find a way to squeeze ten relatives in a house meant for six people. Or you
have guests staying during the holidays and need to de-clutter the guest room. We have all
wished for more storage space around the holidays, we just don’t have it.
There is an alternative though, one that is becoming more and more popular each year:
UNITS Mobile Storage. These storage containers can be rented for the month (or the year!)
and house all the things you need to get out of your family home to accommodate decora-
tions, gifts, holiday visitors and your holiday party! They can be kept in your own drive-
way or at our warehouse storage facility in town – just decide what is most convenient for
you!
Just make sure this holiday season is stress
free, so you are sitting back drinking Egg
Nog and wondering what you are going to
do with all this new extra space.

well to give the corner park more of a true “park like
setting”. Mr. Davis also reported that he is currently

Pregnant Turkey
*This is priceless - I would love to do this.*
One year at Thanksgiving, my mom went to my
Sister's' house for the traditional feast. Knowing
How gullible my sister is, my mom decided to
Play a trick. She told my sister that she needed
Something from the store.
When my sister left, my mom took the turkey out of
The oven, removed the stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen,
And inserted it into the turkey, and re-stuffed the
Turkey. She then placed the bird(s) back in the oven.
When it was time for dinner, my sister pulled the
Turkey out of the oven and proceeded to remove the
Stuffing. When her serving spoon hit something,
She reached in and pulled out the little bird.
With a look of total shock on her face, my mother
Exclaimed, "Patricia, you've cooked a pregnant
Bird!" At the reality of this horrifying news,
My sister started to cry.
It took the family two hours to convince her that
Turkeys lay eggs!
Yep..................SHE'S BLONDE!

during a Hospice of Alamance-
given to Hospice in honor of the care that the
organization provided for them in their life-
time. During the dedication, dignitaries, cor-
porate and individual donors, volunteers and
others attended the festivities, marked by a
welcome from Congressman Howard Coble.
He also conducted the ribbon cutting when
the Hospice Home first opened in 1994.
Neighbors and friends of the Jones family are
encouraged to stop by to see the stained glass
and donor board on display in their memory.
Also, the grief and bereavement library lo-
cated off the lobby was named for them. The
area is open to the public to sit and read, pick
up free brochures and pamphlets or check out
books on grief and loss at no charge. Hospice
provides services in the home, a care facility or
the Hospice Home. Since it founded in 1982, they have cared for more than 8,000
patients throughout the community, including Ruth. To find out more, visit them at
914 Chapel Hill Road in Burlington or online at www.hospiceac.org. In the pictures
below you will see the following:
Hospice Lobby = The stained glass and donor board displayed in the Hospice
lobby recognizes the donation of the Ruth and Aubrey Jones estate, which sup-
ported the building fund that ultimately mani-
fested as new offices, a counseling center and
Hospice Home rooms.
Hospice Library Sign = The grief and bereave-
ment library, named for Ruth and Aubrey, was a
welcome addition for the Hospice organization.
Hospice Library Inside = The library offers a
quite place of reflection for visitors.

Rachel's Cry
A cry in pain... a cry for help...a cry for joy....
The “Rachel’s Cry” ministry was born out of a desire to
help women and men get past the pain of abortion and
miscarriage. It was my experience that only the grace of
God could heal the brokenness and devastation that was
left behind after the loss of my baby. Each story is different
but the common thread is the same…we have lost some-
thing precious. Rachel’s Cry offers a place in the presence of
God, where you can come and be made whole again. This
ministry will allow you to begin the healing process, con-
tinue to travel through the process and finally come
through to the end of healing for yourself and for the loss
you have suffered. Where there has been unforgiveness,
shame, grief, guilt and low or no self-worth, there shall be
forgiveness, peace joy and a strong knowing of who you
were created to be in God’s eyes. I hope you will accept this
invitation to “come and be made whole.” You can contact
them at For more information or literature on this ministry,
please call or write to:

WHY CHRISTMAS?
It seems that the current way Americans celebrate
Christmas has become a bad thing lately… Pastors &
Preachers, who love to steal sermon ideas from each
other more than most people realize, have made it so-
cially acceptable to bash on Christmas in recent decades.
It’s to the point that many God-fearing, Bible-believing
Christians have become like the infamous “Scrooge”
character in the Dickens classic in regards to Christmas.
tions. QUESTION #1: “Is this gift going to bless God
& my family in 2011?” Will I be glad I purchased it in
April? QUESTION #2: “Is this gift going to keep me
from giving to God?” Just a thought: robbing Jesus of
His gifts on His birthday… REALLY? For Christmas
to be a blessing for us, we need to keep in mind the
big picture.

yours celebrate Christmas in such a way that you are
about? TWO THINGS: A) Christmas is about us express-
ing our love to God for sending Jesus to save us. Gala-blessed beyond your wildest dreams.

Story By Guest Writer Pastor Randy Hand
Son… to buy freedom for… so that he could adopt us as his
very own children”. WOW!!! Even after 40 years of hear-
ing that, it still blows me away! We celebrate Christmas
because such amazing love requires an amazing response.
B) Christmas is about us expressing our love for God to
others. 1 John 4:11 says: “since God loved us that much, we
surely ought to love each other”. However, most of us are
selfish or ignorant when it comes to expressing love to

others. FIVE ways we receive love: QUALITY TIME ->

TWO of those work on us. TRUTH: 80% of us won’t feel

QUALITY TIME.
2) Keep in mind the BIG PICTURE : Did you know that
the average person had $15,800 in Credit Card Debt in
2010? What’s worse is TWO MILLION PEOPLE are
still paying of Christmas debt today from 2009! Is that
what Jesus meant when He said in Acts 20:35: “It is
more blessed to give than to receive”? It reminds me of
this TRUTH: It is a disgrace to the name of Jesus to
use His birthday as an excuse to sin. I hear all the
time: “But it’s CHRISTMAS, Randy… I had to buy my
babies something! I’ll pay it off―eventually!” RE-
MEMBER: Proverbs 22:7 says: “the borrower is a slave to
the lender”. WOW… whoever we owe money is our

Snow!! Perfect Backdrop For Parade

Wow is all I can say. I believe from what I have heard from most, this was the first
time it has snowed during a Liberty Parade. It was so cool to see this white fluff
falling as the parade made its way down the street. Yes it was cold and several of
the entries did not show due to weather, but we still had a great parade. The spec-

LIBERTY
tators did not let the white stuff stop them. I believe everyone left the parade and
hit the grocery store after wards. Do not know what chemical is in snow that trig-
gers our minds to head to grocery store to buy milk, eggs and bread, but the park-
ing lot was full.  I posted several picks to my facebook, so check them out, you can
see a few in the paper. Having the Randolph County Brass band on a trailer playing was so unique
touch. Several asked about our local high school bands. Well both bands had a conflict of some shorts
and really hated not being here. Providence Grove HS band directors is a husband and wife team and
she was due any day, so I give them a great excuse. Randleman  High School agreed to fill our gap by
stepping in at last moment.  This year had some very unique entiries.  I think this is what make a small
town so great, seeing all your friends at a local parade. I put an entry in the parade and my daughter
and two of her best friends dressed up as elves. I do not know what I enjoyed more, the decorating of
the car with my daughter, to listening to all the laughter from my daugther and her friends in the back
seat, or seeing all the friends as I drove down the street. Regardless of which was the best, is the fact I
had and awesome time. See you at the next great event. This years first place float went to Church Of
God Of Prophecy, second place went to Pleasant Hill Christian Church and third place went to the
Girl Scout Troop. This is what makes a home parade so great, seeing all the home made
floats. This year as in years past, Celebrate Liberty’s Children presented
books to all the children in the parade. This year they went out with
1,000 books. Several kids now look to get them a new book each year.
See you at the next great Liberty Event. You know there’s something
about Liberty.... I think it is the people...what do you think?

You may remember one of our guest writers that was a young
gentleman by the name of Jonathan Branch. Well he as been busy
attending UNC-Chapel Hill, but still to visit Liberty. He knew I was in the
parade and was gracious enough to take the pictures of the parade. Which was a
great gift for me. So Thanks Jonathan Branch for keeping Liberty in your heart.

Nature Library Update
The Liberty Nature Research Library is saddened by Henry
Kings passing. The Liberty was very grateful to be the recipi-
ent of many books and items for the  Nature Library.  During
the month of Dec – Jan several items are on display that were
made by Henry out of nature materials, one is a miniature
replica of an Inukshuk (monuments made of stone by the
Inuit for communication  and survival). We hope that you
have a chance to come by and see them. Liberty Nature Re-
search Library had several visitors this month. Kids-R-Us
Day Care visited on 11-22-10.  We held a nature program for
Cub Scout Pack 502 with a Nature Hunt. The scouts had
several questions to research and also to label the pine
branches and cones on display.  They are working to get their
Naturalist badges. The Scouts looked up the migratory fly-
ways of birds in NC , endangered species of the world, ven-
omous snakes and poisonous plants in the Liberty area. Did
you know that a potato can be poisonous? Come to the Na-
ture Library to read all about it. An interesting and very
active evening for everyone. The displays for Dec –Jan are -  Those Who Served” at the Greensboro Historical Museum was read.

CHRISTmas not Xmas
"...But the angel said to them, Do not be
afraid; for behold, I bring you good news
of a great joy which will come to all the
people. For to you is born this day in the Get Your Gift
town of David a Saviour, Who is Christ
(the Messiah) the Lord!..." Baskets Here
- Luke 2: 10-11
So often these days we see Christmas with the
‘Christ’ taken out and replaced with an ‘X’. It’s
almost as if it’s a nameless celebration. We as
Christians know how far from the truth that is.
We read here of angels appearing to the shep-
herds and declaring the birth of Jesus “Son of
David – who is the Christ (the Messiah)”. It is in
no way a ‘nameless’ event – but a wonderful
celebration of the greatest event – the birth of
Christ, and the reconciliation to God He brought
to us all.
So let’s keep the ‘Christ’ in Christmas.
Christmas must always start with Christ
For He has saved us and changed our lives

Local participating Randolph County
Veterinarians and the Randolph County

clinic will be held during regular busi-
ness hours at the offices of the partici-
pating veterinarians. The cost is only

protect your pet and family is to have your pet vaccinated.
Puppies and kittens should receive their first rabies shot at 4
months, the second at 16 months, and then every three years
thereafter. Please bring your pet’s certificate of previous vacci-
nations so your veterinarian can update this record. If you have
