Today marks a momentous event in West Plains. At 5 p.m., Toney Aid will take down the flag out in front of Aid Downtown Antiques, formerly Aid Hardware, for the very last time. For 5 generations an Aid has owned and operated a business at 1 Court Square. Aid has a photo of his grandfather taking down the flag on the last day of business for the hardware store in the 1990s. It is a bittersweet day for everyone who knows and loves the Aids, but as one door closes, another one opens. In retirement, Toney can finally focus all of his energy on the book project he has spent nearly half of his life working on. The community of West Plains owes a debt of gratitude to the Aid Family that can never be repaid. Their tireless, often thankless, efforts to preserve and restore the historical sites of our beloved downtown has been a lifetime of work. In the heart of West Plains, a town that clings to its history like autumn leaves to a tree, there stands a testament to the enduring spirit of a family business. Welcome to Aid Downtown Antiques, where stepping through the doors is akin to stepping into a living legacy, a tribute to resilience, innovation, and community impact. more

Until recently, I knew little about the Korean Conflict except that the US entered the fight in 1950 to stop the spread of communism. I did not re-alize that while the Korean War lasted just over three years, it took the lives of millions of North and South Koreans and that UN forces also suffered 100,000 casualties. more
Luke 14:26 You cannot be my disciple, unless you love me more than you love your father and mother, your wife and children, and your brothers and sisters. You cannot follow me unless you love me more than you love your own life. more
The Apostle Paul wrote, “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!” (Philippians 4:4) In Nehemiah 8:10 we read, “The joy of the Lord is your strength.” With the troubles we face in today’s world, we may be tempted to think these words of scripture are out of date, meant for another time in the distant past. And yet, they are meant for us today. The dictionary says joy is a feeling of happiness, an emotion evoked by well-being, success, or good fortune. The Bible tells us that it is more. This fruit of the Spirit is evidence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. It is a response to the ways God intervenes in our lives to help us, to save us, to love us. Life can be hard, even brutal, but we have a Savior, and no matter what happens we have confidence that “nothing in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 15:35) This good news of great joy is why we rejoice. May God bless your week with joy! Diane Cooke, Pastor, Presbyterian Churches, Willow Springs and Mtn. View more
