To the Editor:   Within the next few years our communities will lay to rest the last of our WWII Veterans, with regret but also wishing them well in their new life.  This Memorial Day is an opportunity to pay particular attention to their stories, which used to be told in person by those who were...

To the Editor:   Why are so many young men and women leaving the Amish lifestyle in our community? (Shunning and bundling commonly referred to as bed dating.) After a church service, I was introduced to a young man by the name of Jesse, who along with his wife and family were shunned, asking other...
To the Editor:   I am really mad and I am going to tell you why.  The story is both political and personal, but mostly personal.  It involves some bad actors in the Minnesota Senate and the way their recent behavior undermined my faith in the essential integrity of the political process.

To the Editor:   Are Senators Jim Abeler, Carla Nelson, and Jerry Relph along with House members Nels Pierson and Tama Theis trying to buy votes with an $18 million Somali Pilot Grant Program?  United States taxpayers already spend $110 billion annually on refugees according to Judicial Watch....
To the Editor:   Do you remember where you were when some life changing, historical and important event happened? Things like: man landing on the moon, the assassination of John F.
