Holiday spirit Dear Editor, Last November, families, churches, individuals and groups in Warren County donated gift-filled shoeboxes to Operation Christmas Child, a project of international Christian relief and evangelism organization Samaritan’s Purse. These simple gifts, messages of hope, let children around the world know they are loved and not forgotten. For many, these will be the first gifts they have ever received. The numbers are now in and over 18,240 gifts were sent from Warren, Crawford and Erie counties, including 2595 dropped off at Pleasant Community Church. This ...

Dropping calls Dear Editor, I was very happy to hear we have some progressive township supervisors, poorly paid my I add, willing to form a partnership with a nonprofit to find a solution to the problem of residents with no access to high speed internet. If you do a search of the Times Observer you can find dozens of articles covering what paid County Commissioners were doing to bring Broadband to the county. We have been told they were holding $7.5 million dollars of the Counties American Rescue Plan allocation to match broadband state and fed grants. In 2021, they turned down a ...

Values and religion Dear Editor, A few weeks ago I wrote a letter about immigration and the Bible. I received many comments, mostly “Are you advocating for open borders because of Old Testament Law?” My reply was: “Read it again.” Perhaps some did.

It points out the danger in picking and choosing verses or words from any Holy Book to justify policies and political actions. And that is just what I hoped my words had conveyed. A rebuttal ...

Taking sides Dear Editor, I am writing to you all in hope it is not another meaningless dead end go nowhere commentary on the endless political division in our country. Here it is: We have both sides of the aisle in government at local, state, and national levels. We have division in our daily lives in our conversations with friends and neighbors also, why? How did the gap between opposing ideologies get so far apart that we cannot find common ground to solve a problem of any significance anymore? The left wing progressive haters attempted to stop at nothing to keep Trump ...

Last gaffes Dear Editor, Joe Biden offended some Americans in several ways prior to leaving office. Here are several. He awarded a Medal of Honor to George Soros. Soros is a left-wing billionaire who has contributed to the campaigns of “soft on crime” prosecutors and district attorneys such as George Gascon (Los Angeles), Kim Foxx (Chicago) and Alvin Bragg (New York); the latter was the prosecutor in the sham trial against President Trump. A medal was also awarded to Hillary Clinton. As Secretary of State,she used personal devices for government business, clearly breaking ...

Schooling options Dear Editor, The Warren County School District has failed to maintain a structured learning environment, which is not a new issue. I was a Youngsville student 14 years ago. Every year I attended, they changed the setup of the Middle/High School. I left in 10th grade and graduated from PA Cyber Charter School. I went on to graduate from college with honors, and I now substitute teach while finishing my second degree. The Warren County Christian School offers K-12 education to our community. I encourage parents in the county to explore what the private school ...
