May those killed find their final rest with God.  May He comfort the friends and families of those taken and bring healing to those hurt both emotionally and physically. Praying in the precious name of Jesus, Amen.

3 Simple Tricks to Help You to a Healthier 4th!

1) Lots of yummy things at the BBQ? Use a small plate to load up. Research says folks who choose smaller plates eat less without even noticing. Calorie consumption of those tested was up to 50% less, but they still felt full. 2) Now that your plate is full of all those yummy things, eat the fruits and veggies first. You'll make sure and get the healthy stuff in and you'll have less of a chance of over-eating the junk! 3) Still have room for dessert? You don't have to deprive yourself of sweets, indulge--but split your treat with someone else! Want more? You can check out other healthy ideas on this website summertomato.com
