Choice Hills’ Pastor Stan Craig Weds Beverly Freeney

- By Barbara Wilson
May 15, 2010, was a pleasant, warm Saturday. We drove toward Choice Hills Baptist Church to attend Pastor Craig’s wedding, and along the way we listened to his Trumpet Pulpit segment on WTBI radio. Bro. Stan Craig was happily preaching “live” from his church office! It was 12:30pm, and getting closer to the start of his own wedding ceremony! Being so near to the starting time, it made us both chuckle! You could just imagine Brother Craig’s big smile! He said, “In just 30 minutes, I’m going to be married! Everyone is invited to come!”

Supreme Court to decide fate of Veterans' Cross in Mojave Desert
WASHINGTON, Christian Newswire -- The U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments in Salazar vs. Buono, better known as the Mojave Desert Cross case. World War I veterans erected a cross 75 years ago on land that was open range to honor those who had died serving America in the war. In 1994, the Clinton Administration federalized the land. The ACLU sued to remove the cross, which is literally in a desert and difficult to find, on behalf of a former National Park Service worker who lives in Oregon.
