What's New

Condolences to the family of

William E. (Bill) Taylor,

of Murray, who passed away on Thursday, November 21, 2013.

Bill is survived by his wife: Linda Taylor of Murray, NE; children: Michelle (Todd) Sievers of Lincoln, NE; Billie Taylor of Omaha, NE; Brett (Cheri) of Glenwood, IA; 7 Grandchildren: Jeremiah, Jacob and Austin Sievers; Dakota & Conner Taylor; Brooklyn & Brody Taylor.

It's too bad that only one month out of the entire year is considered the 'giving season'. Most people start worrying about what they'll give as gifts and if they can afford to give anything at all.

Some of the most wonderful gifts are those that do not cost a penny, so who can't afford that?

For the next 5 weeks, we'll list here some 'gifts' that anyone can give. You don't even have to wait for a holiday or special occasion to give these gifts and you'll be giving yourself the gift of giving!

Week #1, Nov. 20,  was: THE GIFT of a COMPLIMENT.

This week's gift is THE GIFT of AFFECTION.

Appropriate hugs, kisses, a pat on the back and reaching for someone's hand can demonstrate your care, love and support for family and friends at a time when they might most need it.  Be generous!

RECYCLE!

'Best Christmas Pageant Ever'

Coming to the Lofte!

The Lofte Community Theatre in Manley announces that the beloved children's story, 'The Best Christmas Pageant Ever," will open on the main stage on Saturday, November 30.

Based upon the book written by Barbara Robinson, this is the story of the six rough-and-tumble Herdman kids who bully their way into the annual Sunday School Nativity play. The church ladies, the Reverand and even the volunteer fire department are sure this will be the worst Christmas pageant ever, but the Sunday School teacher remains stubbornly optimistic. The production is filled with youthful energy and a the true spirit of Christmas.

The production is directed by Kevin Colbert. Starring as the pageant director and her husband are Anne Pope and Scott Nielsen of Eagle. Their children, Charlie and Beth help to narrate the story, and are played by real-life brother and sister Noah and Tess Arent of Murdock. The Herdmans are played by Mia Thomas of Bellevue, Samuel Gauthier and Adeline Morgenson of Louisville, Talon Flodman and Gus Pope of Eagle and Xander Monson of Brock. In all, there are fifty-six people in the play. Forty-four of them are children!

The production will run November 30, December 1, 6-8 and 12-15. Curtain times are at 7:30pm except for Sundays which are 2pm matinees. Tickets are $17 for adults and only $10 for children under 12. For reservations, please call the Lofte box office at 402.234.2553.
