LETTER TO THE EDITOR

I have questions on who is responsible for the infrastructure if the new school is built. Who is responsible for water and sewer? Who is responsible for streets? Will the school land be annexed to the city? Will the tree and grass disposal yard be moved? Paul Eisenmenger

MURPHY'S LAW

Dear Claire and Alek, I know Father’s Day is Sunday, and it’s supposed to be a day when kids say thanks to their dads for all they do throughout the year.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

When we look around and see what is happening in our country, in our states, in our communities, in our schools and even in our churches, it is no wonder that the main goal is the DESTRUCTION OF FAITH. Following is an opinion I submitted to the Omaha World-Herald: We have a beautiful rural church where our grandparents, parents, children, etc. received all the sacraments. Our church and members seem to be insignificant to the Omaha Archdiocese. There is nothing more important or precious than family unity. When the bond of that family unity is broken, it is devastating. In my opinion, this is exactly what is happening in the Archdiocese. Their article referring to “creating families” is a joke. I believe they are severing parish families and destroying faith. It seems the only thing that matters to this over-controlling hierarchy is money, power and big city life. We were informed that we have to upkeep our church when our doors are closed. Hey, Omaha, we’ve been upkeeping our church for 100+ years. With all the lawsuits the Archdiocese is facing, it does make sense they are scrambling for as much money as they can get.
