his sisters
We were a family of six, five sisters
and myself. Because of our father, we
were taken and split up by the
Cuyahoga County Children's Services
on December 14. 1993. Four of my
five sisters were placed in foster care
and\or adopted out. I have names and
birth dates, but have been unable to
locale any of the missing four sisters
They may be in South Carolina. Texas.
Florida or Cleveland, Ohio. They could
possibly be living near Reservations
Our father is Albert Morris Brown
and he will never hurt any of us again
There is no reason to continue to fear
him. My .sisters and their birth dates
are; Caroline Marie Brown Kelly. 214-64;
Tammy Marie Brown Gobble.
3-30-66; Dawn Marie Brown. 10-2.
69; and Cassandra Lynn Brown, born
later in 8-31-74 to Albert Morris
Brown and Brenda Jones. She is my
half sister. I love and miss you all so
very much and haven't stopped
looking for you in the past 24 years.
Our mother gave us so much heritage
and tradition and 1 want to share with
you. You have a brother and many
nieces and nephews who want to hear
from you. There is so much that you
:nccd to know and could not have
known back in the early 70s because
of your young ages.
I hope that anyone having
information about any of my missing
sisters would please contact me. May
the Great Spirit bring my family back!

There's a saying about bad news,
that what you don't know can't hurt
you. That 's just not so w hen it comes
to breast cancer. Breast cancer can be
a very treatable disease when it's
caught early.
Pr[per diagnosis of the disease is of
course critical to appropriate
treatment.
Radiology plays a major role in the
detection ofbrcast cancer. Through a
mammogram, a radiologist can locate
a lump or lesion that is so small it may
not yet be able to be felt through selfexam.
Once a lesion is found, an
ultrasound may be conducted to
confirm whether the suspicious area
is a solid lump or a cyst.
If a lump is determined to be solid
and not cystic, the next step may be to
perform a biopsy. The most common
technique is called an excisional biopsy
in which a surgeon excises the
abnormal area and sends it to a
pathologist to determine if the cells
are malignant or benign.
Since many abnormalities arc not
palpable-capable ofbeing touched or
felt--at the time of surgery, a
radiologist w ill use the mammogram
as a guide to locate the lesion. This
two step procedure is performed with
the patient going from radiology to
surgery . The surgery is performed
under a local or general anesthetic
a biopsy option many women arc
not aware of is a procedure called
stereotactic core biopsy of the breast
During this one step-i>rocedure. the
patient lies on a special table face
dow n w ith the breast accessible to the
radiologist. A small skin incision is
made and a core of tissue is taken from
the lesion with a needle. The
procedure, which takes a maxi mum of
one hour with results back within 24
to 48 hours is relatively painless.
It is important to consult w ith your
physician before choosing to proceed
with a biopsy in order to determine
w hich biopsy option is most beneficial
for your particular needs

I. Giving Kindness and
Gratitude (Ruth 2:1, 8-10)
The lesson this week continues
with Naomi and Ruth who have
returned to Israel. The situation was
tough for the two widows who had
come from Moab. Naomi's husband
had a near kinsman w hose name was
Boaz. He was a man of good character,
rather wealthy, and respected among
people of the village.
The news had spread about Ruth
and her loyalty to Naomi. Ruth panted
to help provide for her and Naomi. It
was harv est time so Ruth inquired of
Naomi if she minded if she went into
the field to glean after the reapers. In
other words, the poor could go in and
pick up the leftovers left by the reapers.
Because of Ruth's love and loyalty to
Naomi, she was willing to give of
herself to provide for her and Naomi.
| It happened that Ruth went to glean
in the fields of Boaz. the kinsman of
Elimelech. When Boaz saw Ruth in
the field her enquired of his men who
was. He was informed that Ruth was
the Moabite woman who had come
with Naomi. Boaz had heart of Ruth
and he told her to stay close by hid
maidens so that she could get the good
gleanings. Also, he instructed the men
servants that they were to leave Ruth
alone and let her glean wherever she
chose. Also he instructed her not to go
into another's field.
Many times in their lives, a person 's
reputation precedes them. Ruth's
reputation was of good report. In the
Book of Proverbs, it says that a good
name is more to be desired than gold.
After Boaz shows his kindness to
Ruth, she bowed on the ground on her
face. She is grateful for the kindness
that Boaz had shown toward her. She
asked why should find grace in Boaz"
s eyes because she was a stranger in a
strange land.
II. Receiving Appreciation
(Ruth 2:11-12)
Boa/'s response was that for all
that Ruth had done for Naomi, he was
showing his appreciation. Not only
that, she hadlbrsaken her own family
and native land for a people that she
didn't know. Boaz could easily provide
so much reward for the kindness that
she had shown to Naomi. He told here
that perhaps the God of Israel who she
had put her trust in would reward her
to the fullest for what she had done.
Ruth gave not expecting anything in
return. When one gives unselfishly,
they will receive much.
III. Building a Heritage
(Ruth 4:13-17)
Under Jewish custom if a woman's
husband died, a brother could marry
her and preserve the inheritance and
the name of the deceased brother.
Boaz being the nearest Kinsman of
Elimelech that would marry Ruth, he
becomes whai thev called ihe
kinsman's redeemer He fell in lo\c
with her and married her and the Lord
blessed her with a child
Naonu was left in her old age with
an heir and inheritance the women
around her were happy for her They
said that the son Ruth had would be a
comfort to her in her old age She took
care of her grandson and the neighbors
called his name Obed. He became the
grandfather of the greatest king in the
nation of Israel. David God had a
plan for Ruth, a gentile, who was
willing to forsake her ancestry and
gods to serv e the true and living God
She would play a part in the lineage of
Jesus Christ, our Kinsman. Redeemer
This lesson is a beautiful picture of
how Jesus redeemed us from sin and
reconciled us back to God. We were
lost and undone without hope and had
nothing to ofierthe Lord but ourselv es.
Just as Ruth found grace in the eyes of
Boaz. so we found grace in the Lord
Jesus Christ.
Unsaved person. Jesus wants to
redeem you from your sins. Accept
His forgiveness for your sins today
God bless you until next week
