I know I have mentioned the 2020 Census in several
of my columns. We are continuing to spread the word
because the stakes are so high. Accurate census
reporting will have direct impact on our city and our
community. Census results determine how many U.S.
House of Representatives represent our state, and the
distribution of more than $700 billion in federal funds.
Make sure you are counted!
As you know, the Census takes place only every ten
years, and the process is a lot easier and faster than it
was in the past. You only have to answer 10 simple
questions and it takes only 6 minutes to complete.
March 2020. You can complete your Census report
online. Go to: 2020census.gov.
April 2020 . April 1, 2020 Observance of Census Day.
June – July 2020 . Census takers begin door-to-door
contact for those who have not responded.
NOTE: Census takers are employees of the Census
Bureau. They will provide proof that they are official
government personnel.
December 31 . The Bureau reports to the President
the population count and the apportionment of seats in
the U.S. House of Representatives for each state.
Please make sure you and your family are counted!
Be a Fountain, Not a Drain.
HIS PROMISES
As we face these uncertain times,
He can, and will restore our soul,
For He has promised to never leave us
and will continue to make us whole.
So we will look to Him for comfort
knowing He will hear our cry.
He knows the way to reach us.
His Grace we can never deny.
Oh, what wondrous love He has
for those He calls to come,
And when we hasten to Him
He helps us to overcome...
Nothing is beyond His help,
we can ask Him anything
So today go forth with a joyful heart
and to His promises cling!

"The LORD is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him, and I am helped.
My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks
to him in song." Psalms 28:7
Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow;
it empties today of its strength.
