"CRISIS IN DARFUR: What Is Our Responsibility
Ruth Messinger, Director of the American Jewish World Service (AJWS), will give a firsthand account of the ongoing genocidal campaign in Darfur, Sudan that has been raging since 2003. Reflecting on her own visits in August 2004, October 2005 and July 2007, Ruth will describe what must be done to stop these atrocities that have claimed more than 450,000 lives. If it wasn’t for Ruth Messinger, the issue of Darfur would not be on the agenda of the international human rights community.

Relay For Life Paint The Town Purple Rally
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life (RFL) McKinney will paint McKinney purple with a rally on March 29 at 11:30 a.m. on the north steps of the McKinney Performing Arts Center, 111 N. Tennessee Street, in Historic Downtown McKinney. The rally is free and open to the public, and attendees are encouraged to wear purple.
“Purple is the official color of Relay For Life, and through Relay, you experience something called ‘The Power of Purple,’” said RFL McKinney Co-Chair Sharon Laird. “You see lives changed when you invite others to join Relay for the first time, know the sense of victory when someone who has battled cancer walks their first Survivor Lap and never forget the emotion of placing a luminaria bag for someone you love.”
Through the Paint The Town Purple rally, RFL McKinney hopes to communicate ‘the power of purple’ to area residents and kick off April as Relay For Life Month in McKinney.

Yoga reduces stress by learning relaxation and breathing techniques.

The Runner Stumbles by Milan Stitt
Father Rivard is on trial for murder of a nun. He doubts his faith, his God, his very sanity, but never his innocence. Milan Stitt's 1975 potboiler based on a true murder at the turn of the last century follows the trial and the turmoil of forbidden love, blind doctrine and abandoned hope. A Catholic priest and nun fall in love tearing their world apart. The two disappear, years pass and the priest is arrested and returned to stand trial for the nun's murder. | Cox Building Playhouse

The Runner Stumbles by Milan Stitt
Father Rivard is on trial for murder of a nun. He doubts his faith, his God, his very sanity, but never his innocence. Milan Stitt's 1975 potboiler based on a true murder at the turn of the last century follows the trial and the turmoil of forbidden love, blind doctrine and abandoned hope. A Catholic priest and nun fall in love tearing their world apart. The two disappear, years pass and the priest is arrested and returned to stand trial for the nun's murder. | Cox Building Playhouse

Yoga for Healthy Knees Workshop
Do you have chronic pain in your knees? Do they “snap, crackle, and pop” like a bowl of rice-krispies when you bend or extend them? Or do your knees hyperextend?
You may have improper tracking or “dislocation” of your kneecap. Constant wear and tear of your cartilage underneath the patella bone can not only grind down the cartilage, but it can eliminate the opportunity for new cartilage to form and repair due to the improper alignment.
Join Lisa Marshall, E.R.Y.T., and Jennifer Martin, R.P.T. at Surya Center for Yoga, for this valuable workshop. You will learn Yoga poses to stretch, and strengthen the two Quad muscles, the vastus medialis, and the vastus lateralis…two that play the most important role in proper knee alignment. You will learn how to correct your own alignment in your Yoga classes and your everyday life to build and maintain healthy knees.
*Cost is $25.00, which includes take home material. Register on line @ www.Suryacenteryoga.com or call 972-304-8484. | Surya Center for Yoga

3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, |
