Christmas Messages From Church Leaders
Victory Baptist Church
The Malad Idaho LDS Stake
“It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” as a favorite Christmas song proclaims! All around us are symbols of the season: Christmas trees decorated to perfection, lights inside and out, nativity scenes portraying the birth of the Christ Child and beautifully wrapped presents under the tree. Our hearts are a little softer and our desires to serve others more pronounced. We make time in our busy lives to remember the Lord Jesus Christ and bear testimony of His miraculous birth and life.
Christmas is the season when we celebrate the greatest gift ever given. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son” (John 3:16). The prophet Isaiah spoke of the Savior’s birth, “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6). Then came that night of nights when the shep-
herds were abiding in the fields and the angel of the Lord appeared to them announcing, “Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy. . .For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord” (Luke 2:10). The shepherds, with haste, went to the manger to pay honor to Christ the Lord. Later, wise men journeyed from the East to Jerusalem, saying: “Where is he that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east and are come to wor-
Pastor Jack Harwell We are celebrating Christmas, the time over 2000 years ago when a savior was born. He came to be our Salvation and we needed Him. He came to live a life and keep the Law of God when we could not. He was the only one who could do what was needed to be done so we could have Salva-
tion. After living a life to fulfill the Law of God he laid down His life, it was not taken from Him. He died to pay the debt we owe to God. He died to give us a chance to have God’s Salvation. In John, Chapter three, it tells us that God so loved the world He gve us his only begotten Son, and if we believe in Him we will have eter-
nal life with Him. That belief is that Jesus was God come in the flesh and that we are sinners and we need Him. We need to see that—that He is the only way and that we can’t live good enough and expect Him
ship him. . . And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother and fell down and worshipped Him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh" (Matthew 2:2,11). What gifts will you and I give to Him this year? Elder Neal A. Maxwell, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, once observed that “each of us is an innkeeper who decides if there is room for Jesus!”
President Russell M. Nelson, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, pleaded with us “to counter the lure of the world by making time for the Lord in your life—each and every day.” The angels and heavenly hosts made time to sing and proclaim His birth. The Shepherds made time for Jesus by leaving their flocks in search of Him. And the wise men traveled a great distance to worship the babe in Bethlehem. All were busy. All had other responsi-
bilities and demands on their time. The call to go to the manger was not convenient. Yet each one, in his or her own way, made time for Jesus and were changed forever. Another disciple changed forever by the Master was Simon Peter. After His resurrection, Jesus met with his Apostles. They ate together and as He prepared to depart, “Jesus saith to Simon Peter, .

Oneida County Ambulance A Vital Part of Community and the Season Last week, the Oneida County Ambulance EMT crew conducted the extrication of a trapped motorist after a rollover on the I-15, just outside of Exit 13. While an extrication is somewhat uncommon, it is certainly not an unfamiliar task for the members of the ambulance team, who respond to all kinds of incidents in town and on the local roadways. EMTs (Emergency Medical Technicians) are the first line of response for emergency incidents that occur throughout the valley and surrounding areas. Trissa Nesbit started taking EMT classes in 2016, and progressed through the Advanced EMT program to the point where she is now teaching an Advanced
course herself. She also works for the Oneida County Ambulance. Having always wanted to work in emergency medicine, she took the opportunity to do exactly that when she moved back to Malad from South Dakota a few years ago. Given its relatively small population, one might expect that many of the calls are fairly routine. And indeed, that is often true. “A lot of our runs are taking people from our hospital to a higher level of care at different hospitals,” Trissa says. Many of these cases have underlying conditions that are quite serious, and require transport to facilities with more specialized staff for intervention. “We do those

transports and then we also get a lot of calls for sick people needing to be taken to the hospital, home accidents and numerous car accidents/ rollovers.” Medical
calls are fairly constant during the week, and given the busy status of the I-15, traffic incidents are also a regular feature of the job, especially during weather events.
While Oneida County’s ambulance doesn’t have any paramedics, Nesbit explains that “We have EMR (Emergency Medical Responder), EMT (Emergency
Medical Technician) and AEMT (Advanced Emergency Medical CHRISTMAS MESSAGES MALAD LDS On Page 4

Christmas Messages From Church Leaders A Christmas Message from the First Presbyterian Church Marlys Evans When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, the world was not the way God intended it. Into this moral and spiritual darkness Jesus came, bringing life and light to all (John 1:4). Even though the world didn’t recognize Him, “to all who did receive Him, to those who believe in His name, He gave the right to become the children of God” (John 1:2). Reverend Martin Neimoller, a German pastor, spent nearly eight years in Nazi concentration camps because he openly opposed Hitler. On Christmas Eve 1944, Neimoller spoke these words of hope to his fellow prisoners in Dachau: “My dear friends, on this Christmas, let us seek, in the Babe of Bethle-
hem, the One who came to us in order to bear with us everything that weighs heavily upon us; God himself has built a bridge from himself to us! A dawn from on high has visited us!” At Christmas we embrace the good news that God, in Christ, has bridged the gap between us. He invades our prison of darkness with His light and lifts the load of sorrow, guilt, or loneliness that weighs us down. The prophet Isaiah prophetically said, “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of darkness a light has dawned” (Isaiah 9:2). This light that Isaiah spoke of was not for a few people, but for all. “For God so loved the world that he

to do the rest. He paid the whole price and has done everything needed to give us Salvation. For us to think we can do any thing in ourselves is a sin all of its own. The Bible tells use there is no other name given under heaven we can call on to help us save ourselves. We have to born again into a new person where He lives in us. Just like when we see someone that has a demon living in them, the things they do are so wrong and horrible that it is clear whom they serve. The opposite is when Jesus lives in us we can do things to give glory unto God, things that are right and good. That is the reason He saves us and the reason He came. When Jesus came before to change the world, He did just that. The times we live in today are such that we need Jesus to lead us. We need to wake up and look around at what is going on. Do you think things are going real good, or do you think things are
real bad? Can you see how bad things are getting due to how we have left God out of all we do? Jesus said that He was going to prepare us a place for those who believe, and he would come again and get us. That place is in Heaven where He is, and the Bible tells us how bad it will get before he comes again to Judge the world! The world we live in today is in danger of God’s Judgement, and if He chooses to come back there will be a lot of people who wish they had not done the things they have, but it will be too late. The place that God prepared for the devil and his angels will not be a place people can get out of— they will spend all of eternity with pain like no other. God’s world tells us it is a place where the worm never dies and the fire never stops tormenting those who will be in it. God’s Judgement will be fair if we choose to reject what God did for us on the Cross with his Son. God has given us a way to be right with Him, and if we won’t
gave His one and only Son” (John 3:16). World news bombards us from the Internet, television, radio, and mobile devices. The majority seems to describe what’s wrong—crime, terrorism, war and economic problems. But on that first Christmas the best news, the good news came from an angel, sent by God to shepherds, “Do not be afraid, I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all people” (Luke 2:10-11). The very best news ever spoken—Christ the Savior is born! When life is not the way it ought to be we are deeply saddened: when families break up, when children go hungry and the world wages war, God promises us that
take it then that is on us, not on Him. God has given us a way to serve Him for His Glory is we accept it. So as we celebrate Christmas, remember it is the celebration of God sending His Son and our Salvation. Christmas is about the Gift God has given, not what we get for other people. Christmas is about caring for the well-being of others, not ourselves. But if you think it is about how much you get, the question is: how much more than Jesus do you need? I hope as you read this you might think about what you want in your life. How do you want your life to end, in Heaven or Hell? It is your choice, so if you choose wrong it is on you and no one else. I hope and Pray you will make the right choice. I also pray that if you would like to talk to me about this, I will take the time to meet with you and explain it. I am the pastor if the Victory Baptist Church at 448 South Main. Merry Christmas!
through faith in Christ anyone can move in a new direction. So, matter where today finds us, Jesus has penetrated our dark world with his joy and light! In this season of giving, the most important gift we can ever receive is God’s gift of His Son, our Savior,
and with him forgiveness, restoration, and the promise of spiritual life that begins now and lasts forever. And the most important gift we can ever give is to give Jesus our hearts. The Christmas season reminds us that Jesus, the Savior, gives life and
light to everyone who will receive and follow Him (John 8:12). This Christmas, why not share the good news with other the Christ, “the light of the world” has come (John 8:12).
Christmas Message St. Paul Mission Art Martinez During this advent season as we await the coming of our Savior Jesus Christ, it is a time of reflection as well as a time of suspense for the coming of our Savior. Reflection back on the things that have occurred this past year which have brought us all together as commu-
nity. Those opportunities that we have had to show God that we love him by showing our love and caring for our fellow man. Our 9/11 projects were great examples of that. Simply doing good for our community. Now we await the coming of our Savior. Let us all commit to welcoming him back into our
lives by continuing to serve him by serving one another. After all, the best gift that we could ever give our Savior is to do as he asked us to do. “Love one another as I have loved you.” St. Paul Mission wishes each and everyone a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year.

. .lovest thou me more than these?” Peter gave a brief heartfelt response and the Lord again asked, “Simon . . .lovest thou me me?” Peter answered again, “Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee.” But without a pause, Jesus asked again the third time, “Simon, lovest thou me?” Peter, “saith unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.” (John
21:15-17) Peter left that sacred encounter with the Savior sure in the knowledge that loving Jesus means making time to love and serve others. In this regard, love is spelled T-I-M-E. At this sacred season and throughout the year, make time for Jesus. Make room for Him in your hearts and homes. Make time to read His word in the holy scriptures. Make time to pray daily with greater faith. Make time to love and serve others. Make time to live His gospel. Make time to find joy in the
journey of life. We testify that the babe born in Bethlehem is the very Son of God. He is the Savior and Redeemer of the world. He died on Calvary’s hill and rose from the tomb the third day. Jesus Christ “went about doing good” (Acts 10:38). As we do likewise, the true meaning of Christmas will fill our hearts, homes, and community. May we all make room for Jesus and be changed forever. Merry Christmas, The Malad Idaho Stake Presidency

Oneida County Ambulance A Vital Part of Community and the Season Continued from front page
Technician)”, all of whom provide life-saving interventions on the scene, and during transport to local and regional medical facilities. “There are many things that people don’t realize about us,” Nesbit continues. “Most of us love what we do and love to help people in their time of need. I don’t think a lot of people realize that after we help them, we think about them a lot and hope they are doing better or recovering. Sometimes we get to know that outcome after we take them to the hospital, and sometimes we don’t. We always wonder after our calls.” The Oneida County Ambulance is staffed primarily by people who volunteer their time and skills for the benefit of the community. “I don’t think people realize that we are a volunteer organization. We sign up to help cover shifts and then need to be in the county and available at a moment’s notice if our radios go off. We can’t just up and leave town if we are on call without
getting someone to cover for us. We usually have three technicians on every shift and at least one of them needs to be an Advanced. Our shifts are 12 hour shifts and run from 6am-6pm and then 6pm-6am. Some of us take four shifts a month and some of us are able to cover upwards of 20 shifts per month,” Nesbit says. The job itself can come with a high level of stress and responsibility, but the trade-off comes in the form of satisfaction for being able to provide a critical and invaluable service to people in need. “Every one of our EMTs has a passion for doing this. We love helping people and we love the medicine aspect of it,” Nesbit says. The emergency care positions also involve more than the active day-to-day work. Ongoing education is also a necessity for the job. “We all are required to take continuing education to keep up on all the changes happening all the time. We also as a group will have monthly training meetings where we meet together and review procedures or
learn new policies. To be an EMT, you have to be state certified, but you can also go as far as to be nationally certified which is what about 90 % of our team is,” she says. Nesbit also provided some thoughts on the recent extrication, which resulted in freeing the accident victim Kayli Householder from the wreck, and allowing her to be transported to an emergency care facility at Nell J Redfield and then to Pocatello. “Extrication is very tricky,” she said. “There are so many things that we have to think about when attempting to remove a patient from a vehicle. The first is safety of our own extrication team and EMTs. If we are hurt, we can’t help the patient. When attempting to extricate patients, we have to be on our guard and pay close attention to how the car is sitting, what it is on (like slippery snow, side hill, electrical lines) and what is around it. Numerous times the patient is hurting inside the car and so we have to work smart and fast to be able to get to them. Some
patients are not fully in or out of the car and this also makes it difficult. If we need to break any glass, we have to cover the patient so that none of the broken glass will fall on them. Sometimes we have to lift the car up to have access to the patient, this can be difficult if the car wants to slide every time we inch the car up (which is what was happening on this particular accident). Other times we have had EMTs actually climb into the vehicle to address life threatening wounds while extrication is working to provide a way to get the patient safely out.” As with this recent incident, weather can play havoc on people’s normal driving routine. Winter, of course, is typically the time of year most likely to result in road accidents. “Winter driving can always be scary,” Nesbit said. “The worst is the black ice, which we cannot see. This causes numerous accidents. We ask that people drive slow and pay attention to their surroundings. Most of our rollovers occur on the
summit between mile marker 20 and 24. We have nicknamed this the ‘Malad Triangle’ because of all the accidents that are there. Please drive extra safe in that area. Also, it is very important to wear your seat belt. When we respond to a rollover, if the patient was wearing their seat belt, most of the time they walk away with hardly any injuries. Those not wearing their seat belt have numerous injuries and are almost always taken to the hospital to be treated. Seat belts save lives, so please wear them.” The ambulance workers are always on call to respond to incidents that happen on and off the freeway, and without them the survivability of accidents would be considerably reduced. But the workers themselves are also exposed during their responses, and Nesbit reminds drivers that “Something that would really help us out, would be when we are on the freeway working on a patient, please slow down when passing us. It is very scary for us when we are focusing on our patient
LOOKING BACK 5 YEARS AGO (2016) Malad Elementary fifth, third, and first grade students helped to bring some holiday cheer as they presented “An Old-Fashioned Christmas.” The annual Christmas program was held on Tuesday, December 13, at Malad Elementary. The program was under the direction of Malad Elementary Music Director Christine Smith. The auditorium decorations were created by Amanda Skeen, Mary Ann Daniels, Charlene Rose, Heather Howe, Angie Thompson, and Chris Jensen. The auditorium was made ready for the performance by Darrell Tripp. Choreography for “An Old-Fashioned Christmas,” was created by Pat Sorensen. Light/Sounds were under the direction of Jean Schwartz. Santa was portrayed by Gene Caldwell. Programs were created by Rebecca Firth. Teachers working with the students were Jean Schwartz, Cinniman Schwartz, Kallie Blaisdell, Anne Crowther, Brent Grote, Tiffanie Patton, Leisa Lamb, Tiffany Jones, Apral Ipsen and JaLyn Weeks. Principal is Robert Hannah The Malad Valley Community Chorus welcomed the Christmas season into Oneida County on Sunday night when they presented their annual Christmas concert, “Welcome!

presented. Under the direction of Ralph Bennett and with accompanist Helen Ward, the chorus performed songs that described the sights and sounds of Christmas. With the lively, upbeat “Welcome! Welcome!” as the opening number, the chorus moved on to other spirited songs, “The Lights of December”, “Sleigh Ride” and “Go Tell It On The Mountain”. Again, following Malad tradition, the “Hallelujah Chorus” was sung with former chorus members invited to join with the choir for this impressive rendition. The second half of the concert centered on the birth of the Savior, and included a medley of some favorite Christmas carols in a song entitled “Gloria in Excelsis Deo”. Jeff Richins sang a baritone solo of “O Holy Night” during this number. 10 YEARS AGO (2011) In celebration of Christmas Eve, the Presbyterian Church will hold a special Candlelight Service for the community in the Malad Presbyterian Church on December 24. At a ceremony held on December 14, Sidney Dirilo graduated from Oneida High School. Sidney was encouraged by Principal Sorensen to have an outlook like Steve Jobs: to face challenges, overcome them, and reach her dreams. Oneida School Board Chairman Lisa Willie presented her OHS diploma.

Students participating in the recital were Hayley Brown, Meaghan Brown, Halee Haycock, Clayton Howard, Kristle Jensen, Natalie Jensen, Conner McClain, Sierra McClain, Maddie Ogden, Paige Ogden, Hailee Ward and Jace Ward. 15 YEARS AGO (2006) Doug Crowther was named “2006 Fireman of the Year” during the Malad Volunteer Firemen’s annual banquet. Retiring from the department are three longtime firemen, Red Monte Thomas, 30 years; Dennis Thomas, 23 years, and Reed Facer, 18 years. Leroy and Donna Rose have been awarded first place in the 2006 Malad Chamber of Commerce Lighting Contest. Second place goes to Rod and Gloria Tubbs, and Bonnie Davis is the winner of third place. This year’s top commercial winner are Ed and Wendy Jones at ET Kustom Sales. After serving nine years on the Farm Service Agency County Committee, Brent Howard has retired. Kim Jenkins County Executive Director, said, “Brent has been a great asset, not only to
the producers in Oneida County but also to the Farm Service Agency, and he will be missed.” Malad High School’s FFA program had five students earn their first awards in their FFA careers. Riker Carter, Shanlynn Briggs, Bodie Booth, Tallen Boyer and Josh Finder were presented with their Greenhand Degrees. The eighth grade Lady Knights finished their season winning three of their final five games.

and then almost get run over by someone who is driving past us at excessive speeds. Please pay attention and make it easier for us to help the people that need it without worrying.” It’s also true that for many incidents in town and elsewhere the quicker the response is, the more likely it is to have a positive outcome. One of the things Trissa says that can help is to have a higher level of first aid training among the general public. “Also, having more people in our community that are CPR certified [would help],” she says. “It helps us tremendously when we get on scene and high quality CPR has already been started. Our ambulance unit teaches classes and would love to teach more people so we can all work together to save lives.” During this time of year—when both the number of travelers and the dangerous conditions on the road are at their peaks—it is especially important to be mindful and safety minded when using the roads.

Oneida Quilters Club Report December 2021
By Audrey Jaussi Bonnie Howard welcomed everyone, and then we got right into our Show n Tell before our Christmas party activities. Jean Lucht showed us how a quilt can be made from a “Layer Cake” stack. Cindy Gevas made a nice Christmas black and red quilt. There were candy canes and holly on the fabric. Brenda Daniels showed us a beautiful Christmas table runner. She had attended a quilting class and learned how to do “free motion” quilting, thus she did a great job on that table runner. She also showed us a beautiful quilt made from the “Block of the Month” pattern she learned last year! This gal accomplishes so much each month. She demonstrated how to use all those small scrappy pieces into something gorgeous. Danece Hess helped the children at school make four quilts to give away for Christmas. The

children had a wonderful time tying those quilts! Audrey Jaussi spent a busy month completing five quilts! Cindy Gevas quilted them on her long arm machine. Quilts are ready for gifts! Patti Walczykowski made a Christmas small quilt called “Jagged X’s” from 2 1/2” squares. It is such a cute quilt that she is going to demonstrate directions to everyone during the new year. We had a nice pot luck after a few games. We welcome everyone to come and join the quilt guild if they would like to. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

OBITUARIES
Talen Myrle Vaughn September 21, 2006 - December 9, 2021
Talen Myrle Vaughn, 15, our perfect angel boy, returned to the arms of his Heavenly Father on Thursday, December 9, 2021, after a weeklong fight against pneumonia. We cannot express how much his angelic spirit will be dearly missed, but we find much comfort knowing that he is surrounded by family members who have passed before him. Talen was born on September 21, 2006, in St. George, Utah to Jay & Shelly Vaughn. He was welcomed home by his loving big sister Kennedy. Talen was a sweet, smiling baby who captured the Talen Myrle Vaughn hearts of everyone he met. We soon discovered that Talen would be unlike any their sincere appreciation for the many other typical child. His first year of life angels that have been involved in Talen’s was spent doing test after test to figure care. He had the best school teachers, out why he could not hit the milestones aides, pediatrician, dentist, neurologists, like his peers.

8TH GRADE GBB
The undefeated 8th grade girls team with their trophy
The 8th Grade Lady Knights completed the perfect season. They finished with an undefeated record of 14-0 and were crowned District Champions! The Knights entered the District Tournament as the #1 seed. They earned a bye the first round were able to beat West Side handily 43-16. Everyone scored. Scoring: Braylin 8,Bella 6,Brynnlee 5, Izzy 4, Kiley 4, Aubrey 4, Olivia 3, Bayli 3, Mikell 2, Nicole 2, Adi 2 The Championship was Malad vs Soda Springs. The Cardinals came out swinging. They were aggressive and pressed the whole game. The first half we could feel the pressure and Soda led 1014. Coach Jones must of had a better halftime speech than his pre-game speech because the girls returned to the court with a different level of intensity. The Knights brushed themselves off got up again and went on a 22-6 3rd QT run and never looked back. They went on to be crowned District Champions with a 4330 victory. Scoring: Kiley 10, Mikell 9, Olivia 9, Brynnlee 8, Izzy 5, Bella 2 A year ago our girls were C Y

the ones sitting in the locker room with the tears rolling and our heads in our hands. The 8th grade girls stepped onto the court for the last time with a Knights jersey on and looked just as determined for the Championship as when they started the year. You can just see the girls have put a lot of time into basketball in the off-season and it really paid off. To say this team worked hard for this would be an understatement. This team had a goal this year. Only they will ever know the countless hours at camps, open gyms, tournaments, pickup games, leagues and shooting on their own time they worked hard earning it. Every time I would think, “that’s a lot to ask of them”, they would rise to the challenge and surpass it. So proud of these girls for showing us all what can be done with a goal and a whole lot of work and dedication! Perfect Season! It really is a special accomplishment. It is the first middle school team since the completion of the Malad Middle School (possibly before as well) to have a perfect undefeated season and win the District Tournament!
The Malad boys basketball team (1-6 overall; 0-0 in conference) faced off at home against Ririe (7-2 overall; 0-1 in conference), December 15. The team was missing several players, giving many of the younger players new opportunities to step up and help their team. It also asked more of their veteran players to take the lead on the court. The Dragons put together an exciting game as they worked the ball up and down the court. Ririe came at them with a fast paced game, asking the defense to step up and make some crucial stops. Malad’s offense was effective both around the arc as well as driving up through the key to lay the ball off the glass. Gabe Bingham and Jace Williams got the offense rolling, hitting some big shots. As the game continued, Ririe brought an aggressive full court defense in the second half. Malad matched their intensity and took advantage of opportunities to hustle the ball down and score. Riley Cluff worked to attack the Bulldog’s defense to score and earn shots from the free throw line. With seconds left in the third quarter, Cooper Jones quickly inbounded the ball down the court to Jace Williams. He passed the ball to open teammate Ben Petersen who laid the ball off the glass just as the buzzer rang, ending the quarter with the score 38 Ririe, 23 Malad. Malad came back out on the court with renewed intensity in the fourth quarter. Ririe started into some foul trouble, sending the dragons to the free throw line for a one and one. Malad matched Ririe shot for shot throughout the final quarter but it wasn’t enough to gain the difference and Ririe ultimately won, 5142.

last week against Ririe. The C Team fell to their opponents 25-52. Malad led the first quarter 11 – 6 but Ririe came roaring back and took control of the game. Malad was playing down players with no subs available and they just could not keep pace. The JV team also ended falling to Ririe 32 – 47. They kept this game close for most of the first three quarters but just could not keep up in the end. Varsity Girls The varsity girls (0-10 overall; 0-1 in the conference)
