Live More Ministries presents Susan Richter

(Adams Center, NY) On Saturday, August 14, 2010 Live More Ministries will present Susan Richter speaking on “Facing Your Giants Head-On with God-Given Faith and Patience” at 9:45 a.m. at Grace Community Church in Adams Center. A breakfast served by the Grace Community Church women will be held from 9 to 9:45 a.m. followed by the program.

The church is located at 17784 Michael Road off US 11 south of Adams Center.

The church has recently begun welcoming women from the northern Oswego County area to its programs. All are welcome.

Susan will share how faith can help people face such real-life challenges as the upheaval of moving a family with children several hundred miles, leaving family behind, and needing to sell a house in one area and find jobs in another.

Susan says, “I look forward to sharing our family motto: Remember who you are and whose your are as you face your giants. I hope the women attending this Live More Ministries program will take home the message that they can let God lead them to work through their challenges whatever they may be and make them able to face their ‘giants’ without being overwhelmed.”

A life-long teacher, she taught gifted students in the Beaver River and General Brown School Districts for a number of years after moving to the North Country region in 1988.

Live More Ministries is a Christian women’s fellowship group based in the South Jefferson area. Women from all locations are welcome at Live More Ministries’ programs. To learn more about Live More Ministries or the August 14 program, call Chris at 315-767-2058 or email sallyj@twcny.rr.com or go online to livemoreministries.blogspot.com.

(Adams Center, NY – July 20, 2010) On July, 19, 2010, approximately 11:40PM, Jefferson County 911 dispatched the State Troopers to the Nice and Easy Grocery Store, Route 177, Adams Center, NY, for a report of a 19 year old male, who was at that location, with apparent gunshot related injuries to his left arm.

The victim, identified as Quinton E. Bauer, of Watertown, NY, was transported by South Jefferson Rescue, to SMC Hospital in Watertown. Bauer was treated and released, with non-life threatening injuries.

The subsequent investigation identified the person that shot Bauer as Brandon M, LaDue, age 21, of 18214 ST-177, Apt 5, Adams Center, NY. LaDue was taken into State Police custody at about approximately 11:30 AM on State Route 11, Watertown Center. A shotgun was used to perpetrate this crime, and said weapon was later recovered by Troopers.

LaDue was charged with Assault in the 2nd Degree and Reckless Endangerment 1st Degree. LaDue was arraigned in the Town of Adams Court, and committed to the Jefferson County Jail in lieu of $50,000 bail / $100,000 bond.

The motive for this criminal act by LaDue appears related to a dispute between a LaDue family member, and the victim.
