Philippians 1:19-21”For I know that
through your prayersand the help given bythe Spirit of JesusChrist, what has hap-pened to me will turnout for my deliver-ance. I eagerlyexpect and hope thatI will in no way be
ashamed, but will have sufficient courageso that now as always Christ will be exalt-ed in my body, whether by life or by death.For to me, to live is Christ and to die isgain.”
The Holy Spirit teaches us how to appealto the most essential needs of every person.Paul wrote, Philippians 1:19 says, “I willcontinue to rejoice, for I know that throughyour prayers and the help given by theSpirit of Jesus Christ, what has happenedto me will turn out for my deliverance.”Amen!
The Holy Spirit gives us insights intoemotional, mental, physical, social,economic, cultural, and spiritual
needs of every person. Ask the Lord for
special wisdom to help you persuasivelyappeal to every individual’s felt, perceivedand real needs in a way that draws themcloser to the Lord.
The Holy Spirit guides you to plead withpeople according to their individual andgroup perspectives. Jesus said in Luke12:12, “For the Holy Spirit will teach youat that time what you should say.” Ask theLord to give you special guidance in theway that you plead with people accordingto their greatest needs for safety, security,belonging, acceptance and success. Amen!
The Holy Spirit provides you with a spe-cial timing in your appeals to people. . Acts10:19 says, “While Peter was still thinkingabout the vision, the Spirit said to him,’Simon, three men are looking for you. Soget up and go downstairs. Do not hesitate togo with them, for I have sent them.” Amen!Ask the Lord for a special sensitivity to thetiming of your appeals to people. The Spiritknows when people are at their most recep-tive state of mind.The Holy Spirit senses the kind of appeals
that will draw people to the love of JesusChrist. People respond differently to moti-vations based on their personality, back-ground and experiences. 1st John 2:20says,
“But you have anointing from the HolyOne, and all of you know the truth. As foryou, anointing you received from himremains in you, and you do not need any-one to teach you.” Amen! Ask the Lord tohelp you to facilitate all the teaching abili-ties given to you in the person of the HolySpirit. Beseech the Lord to help you appealto the various personality, background andexperiential wants and desires in yourorganization for God’s purposes and glory.
The Holy Spirit knows just which peopleare lonely, hurting or disillusioned. TheSpirit can give the best kind of petition inyour praying to draw people closer to God,His will and His people. Acts 9:17 says,“Brothers, choose seven men from amongyou who are known to be full of the Spiritand wisdom.” Amen! Pray that God willgive you special sensitivity to the emotionsof your people so that you can minister thebest healing words to them. Also, ask theLord to help you to find people who areskilled in appealing to the lonely, hurtingand disillusioned and learn all you can fromthem.
The Holy Spirit provides you with thebest appeals for repentance, conviction ofsin and conversion. Acts 2; 38 says, “Peter
replied, “Repent and be baptized, every oneof you, in the name of Jesus Christ for theforgiveness of your sins. And you willreceive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” Ask theLord for such persuasive abilities that youcan appeal as Peter did when He saw 3,000added to the family of God on the day ofPentecost. Trust the Lord to provide youwith elders and leaders in your church thatwill be able to make powerful appeals forrepentance, conviction of sin and conver-sion as they may have special gifts of evan-gelism that you are lacking.
The Holy Spirit knows how to makeappeals that pierce through any person’sintellectual, emotional or cultural barriers.Isaiah 44; 8, 9 says, “For my thoughts arenot your thoughts, neither are your waysmy ways. As the heavens are higher thanthe earth, so are my ways higher than yourways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”Ask the Lord to let the Holy Spirit makespecial appeals in the hearts of each personin your organization as you use prayer andthe word of God to appeal to every person’sconscience.

The Lockout EndsA Christmas Gift for Mavericks and Fans
celebRaTiNg 50 yeaRs Of cOmmuNiTy seRvice
By: Bettye “Katt” WilliamsELITE nEWS STAFF WRITER
On last week, the long wait for theDallas Mavericks and the fans wasfinally over as the results everyone
had been waiting for came to fruition. Anagreement to end the nBA lockout by aMinnesota Federal U.S. District JudgePatrick Schiltz has put the legal fightbetween the nBA’s players and owners onhold to give the two sides time to finishtheir collective bargaining agreement andgranted a request by the players and issueda stay of all court The stay is valid untilDecember 9, and a formal agreement isexpected to be approved.
What does this mean for the Mavericksand all nBA teams? They will be able toreturn to work, assuming all the details getfinalized after a five-month-old lockoutcomes to an end. A 66-game season, as istentatively planned, means 16 fewer regu-lar-season games of wear and tear on JasonKidd and Dirk nowitzki.
So will Tyson Chandler, a free agent,open up and celebrate the opener at AACwith the Dallas Mavericks? Or will MarkCuban not be smart and let him go? I’msure Dallas Mavericks players and fanswant to see him come back; I know I do.Chandler is the Mavericks’ prized freeagent who will get a healthy raise from the$12.6 million he collected last year. Sowhat does Mark Cuban have to do to keephim? I am confident that Mark Cuban willfigure out a way. The other Mavs’ free agents are guards
J.J. Barea and DeShawn Stevenson, andforwards Caron Butler, Peja Stojakovic andBrian Cardinal.
Since winning the championship on June12, with a series-closing 105-95 victory inMiami, the Mavs are hoping they will notonly be celebrating an opener that will beone of the biggest sports days in FortWorth/Dallas history, but celebrate by get-ting their championship rings and have the
championship banner raised to the raftersas well on Christmas Day.
“Either way it goes it’s going to be a cel-ebration,” Terry said. “It’s a Christmas Daygame, we’re excited to be back out thereplaying, and I’m fired up and I’m ready togo. I wouldn’t care who came to town toplay — Miami or whoever — it doesn’tmatter. We’re back, we’re out there, we’reexcited, and we’re at home, so we want towin.”
The Heat has been picked as a prohibi-tive favorite to capture the nBA title saysthe media. It’s going to be who can main-tain in a rough season healthy and who canhave the drive to win.The Mavs will have a 10-day training
camp, a couple of pre-season games, andopening day (Christmas) is less than amonth away and one of the biggest days inMavs history.
The nBA regular season would runthrough April 26, and teams must play atleast one set of back-to-back-to-backgames if a new labor deal is ratified in timeto start on Christmas. The league posted anoutline of what the schedule would looklike on its Twitter pages Sunday. The plan
is a 66-game regular season, ending about10 days later than usual. The last possibleday of the nBA finals would be June 26,two weeks later than the championshipseries ended last season. Teams wouldplay 48 games within their conference and18 non-conference games. no team wouldplay on three straight nights more thanthree times.
So, will the Mavericks repeat as nBAchampions?

Young Former Lincoln High School Student ToRun For DISD School Board
december 2, 2011 www.dfwelitenews.com page 4
By: Damarcus OffordSPECIAL TO ELITE nEWS
The reason I am running for the Dallas ISD SchoolBoard Trustee seat, District 9, I believe that we muststart with the community and the stakeholders and
teachers who deserve the utmost respect. Our District isgoing in the wrong direction, teachers and parents and thecommunity feels that they are not valued anymore. Wemust not forget that when you serve in public office that isa big responsibility, and if you are not doing your job youmust answer to the public and if you call that getting bulliedyou do not need to serve. People in my community should
not have to go back and hear from other people about information in District 9. As trustee, youare my boss and you are the people I answer to, which are my community, teachers, studentsand parents and stakeholders. I believe that DISD as a whole is going backwards instead of mov-ing forward for the students. Are we pro public, or pro charter schools? As trustee, I will makesure that all concerns are herd and will work my hardest to make sure that we keep the commu-nity involved. We must stop cutting educators and find innovative ways to keep our schoolsopen. We must believe in our community and support the up and coming leaders of tomorrow,our youth. Damarcus Offord was born October 7, 1991 in Dallas, TX to the parents of Latrice Offord and
Marcus McQueen. Growing up, Damarcus was always a person who loved going to school andattending church with his family. At an early age his family and peers began to see what a leaderhe was becoming when he was involved in things at his school and programs he would take partin. When Damarcus attending Paul L. Dunbar Elementary School in South Dallas, he figuredout, he was becoming a tremendous leader. When he arrived at Pearl C. Anderson Middle
School in the 7th grade, he wanted to make a difference in his community and in his school.Damarcus was involved in student council his 7th and 8th grade years. While at Pearl C.Anderson he had the chance to travel to Washington, D.C. with the student council and his classmates to see beyond South Dallas, the area where he was raised. When he left Pearl C. he didnot just stop, he kept on going by taking roles as a responsible leader and using the tools that helearned in middle school. Damarcus went on to attend Lincoln High School where he becameinvolved in student council as a sophomore representative and was also voted as junior repre-sentative. He later became the Lincoln High School junior class president for the 2009-2010school years and was re-elected to serve his class as senior class president for the 2010-2011school years. Damarcus Offord traveled to the 2009 Presidential Inauguration in Chicago to film a documen-
tary on President Barack Obama. Damarcus had the chance to meet Jessie Jackson and manydifferent people. Damarcus also served on the Dallas ISD Teen School Board 2009-10 and 2010-11. Selected by his peers, for two consecutive years, he served as the community chairperson.Damarcus also helped the Dallas ISD Teen Board start a reading program which occurred twoyears straight in partnership with the East Dallas Boys & Girls Club to help youth understandimportance of reading and staying in their books.Accomplishments: Helped Bring Emmitt Smith to Lincoln to speak to the Lincoln students,
May 2011, youth of the year at the East Dallas Boys & Girls Club, May 2011, I won $5,000 forLincoln High School to help beautify the campus, September 2009, Education Is Freedom stu-dent and also featured in the “EIF” video, Member of the nAACP, Served on the Dallas ISDAssistant Principal of the year selection committee, appeared on several national websites forleading a student protest in March of 2011 at Lincoln High School, regarding teacher layoffs andbudget cuts for Texas schools, and serves on the navarro College SGA, where he is currentlythe only African American serving on the Executive Board, but not the first, he is the freshmenrepresentative. So I why do I want to run? Because “THE TIME IS nOW”

Special to Elite News
Three rounds into the playoffs, Dallas
Skyline now knows its offense can
pack as much punch as its defense
when necessary with a 41-20 win.
Skyline's offense raced past Klein Oak and
its defense came up with key stops to grab a
42-24 victory over the Panthers in a Class
5A Division I Region 2 matchup Saturday at
Waco ISD Stadium. Skyline quarterback
Devante Kincade threw for 167 yards and a
touchdown and ran for 102 yards and a
score, and receiver Thomas Johnson turned
in the two biggest runs of the night. And the
Raiders' defense constantly threw Klein Oak
for losses and took the ball away in key
moments.
Tron Richardson posted a pair of sacks, a
tackle for loss and an interception, but he
wasn't the only Raider swarming to the foot-
ball. "We're not a one-horse team," Skyline
coach Reginald Samples said. "We depend
on our whole team and we've got players all
over. The defense kept playing hard even
though we gave up some points."
By dismissing Klein Oak (9-4), Skyline
(13-0) advances to the regional final round
of the 5A Division I playoffs to face The
Woodlands at 4 p.m. Saturday at Waco ISD
Stadium. Skyline held a 14-10 advantage as
the third quarter began, but it didn't take
long for the Raiders to extend that lead.
Johnson tacked on a 41-yard touchdown on
almost the exact same play at the end of the
third quarter, giving him 105 rushing yards
and two touchdowns on two carries. Skyline
running back David Greene added a touch-
down, and Kincade threw a 29-yard touch-
down pass to RaShaad Samples, who
absorbed a hit inside the Panthers' 5, held
himself up with his right hand and then
hopped into the end zone for the Raiders'
final score.
Dallas Skyline win 42-24 over Klein Oak

INvASION OF THEU. S. A. BY THE 3RD
WORLDPart I
We have peoplecoming herefrom all over
the world. Our govern-ment has let immigration laws get complete-ly out of hand. There should be greaterrestrictions on our immigration laws in thiscountry.
Let me give a few examples of safetywithin this country. When World War IIbegan and Japan got involved in the warwith America, this country did not take anychances with people from that country whowere now living in America. This countrybuilt camps for those people to live until thewar was over.
now, not only will we continue to let peo-ple into this country who we know hates us,but we let them into our Armed Forces. Weknow people out of the Middle Easterncountries hate us something terrible. Theynot only talk about distruction of America,but they themselves have tried to destroythings and people within our country. Lookat 9/11 in new york / Washington, DC.Look what happened at Ft, Hood Armybase not long ago. A Chaplain in uniformborn in America. But yet hated this countrybecause he was an Arab.
We have had problems with Arab nationsfor a very long time now, because they hateAmericans. now, if we know this, why dowe still let them into our country? Whenyou are at War with another country, thereshould not be anyway they could get a
VISA to come here. Whether we are in ashooting war or not, it is still war, becausethey are looking for ways to destroy us.
We have given over our schools andneighborhood stores to 3rd world people.Our schools are in serious trouble becauseAmerican culture has been deluted with 3rdworld culture. Their teaching is done moreor less from a 3rd world prospective. The
discipline in schools are at it’s lowest level,because 3rd world culture is not as strict asAmerican culture. you can understand thatvery well just by walking into Wal-Marts.Most of your gas stations and neighborhoodstores are owned and operated by 3rd worldpeople, because American banks havemoney set aside just to loan them just forthat reason, but we cannot get a loan likethat.
They buy stores in our neighborhoodbecause they know we are not going to cometogether and buy anything to serve ourneighborhood. Every nation / culture knowthat we are consumers only. We do not wantto own anything in our own neighborhood,and that’s why people just come into thiscountry and run right to our neighborhoods.
I am very intrigued over the fact thatevery outside country come here has a dis-like for the BLACK citizens of this country,in fact they hate us because they think theymust find someone in this country that theyare better than, so, they choose us. Evenpeople from Africa think they are better.now, that is really something, but we makethem think that way because a lot of us pickout a corner, a tree in a vacant lot and start adomino game each day and not look for ajob. Pull our pants down below our butts,wear our caps backwards, or side ways, andto top things off we walk around cursingloud, disrespecting others, and ourselves,We let others know that we do not want todo anything other than make people believewe are something that we are not. Do not getme wrong, I know that does not apply to allof us, but that group of us I am talking aboutis too many. Since others think that they arebetter than we are, they will take a smallgroup of us and apply it to all of us as anation of people.I have learned that countries do not need
bullets to invade a country who will opendoors and let them in like we are doing inthis day and time.Let us not forget to read our Bibles. And
may God bless you REAL GOOD , and mayHe ever keep you in His loving care.

Dear Dr. Hollie:
Irecently inherited some familyheirlooms from a distant relative.I’ve heard about these items from
other relatives but had only ever seenpictures of them. Ialso received papers that authenticatetheir financial value. They are worth alot. In my family, these items are con-sidered to be a legacy to be preservedfor future generations.The issue is that my great-great-great uncle, who
left the items to me, had changed his will a coupleof years ago when he and another great-great-greatniece had a huge disagreement. He became illshortly after the incident and never fully recovered.At a recent family gathering, the subject of this dis-owned cousin came up. Her mother actually con-fronted me, saying that the uncle and niece had rec-onciled and that he had planned to revise his willagain. She strongly suggested that I relinquish theheirlooms to her, the mother, for safekeeping whilethe cousin recovers in a rehabilitation facility.This of course started a family discussion.
The mother, and few others, thought I should givethe heirlooms up because our uncle was really closeto my cousin and he and I had only met a fewtimes. They were convinced that the will would’vebeen changed if our uncle had time. The rest of the
family was concerned that heirloomswould be sold as so many otherthings had been in an effort to sup-port her long-term drug problems.They all thought that the argumenthad been over the drugs. She hasbeen in rehab many times before andalways reverts back to drugs. noone knew about the reconciliationbut the mother.
Anyway, I’m torn about what Ishould do. I know that they were
close at one time but I don’t want to see the familylegacy lost from the family.
Just wanna do the right thing
Dear Just,
I can understand how you would want to honorwhat the family is asking of you, specifically yourcousin’s mom. However, the uncle entrusted theheirlooms to you and, as you see now, with goodreason. Therefore, these items are to remain withyou as you continue his legacy.

Anyone who hasexperienced thespirituality in
prayers knows that theyhave the strength touplift you to a tranquilstate of mind. you loseyour doubts and your
apprehensions whenyou put yourself in thehands of an omnipo-tent God. Prayers are avery personal choice
and should never be imposed upon you by any-one. How you pray and what you want to prayfor are completely your decisions and yet youneed to experience it for the first time to knowhow it feels. Thankfully, parents do their bit in introducing
prayers to children so that they may appreciatethem when they can understand their meaningbetter. Christmas is the celebration of the birthof Jesus Christ or nativity of Christ. It is impor-tant to note that the figure of the ‘Son of God’was not born amidst riches or to a King. He hadthe origins of being born to humble parents in astable whose virtue lay in their spotless charac-ter. It is thus a beautiful truth that spiritualawakening came to the seeker regardless ofwhether he possessed worldly riches or not.Thus, Christmas prayers celebrating Jesus’birth make you feel blessed that God or theSupreme Being once walked this very earthand opened a path from the earth to heaven foreveryone to follow. Christmas prayers can be of many different
hues and shades but the essence of theseprayers is thanking the Lord for what He hasgiven you and speaking positive affirmationsthat things will improve. This feeling of grati-tude fills you with inspiration and comfort fora better tomorrow even when things in thisworld might not be perfect at the moment. So, ifyou haven’t yet felt the power of a prayer full ofhope, optimism and positive words, experienceit once to develop the faith everyone requires intheir life for that intangible solace humans seek.

Notes From Union Hope
Our Sundayschool lessontitled, “Facing
Life Without Worry”Matthew 6: 25-34, thelesson high pointswere, “God is ourgreater provider, whatwe need to do to getrelieve from worry andrelining on God to
meet our needs.” Dr. Johnny King deliveredthe morning message titled, “DelayedDeliverance” Matthew 14: 22-29. We werethe guest at Independence Baptist Churchwhere Rev. M. L. Gee is the pastor to helpcelebrate their annual women day, Dr. Kingdelivered the annual day message titled,“Lessons learned From The Pool ofBethesda” John 5: 1-4, his high points were,“Identifying our need, stop blaming otherpeople and stretching beyond our selves.”
Johnny King
From the Mount
Our ChurchS c h o o llesson was
“Facing Life with-out Worry”MATTHEW 6:25-34 was a lesson fit-ted for our time.With the world it
seems is in arecession, jobsare scarce, fami-ly members
killing family members, our politiciansso far removed from the common peo-ple and entrenched in their parties agen-da that they are paralyzed to the pointof doing nothing that they gave thecommon people pause to worry. Butthose that know the Lord can rest inknowing that they serve a Saviour whonot only care for them but have prom-ised to take care of them and they neednot be frozen by fear. Jesus told us thatlife consist of more than food andclothes. He calls our attention to thefact that birds have no need to plant orharvest or put food in barns becauseh=their heavenly father feeds them. Ibegan to reflect and could not remem-
ber ever seeing a bird die from starva-tion unless someone had caged themup. If God takes such good care of birdsand flowers he asked why do we worrywhen we have a greater value to himthan any of these things. The lessontaught us not to borrow from tomor-row’s troubles because today’s troubleis enough for today. Have you everwent to bed worried about somethingbad that was supposed to happen thenext day and the day went by and itnever happened? Often we ruin ourtoday worried about a tomorrow thatmay or may not come. When we placeour faith in the Lord who know all ofour tomorrows we can live a worry freelife. The morning message was deliv-ered by our guest was Rev. Wright ofGalilee Missionary Baptist church fromthe subject “Learning how to be thank-ful” Rom.1:12. There are many littlethings in life that people and God do forus that we never say to them “Thankyou.”
Be blessed
Psalm 119:105 your word is a lamp to my feet and a
light for my path
Eld lloyd T. Morgan
Ihave written a lot concerning the purposeand advantage of the enclosed place ofprayer, which is our prayer closet, a
place where we are alone with God, inprayer. However, there are times when wewhen we need to pray with others. Prayingwith others often brings us special encour-agement. Jesus said, “Again I say unto you,that if two of you shall agree on earth astouching anything that they shall ask, it shallbe done for them of my Father which is inheaven. For where two or three are gatheredtogether in my name, there am I in the midstof them” (Matthew 18:19-20). Perhaps wewould see great things happening in ourchurches if we spentmore time prayingtogether. We can seein the book of Actswhat priority thebelievers gave toprayer. “They contin-ued steadfast inprayer daily, and theLord added to thechurch daily” (Acts2:42-47). Pastor Clarence

At the first of the nFL sea-son you had contendersand pretenders. Three
fourths of the way through thingsis coming in to focus. The creamis slowly coming to the top. Thereare still some big questions to be
answered. I’m never naïve enough with 5 regular seasongames remaining to pick Champions. I do have a revela-tion, Andy Reed the coach of the Philadelphia Eagle canbe declared the dumbest coach in the nFL.
I can truthfully say after some research, that that titleis his and his along. His team is pretty much out of theplay-off picture. And it was wonderfully engineered byhim. In a must win game he benched arguably his bestplayer. He said it was because DeSean Jackson missed aspecial team meeting. A Player of Jackson’s caliber
would never be a kick returner on any smartly coachedteam unless it’s in emergency situation.
Dez Bryant the Cowboy’s young receiver is anexcellent kick returner, but the Cowboy’s fear injuryand chose not play him there unless it’s a must situa-
tion.First off Jackson is having problems getting his con-
tract re-worked. Jackson is one of the triggers on thisteam. yet the eagle’s brought in $200 million of freeagent players, none of which is as critical to their suc-cess as Jackson. not being a big fan of the Eagles I loveit.
The word is they’re afraid to pay him big moneybecause they’re afraid, with his diminutive size hewould get hurt. But they gave Michael Vick $100 mil-lion and he’s been hurt twice this year, and he’s injurednow. Most experts included yours truly think that Vinceyoung is a bigger, better, healthier, and most of allcheaper Quarterback than Vick. I keep hearing aboutVick’s potential, Vicks in his 30’s. It doesn’t generallytake a super star that long to shine.
Every athlete in the world when their value is ques-tioned, they’re judged by Championships. Vince is likeTim Tebow, pretty or not he wins, Vick has never wonanything. But a foot race or two. He will always get hurt.Even the Michael Vick supporters, should be wonderingin a game against the Giants a must game, you suspendVicks best weapon. Because he missed a special teammeeting.
Jimmy Johnson cut a linebacker, John Roper forsleeping in a meeting. When ask what would he haddone if that was Emmitt Smith, Johnson said. I wouldhave told Emmitt to wake up to wake up, but Jimmie’sgot two Super- Bowl rings. you don’t cut your nose offto spite your face. Michael Irvin missed a flight, orshould I say Mike got left in Dallas, Jimmie declaredMike would not start that game. Second offensive playof the game there goes Michael Irvin. After the gamewhen questioned by the Media. you only kept mike outone down, Jimmie’s reply “I’m not stupid”. As I saidJimmie’s got Two Rings.

He was most passion-ate about the fleet of cars.
Mr. Ford’s wake was held on Monday,november 28th, from 7:00-9:00 p.m. Hisfuneral was Tuesday, november 29, at 11:00a.m. Both services were held at Mt. RoseChurch, 7151 Field View Lane, Dallas, TX.
He is preceded in death by his mother,Allene Beckwith; grandparents, AllenZachery, Bessie Overton, Johnnie Ford,Gladys Braggs, Eddie Beckwith Sr. andCharlotte Bethely-Moore.
He met and married his high school sweet-heart, Cynthia Woodard, and to this union twochildren were born. He later met and married

It was you that taught me men don't cry. Itwas you that took me out and taught me whata ten and out was. It was you that turned meloose to drive at 12 years old in Long Beach,California; dropping you off at the ship andCynthia watching me pass right by the house.I never had a birthday party as an adult, but 2
weeks ago you and Mr. Blair made sure I did.I am going to miss how competitive you were;if it was Dominoes, or just talking noise, youwanted the last word. You would beat me towork every day and would sit in the office andtell me what everybody was doing wrong. Youwould say “It’s official" and you would sit onthe front row of every staff meeting. Twoweeks ago, you told me you were going to joinmy church and I reminded you that's yourcalling not mine. — John Beckwith Jr.
He was Special and will be missed dearly,said Mr. William Blair and the Elite newsStaff.
