STACEY LAVALLIE

Weekender reporterThe public house and re-

union coming up at the Stet-tler branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is more than just a chance to witness the con-gregation’s faith and catch up with friends who have moved away from the com-munity. It’s a leg of a race the church is running, with the reward being its history.

Don Seale, president of the local branch of the church, commonly referred to as the “Mormon Church,” admitted the church hasn’t kept a perfect history in the past 50-plus years.

“As time goes on and peo-ple move away and memo-ries fade, our chances of recording these memories shrinks,” he said.

While a lot of the impor-tant dates and names have been recorded by the church, it’s the personal stories and memories the church wants to record. Rather than a plain history book, they want a living, breathing his-tory full of emotion and love for the Heavenly Father.

The Mormon faith was founded in the 1830s, after Joseph Smith is said to have recovered the Mormon testa-ment in New York state. The testament to God states that God instructed a family to leave Jerusalem hundreds of years before Jesus was born, and they eventually settled in North America. There, they practiced their faith, living as instructed by the Heavenly Father, recording their history. After Jesus was crucified in Israel, He ap-peared before the Mormon people in North America.

The teachings and history

of the Mormon prophets in North America are the basis of the Church of Latter-day Saints’ faith, alongside the Bible.

“It doesn’t replace the Bi-ble,” Seale states firmly. “It works alongside it.”

He said the teachings in the Book of Mormon, along with prayer and study, help interpret statements that may be unclear in the Bible.

When it comes to faith and history, Seale remem-bers his own quite clearly, from the moment two Mor-mon missionaries showed up at his door and asked him a question.

“I remember exactly the question they asked me,” he said. “To this day.”

The missionaries asked him if he would like to live with his family with the Heavenly Father, Seale re-called. As someone who had sought answers in differ-ent faiths, the question just spoke to his heart.

“I said yes,” he said. After that, he met with people of the church, learned about the faith, and began to study and pray to get his own answers from the Heavenly Father.

“It’s been all I’ve wanted it to be – and more,” he said. “I’ve had so many great blessings – my wife and children, our families, the friends we make. It’s a large basis of our life – the faith.”

The personal story goes to show part of the need for the history project the church is embarking on. The person-al stories of how and why people were Called by the Heavenly Father to the faith, to roles within the church, to missionary work, is an important part of the story, Seale explained.

At the open house and reunion on Sept. 5, comput-ers will be set up and any-one who wishes to share their stories of their Call-ings, faith and experiences are invited to sit down and type until they’ve run out of words.

Some of the history Seale said the church hopes to fill in is missionary and com-munity work.

“We’ve worked with the museum,” he said, refer-ring to the Stettler Town and Country Museum. “We’ve done some clean-up, paint-ing and moving. We’ve worked with the Food Bank drive in the fall, and we have a longstanding association with Meals on Wheels.”

The downfall to Meals on Wheels, though, is the in-

ability to visit with the peo-ple to whom he delivers the food, Seale said.

“You have more meals waiting to deliver, getting cold,” he explained.

All roles at the church are volunteer – there’s no paid preacher in the faith. For Seale, he was Called to be president about five years ago, the average time a per-son remains in a position af-ter receiving guidance from the Heavenly Father.

It’s been more than 50 years since the church set itself up in Stettler, spending their Sundays at the Inter-national Order of Odd Fel-lows hall in Stettler. It took about 15 years from that first meeting to when ground was broken on the current church premises, and a year later, in

1977, the first open house ceremony.

The public is invited to join in a guided tour and open house of the church on

Saturday, Sept. 5, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. People of all faiths and backgrounds are welcome, and there will be light refreshments.

Inset: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints had existed in Stettler for years, meeting on Sundays at the International Order of Odd Fellows hall. However, in 1976 the fi rst phase of the current branch was built on 40 Ave. The second phase, which began in the 80s, added the current culture room and sacrament rooms.

We’re sure everyone is nervous about the volatility experienced over the last few days on the world mar-kets, so we want to share some thoughts on what’s transpired. We have been working to gather some in-formation to get a feel for what to expect going for-ward. We are now in the sixth year of a bull market, an unusually long time pe-riod to sustain one. Cor-rections are natural in any bull market as a pause in the market’s march higher, this one long overdue. They usually come about once ev-ery 18 months, with the last one four years ago, for the record there here have been 11 Bear market declines (greater than 20 per cent) of note since 1965 with an average recovery time of two years. Below are some of the events that triggered this selloff.

The big selling trigger was more evidence that China’s economy is slowing down, plus plenty of other worrisome developments weighing on the market, like Greece. What happens in China matters, not just because it’s the world’s second-biggest economy, but because falling Chinese demand sent global prices plunging for all manner of commodities; iron, copper, oil; etc. which wallops ex-porting countries. Also the sudden and unexpected de-valuation of the Yuan trig-gered other governments to drive their currencies lower,

impacting financial markets and stoking fears of a cur-rency war.

The steep drop in the price of oil over the last month has become a major concern as oil dropped be-low $40 a barrel, its low-est price since the financial crisis six years ago. There is some discussion about an emergency OPEC meeting to reduce production, which would go a long way in sta-bilizing the price of oil. The upside to falling oil is all the money drivers will save at the gas pumps, as should re-sult in an increase in spend-ing by them and a faster-growing U.S. economy. But Americans have been choosing to pay off debt in-stead of going shopping, so their household finances are healthier, but there needs to be a pickup in spending as well.

The S&P 500 and the Dow broke through a few key technical levels re-cently. One important one is their 200-day moving averages, which the two in-dexes pierced on Thursday 20th, helping to fuel sell-ing. Both indexes dropped 2.1 per cent that day, before

tumbling further on Friday 21st. The good news is the last time the S&P 500 broke through its 200-day mov-ing average, in early July; it bounced back after a few days.

The Federal Reserve has been signaling that it might start raising rates to keep inflation in check, perhaps as soon as September. In-vestors have been fretting that the market could drop sharply when the central bank starts raising rates, as the rates, held near zero for the entire bull market, have been widely credited with pushing stock prices up. That being said, investors did an about-face and start-ed worrying about the oppo-site. In the minutes from the central bank’s July meeting, Fed officials expressed con-cern that China’s slowdown could pose risks to the U.S. economy. Investors wor-ried that meant growth here is fragile, and started sell-ing. The market was say-ing, start lifting rates, let’s get this over with. Now the market is concerned that the Fed is worried the economy is slowing, this switch in views is ironic and a bit sur-

prising. On the bright side; the U.S. economy is health-ier, employers have been on a hiring spree, which has pushed unemployment to a low of 5.3 per cent. House prices are up, companies have improved sales and balance sheets, plus Mil-lennials (younger new con-sumers) now outnumber baby boomers and should start to drive consumption by spending.

So, several issues impact-ing the markets! Our client’s portfolios are structured using a balanced strategy thus not subject to near as much volatility as the mar-ket itself. Most of us have been through this before, we just need to remember that the markets do correct; a normal, healthy process. There’s will always be is-sues around the globe that impacts markets, but none the less over time investors have always been rewarded for staying the course and this time will not be any different. Also we need to remember that markets recovered from the 40per cent plus melt down in 2008 within 18 months. Market drops mean buying opportu-nities; those who have cash to invest need to understand any market correction pres-ents an opportunity to buy units/shares at lower prices. We will continue to moni-tor events as they unfold, so please feel free to call us if you have any questions.

Sincerely,Peter Boys CAFA

MOUSH SARA JOHN

Weekender reporter

On the first and third Tuesday of every month, there is a flurry of activity around 7 p.m. in the evening as the concession hall parking gets filled at the Stettler Agriplex.

But surprisingly, a majority of cars in the parking have no trailers.

They belong to members of the cowboy community who attend the cowboy church service from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

In 2007, when Vic Stuckey and his wife Joyce, residents of a small village near Red Willow realized it would be a good idea to have a cowboy church in Stettler, they approached Don Wudel and his wife Colleen, who had been the pastor of services held at cowboy poetry gatherings in and around the County of Stettler.

Having to pay only one personnel and using some of the funds for the musicians, the church often has surplus funds, which it has used for charitable causes, such as Central Alberta Special Equestrians Association (CASE), Stettler and District Handibus and Stettler Hospital among others.

In its ninth year, the cowboy church has on an average of 70-80 persons attending the service.

“We are independent and strictly on our own, with no interference

from other higher organizations,” said Stuckey. “But, if we need support financially we can count on the cowboy church in Sherwood Park, outside Edmonton.”

Members of the cowboy church also attend regular Sunday worship in their own churches, which determined why the cowboy church is held on Tuesday evenings.

“People have a need to worship and it is important for me to be a part of that worship and help people when they are in need in other ways too,” said Pastor Wudel. “Either going through some difficulty, or overcoming the death of a loved one or even if they need marriage counseling, because in my service to them my personal relationship with God evolves.”

The cowboy church is not only a place of worship for some, but a place to interact with community members over music and coffee, and be a part of the fellowship.

Coming together at Stettler’s Cowboy Church

Vic Stuckey, one of the most well known members of the Stettler cowboy church addresses the congrega-tion during one of their performances.

By Ruth Atherley Like many people 40 and

over, my travel expectations

are different than they were when I was younger. And I’m not just talking about upping the number of stars

of the accommodation or travelling business class (although those are the nice little perks of having a bit more money). These days, my focus is less about cost and nightlife and more on finding authentic experi-ences. I want to learn about the culture, engage with lo-cals (not just people set up to entertain tourists), and to feel like I am connecting with others who certainly live a different life than me, but who – on a human level – aren’t so different after all.

While I love checking out iconic sites and activi-ties and visiting museums, I also want to go off the beaten path and push myself a little (I said “a little” – let’s be real, I am on vacation!). I want to go beyond the all-inclusive resort and away from where the big tour buses roam, while working off those extra “doesn’t this taste great” calories and lo-cal beverages. I really don’t want to gain weight on va-cation. Most importantly – I want to be where the locals are, to experience a moment in their life.

To accomplish all of this, my husband and I took a

BikeHike Adventures tour of Vietnam and Cambodia. BikeHike has a range of tours – strenuous, challeng-ing, moderate and easy. Our tour was moderate, which means you need a reason-able fitness level because you bike, kayak or hike for up to five hours a day. Moderate was perfect for us – it pushed us enough to make us feel like we ac-complished something (and we really appreciated a cold, local beer at the end of the day), but not so much that we were out of our comfort zone or in pain the next day.

The 12-day Active Indo-china trip begins in Hanoi, Vietnam, with the first eight days in North Vietnam, and then wraps up in Siem Reap, Cambodia – home to the world-famous Angkor Wat temple. BikeHike’s maxi-

mum on any trip is 12 peo-ple, with a minimum of two, so it is always a small group and there is no single supple-ment. The land only cost is $3,799 USD and that covers almost everything once you are on the ground, including the tour guide, transporta-tion within the countries, a driver, transporting your luggage, support vehicles, bikes, kayaks, accommoda-tion and most meals.

Vietnam has soared in popularity for travellers in recent years. For North Americans, this may stem from high school history lessons and the many mov-ies and television shows based on the Vietnam War (called the American War there). While the coun-try has clearly embraced tourism, it has also stayed true to its communist self

– with megaphones set up on seemingly random cor-ners to put out government messages. Starting in the early morning, they com-municate everything from the day’s news, to calls to exercise, to songs from the ‘80s. Our tour started in the busy, crowded, noisy and absolutely fabulous capital of Hanoi. It included a rick-shaw ride around the city’s Old Quarter (where there is a very long street dedicated only to shoes – talk about paradise!) and visits to sev-eral incredible historical sites – including the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum to pay re-spects to the preserved body of the country’s beloved leader.

We then headed north, via overnight train, to arrive in Sapa, a beautiful mountain town offering views of stun-ning vistas and impressive rice terraces. On a bike ride up into these mountains with our guide, Hoa, we came across an unplanned experi-ence – several hill tribes cel-ebrating the planting of the rice. In amongst hundreds of locals, we appeared to be the only non-Vietnamese. Hoa – sensing our Canadian con-cern that we were infringing on their celebrations – ex-plained that the Vietnamese people don’t think that way. They have a “the more, the merrier” approach to cel-ebrations, to work and to life in general. They are a very social people. Hoa en-couraged us to take photos – another concern we had that we apparently shouldn’t have worried about. As soon as I lifted my camera, several little children came running up to me to pose – their faces full of smiles and their hands tightly holding onto their big sticks of sugar cane.

Vietnamese rice fi elds


A journey through East Asia …continued from page 4 The next morning, we

headed to the Golden Stream Valley. Trekking up the incredible rice terraces – which is like working out on Mother Nature’s stair climber – took some energy. While our guide was clearly more fit than we were (he also guides challenging tours and keeps up with Ironman competitors), he was sweet, charming and encouraging – taking time for breaks and to show us where we could take incredible photos. As we got into some of the vil-lages, Hoa took us for a cold beer – which, I have to say, had never tasted better.

As we set off each day, several (often up to five) women from the local tribes would follow – or accompa-ny us – often walking along with us for over an hour. Initially, this felt like a bit of an intrusion – until we lost our city attitude and realized that this was an incredible opportunity to learn about their lives. Some of our hik-ing and biking took some ef-fort, and these women – in full tribal dress – kept up with us. (They jogged while we biked!) They were funny and charming and we had some great conversations – with our guide helping to in-terpret. We got to hear about their lives and they asked about ours. At the end, we bought small souvenirs that they had made. Hoa told us

that we didn’t have to buy anything, but we wanted to give them something back for sharing their time with us.

During our time in North Vietnam, we stayed at one of the most amazing places ever – Topas Ecolodge – lo-cated in Hoang Lien Nation-al Park, about a 45-minute drive out of Sapa (although, since we hiked quite a few miles towards the lodge, our drive was only about 30 minutes). It was one of the most memorable places we have ever experienced in all of our travels. The accommodation was good and the food was excellent, but the view makes this a must-do. It felt like we had been photoshopped into a movie scene. I didn’t want to do anything except sit on the deck of our balcony and look at the view. It took my breath away. And as the sun set and rose the next morn-ing, the mountains took on different characteristics. It was stunning.

After taking the night train back to Hanoi, we headed through the Red River Delta to Halong Bay, which is spectacular in a very different way. We spent two nights on a luxury Viet-namese junk, viewing the limestone karst landscape – which is a World UNESCO Heritage Site. Along with visiting a floating village, we kayaked off of the junk – ducking in and out of caves

and coves in the bay. I took a cooking class onboard and we did Tai Chi on the top deck each morning, over-looking the beauty of the bay.

We then flew to Siem Reap, Cambodia, an in-teresting and welcoming country with a complicated history – and a challenging present. Most visitors to the Siem Reap area come to see the jungle temple of Banteay Chhmar, famous for its sig-nature faces of Jayavarman VII and to see Angkor Wat, the mother of all temples. And so did we. Rising well before dawn, we made our way to Angkor Wat to watch the sun rise over the ruins, which was as spectacular as it was brief – lasting less than five minutes.

One of the highlights of the Cambodia leg of the trip was staying overnight in the Cambodian jungle in a luxury tent – in the midst of temple ruins. As we sat on our deck chairs outside our tent with a cold, local beer (Cambodia is hot!) – and as our chef and his help-ers were busy creating our fabulous dinner feast – we had several of the temple dogs come over and spend time with us. One of them, a blonde female, was initially a bit shy (unlike two of the others who just threw them-selves on us, giving us big doggie kisses). By the time I was ready for my second beer, the shy pup – who I

named Pretty – had become my best friend. She stayed by my side the entire time, laying her head on my leg and nudging my hand to be pet.

We were fed an excel-lent three-course meal – all cooked onsite, in a kitchen set up behind our tent. Our server, a young man named Sovannasey, happily an-swered our questions about his life, the country and his culture. An orphan since birth, this young man told us about his life plans, his dreams and his ambitions – and it was really inspiring. He went out of his way to make our overnight in the jungle something special – helping to create a wonder-ful memory.

Coming home to Cana-da, I felt like I had learned something about Vietnam and Cambodia and the peo-ple who live there. As a side benefit, I also didn’t gain any vacation weight. Seeing the sites is always interest-ing, but the real memories – like the conversations with the women of the hill tribes, where we both realized we aren’t so different from one another, the discussions with

our guide about our respec-tive childhoods, and con-necting with Sovannasey, a young man who has already faced so much hardship and yet is building a bright fu-ture for himself in Cambo-dia – these are experiences that money can’t buy. These

are the experiences that we will remember forever. And, of course, I won’t forget Pretty, the dog. I found out that she belongs to the chef (who takes her everywhere with him) – or she would have been coming home with me…

The months spent with your ex are better forgotten.

You don’t even like to think about them, in fact, and you rarely discuss them. That’s all in the past now, and best that it stay that way. Or is it? What if lessons learned from your ex back then can save the life of someone today? In the new book “X” by Sue Grafton, recovered memo-rabilia leads to an eXtra dis-turbing discovery.

Ruthie Wolinsky was at a

total loss.Recently widowed when

her husband was murdered under shady circumstances, Ruthie was trying hard to clean up his paperwork and get rid of junk. She’d hired someone for the latter, but the former was trick-ier – made more so by the strange call from the IRS, asking for receipts from fif-teen years ago.

Private investigator Kin-sey Millhone had once worked with Ruthie’s late husband and though she was no fan of Pete Wo-linsky, she adored Ruthie and agreed to help. As she waded through moldering boxes in search of old re-ceipts, Kinsey remembered that Pete had been secre-tive so she wasn’t surprised to find a hidden envelope and an odd code. Pete had obviously been working on a case that he wanted kept quiet; that intrigued Kin-sey, who hated unfinished messes.

What else could she do but complete his case – es-pecially since she’d been stiffed by a client who’d lied to her from the start?

The woman said her name was Hallie Bettancourt and that she was looking for someone she’d put up for adoption years before. Bet-tancourt had paid in cash, but the $100 bills were counterfeit and so was her name. It hadn’t been a big job, but Kinsey wanted her money.

The code Pete had fash-ioned was easily broken – Kinsey’s landlord, Henry, loved doing cryptograms – but the names it yielded didn’t make sense. How could a woman long-dead be of any interest to any-one today? And how did Pete end up with a few old pictures and a Bible from a lifetime ago? Better ques-tion: why did someone else want them enough to threat-en Kinsey on her own turf?

My very first thought while reading “X” came to me long before I’d even reached the middle of the first chapter: there’s a lot of filler in this novel. Readers – even those starting this

series from here (and that’s okay, by the way) - don’t generally need a paragraph on the ingredients in bread or on making coffee.

I point this out because the whodunits you’ll find in this latest installment from author Sue Grafton are classic Millhone, but the padding becomes a distrac-tion after awhile. I’m sure I’m not alone in thinking that those pages could have been more mystery and less mud to slog through.

And then again, you’ve read Grafton’s other twen-ty-four books (A through W and short stories). Can you stand to miss this one, the third-from-the-presum-ably-last? No… really, you know you can’t. This is the book mystery fans have been waiting for, and they may otherwise find “X” to be X-cellent.
