Letter: Check on the elderly this Christmas

Tulsa Beacon

During the holiday season, many will struggle with increased feelings of loneliness – especially seniors, who spend more time alone than the average adult. According to Meals on Wheels America, one in four U.S. seniors live alone. Isolation can cause detrimental health issues, including heightened risk of heart disease, dementia and premature death. The holidays…

Letter: Donkey or ‘kangaroo’ party symbol?

Tulsa Beacon

A question – What ever happened to the Demo Donkey symbol for the Democrat Party? It looks like a kangaroo needs to be the new party symbol. That matches the “kangaroo court hearings” they held to impeach President Trump. Trump was looking into an agreement that Nancy Pelosi and her gang wanted in the Middle…

Letter: Island of Peace during the holidays

Tulsa Beacon

As it inevitably does year after year, the holiday season has rolled around to us again.  This year a good friend of mine is experiencing his first “empty” Christmas.  His children either live too far away or are too busy with their own plans and lives to offer him comfort.  He faces this emptiness alone….

Letter: Boston Avenue Methodist and LGBTQ

Tulsa Beacon

Almost every day we hear of bizarre happenings taking place in the world.  Usually these things happen in some distant city or faraway nation – rarely do they happen in our own backyard.

In a surprising move, Chick-fil-A caved in to the LGBTQ+ mob and decided to stop donating money to the Salvation Army and Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Why did they do this you ask?  It is because the LGBTQ+ mob says the Salvation Army and Fellowship of Christian Athletes discriminates against persons who claim to be…

Letter: Media ignored Obama’s mistake

Tulsa Beacon

On October 27, President Trump announced that U.S. Special Operation Forces executed a daring night raid on ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s headquarters in northwest Syria, and the 48-year-old ISIS leader was killed.  This was good news for the whole world.  But the news media has been silent about Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi being released from…

The U.S. Labor Department recently reported the unemployment rate in the United States has dropped to a 50-year low of 3.5%.  More than 6.1 million new jobs have been created (created not saved) since President Trump took office in January 2017.  In addition, the stock market (Dow Jones Industrial Average) has grown from 18,142 on…
