A Better Relationship
Sometimes it’s good to think about the relationships that we have with others. We think about if those relationships are strong or not and whether or not we want to try to strengthen them, or if we want to end them. For many of us, having good relationships is an important part of our lives, our well-being, and our spiritual health also. I say it’s important for our spiritual health because there is no relationship that is more important than the relationship that we have with our God. But, even as I say that relationships are important, I also think we should remember that even more important than relationships are people.

WRAP for Women’s History Month
March is Women’s History Month. Women have made a huge impact on policies and understanding of Domestic Abuse. One group we want to recognize would be the Women from the Duluth Model. The Duluth Model helped to change the way community members think of domestic violence. This model is an inter-agency approach that brings justice, human service, and community interventions together around the primary goal of protecting victims from ongoing abuse. The Duluth Model was started in 1980-1981. Eleven community agencies (police, prosecutors, probation, mental health agencies, as well as others) took part in this experiment. The goal of this experiment was to bring criminal, civil justice, and community agencies together to work in an interrelated way to respond to domestic abuse cases.

My name is Rhonda Miller
My name is Rhonda Miller and I am the Regional Accounting Manager for the Minnesota newspapers, and a few others, owned by CherryRoad Media. My office is located in our St. James site. I have been with the newspaper for almost 30 years and have dabbled in quite a few different rolls along the way. I have always enjoyed helping customers place ads, make payments, and work with them on billing issues or concerns about their ads. It is always a great feeling to help out customers and most times being able to end discussions with smiles and satisfaction.
