Get Health Coverage NOW!

If you or someone you love doesn't have health insurance, COA can help. 

On the morning of Monday, Nov. 3, a representative from WellCare will be at Dwier assisting with Medicaid & Obamacare enrollment. 

Medicaid is now available for single people and marrieds without children, in addition to families with children; it's free for anyone making less than $15,500 per year. COA will help you fill out the paperwork, and get your documents together. Most people qualify for some type of low or no-cost plan, so it's worth coming in to check it out. 

If you would like to take advantage of this FREE assistance, please RSVP tocityofangelsnj@hotmail.com - we need to get some idea of how many people will be coming so we can plan.

Dear subscriber,

Prescription drug abuse is a huge problem everywhere, but especially in Orange County, California. I know this because that’s where I grew up and played high school varsity baseball. I witnessed this abuse among my peers and in my own family, and I wanted to do something about it.

So I worked to educate my community about the risks of medicine abuse, joining with my local police department to promote prescription drug take-back days. That’s why it was awesome to receive the Play Healthy Award from the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids and Major League Baseball (MLB) Charities last year, winning a trip to New York City and meeting people who shared the same passion in helping others.

Now, I want to pay it forward and ask you to nominate a student athlete and/or youth coach for the 5th Annual Commissioner’s Play Healthy Awards. Do you know that kid on the team who is super focused on being healthy to achieve his dream of playing pro ball? What about the coach who makes you feel that you are going to play the best game of your life, just because you can? If so, get involved now and tell us why that special person is making a difference.


Hurry - the deadline to submit a nomination is Friday, October 31st, 2014!

Good luck,

Garrett Burk

October 20 Chp 41 v 6 TWELVE STEPPING WITH STRENGTH FROM THE PSALMS


They visit me as if they were my friends,but all the while they gather gossip ,and when they leave ,they spread it everywhere . (Gods Big Book )


Step 6 - Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.


I had no idea they had AA and NA groups three thousand years ago . The scripture is describing what used to be my home group. Step six is a double edged sword ! Is it you or someone else that is doing all the talking !When we are in the rooms some of the stuff that is shared can be rough but it is not a conservation piece for the next time you are waiting in line at the Dunking Donuts .We share that stuff to get out from under guilt and shame and you need to respect the guidelines ! What is said here stays here ! Being reckless with someones pain could put them right back on the relapse roller coaster . Do you want to be responsible for buying that ticket !This was one of those things I struggled with .I could not keep my mouth shut and I could not wait to air your dirty laundry out . Silence and respect are character traits that do not come naturally ,they have to be developed . Respect yourself and respect others . KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT !


Proverbs 21:23 He who guards his mouth and his tongue, Guards his soul from troubles.(Gods Big Book)
