Two reasons to support hospital levy |
October 31, 2016 |
I am writing in support of the Boundary County
Community Hospital levy on November 8. I do this
for two basic reasons that I hope will also be
the motivation of the members of our county.
The first is the word in the identification of
the hospital: "Community." A vote for this levy
says clearly that we care for our friends and
neighbors in Boundary County. We want the best
possible medical care for them.
Secondly, I write as a follower of Jesus Christ
and want to reach out to all who share that
faith. When Jesus summed up what he wanted of
his followers he said "Love God with all your
heart and your neighbors as yourself."
I can't think of a more profound way to live
that out than to make sure there is adequate
medical care for my neighbors (and myself) when
it is needed.
Ultimately, this is not about money but about
our care and concern for each other. |
