Laurel

Yeah, so most people know we've been going through some land disputes, which finally settled up.

So we officially sold our home in Laurel, Montana, which we live on a flat plain.

Some of it, you know, is graceful.

Most of it isn't usable land and we had no water and it wasn't by choice.

So that's causing a lot of issues.

I guess Montana though, just so everyone's aware, Montana is supposedly not getting a harsh winter, which I would believe it with how the animals are acting.

And there's like knee high green grass at my Laurel house.

Cause we've had so much rain.

A battle between state lawmakers and the city of Laurel over a proposed mental health facility has escalated into accusations of civil rights violations.

According to reporting by the Montana Free Press, members of the legislature's long-range planning interim budget committee voted unanimously to send a letter warning Laurel officials that refusing to annex land and supply water for a planned thirty-two-bed forensic psychiatric facility could violate the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Fair Housing Act.

The committee also recommended withholding state funding from municipalities under discrimination investigations.

Laurel Mayor Chris Vogel pushed back sharply, denying any discrimination.

Vogel stated the city's refusal stems strictly from severe local water infrastructure shortages and an existing annexation freeze, demanding proof of any formal investigation.

And now I guess you could kind of say I'm a part-time evangelist and full-time pastor.

I'm pastoring a small little church, Grace and Truth Community Church in Laurel, Montana, just west of Billings.

But it's kind of a church plant.

But before the church was started, I was full-time evangelism.
