(Re)Introducing SonRise Baptist Church
Rapids Street Baptist Church recently changed its name to SonRise Baptist Church.
We chose our new name to place our focus on our purpose and our message rather than just our location.
Why Our New Name “SonRise?”
We chose our new name to reflect the true focus of our congregation – Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who died for the sins of the world and rose again.
SON: Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is our focus, and the focus of the Christian faith. Jesus, as the Son of God, is the second person of the trinity. He, as God, took on flesh and became a human being (we celebrate this coming as “Christmas”). The Bible makes it clear that Jesus did take on flesh to be the Lamb of God, becoming the sacrifice on the cross to pay for the sins of the world.
RISE: Jesus died to pay for the sins of the world. He was buried in a borrowed tomb. As He promised, three days later, He rose from the dead. His rising from the dead proved He was who He said He was (the Son of God, and the Savior promised in the Old Testament). His rising from the dead proved that He did what He said He would do – become the Savior from sin to all who believe in Him. His rising from the dead guarantees the resurrection of all people. His resurrection proves that His death did pay for our sins, and that those who believe in Him are saved from their sins.
SonRise: We combined these two words for a play on words. A sunrise is the beginning of a new day. The risen Jesus brings new life to anyone who believes in Him. The risen Jesus brings light (truth) to anyone who believes in Him.
Kevin Subra has served as our interim pastor since February of 2023. He and his wife Jane were part of this church family way back in the mid-1980s when Kevin was attending college. Jane’s connection goes back even further, as her father (Bill Wright) grew up in Adel, and her mother Joan Orr taught in Adel schools. Her grandfather, Doc Wright, was a dentist in Adel for around 50 years.
Kevin’s passion is teaching the Bible clearly and accurately. It is the desire and prayer of Kevin – who has pastored for over 30 years – to help strengthen SonRise in its ministry and focus in Adel and surrounding communities. Kevin is assisted by David Chambers (wife Pam), who recently moved to Adel from Ankeny.
We invite both the committed and the curious to visit us and serve with us. We currently meet on Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM to sing and study in our auditorium. We have a treat and fellowship time (coffee, tea, snacks) and then meet for a more informal study time around 11 AM in our fellowship hall. You can find SonRise Baptist Church at 1601 Rapids Street in Adel.

Jean Barrett Obituary – Visitation Dec 20th
Jean Marie Barrett, 65, passed away with family by her side through it all on December 3, 2023, at UCSD Hospital in La Jolla, California.
She was born August 29, 1958, to John Melvin and Jean Moorman (Liggit) Dunleavy in Ames, Iowa.
Jean graduated from Ames High School and married her high school sweetheart, Michael Barrett in 1978. 5 years and 4 children later, they moved to Adel, Iowa which they called home for the last 38 years. Mike and Jean most recently celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary.
Jean dedicated her life to her husband, kids, grandkids, and countless friends she’s made over the last 65 years. When asked what she wanted to be when she grows up, her response was simply the best, “I want to be a mom.” Jean will be remembered for her love of all those near and dear to her. Jean showed unconditional love to all who needed it and freely gave it. She was a mom to all. Jean’s positive energy shined no matter what she was going through.
She was a lover of nature, gardening, and healthy living. Jean found beauty in each and every lesson that life threw her way because they made her grow and become a better person for it. She had a way with words; knowing just what to say because she spoke from her heart. Jean knew how to make you feel special. She loved cheering her kids and grandkids on with all of their activities. Close to her heart was her rescue dog, Maggie. Her snuggles will be deeply missed.
Left to cherish her memory: husband, Mike; children, Joel (Erica) Barrett of Pella, Nick (Rae Ann) Barrett of Ankeny, Lindsay (Ryan) Knight of Waukee and Suzanne (Nick) Talley of Adel; grandchildren Alison, Donovan, Ashley, Hailey, Carter, Barrett, Graham and Nora; siblings, John (Linda) Dunleavy, Linda (Ron) Christianson, and Mary Dunleavy. As well as many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her mother and father, Jean Moorman and John Melvin Dunleavy. Mother and father-in-law Bonnie Laura and John Marvin Barrett.
Visitation will be Wednesday, December 20, 2023, from 4 – 7 PM at Caldwell Parrish Funeral Home, 735 S 14th St., Adel, Iowa.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions will be directed to AHeinz57 Pet Rescue and The La Jolla Family House.

Remembering Nile Kinnick’s Heisman Trophy Speech Dec 06
Today marks the 84th Anniversay of Nile Kinnck’s Heisman Trophy Speech. December 6th. 1939.
Remembering Nile Kinnick on the anniversary of his iconic Heisman speech – KCCI
“ADEL, Iowa — It was Dec. 6, 1939, when Adel native and Hawkeyes football star Nile Kinnick received the Heisman Trophy.
Kinnick delivered an acceptance speech that night at the Downtown Athletic Club in New York that has become part of Hawkeyes lore. The speech is now played over the loudspeaker before each home game at Kinnick Stadium.
“I thank God I was warring on the gridirons of the Midwest and not on the battlefields of Europe. I can speak confidently and positively that the players of this country would much more, much rather struggle and fight to win a Heisman award than a Croix de Guerre,” said Kinnick, who at that point said he planned to join the Naval Air Service after graduation.
Kinnick died less than four years later when, in June 1943, his plane experienced engine issues during a training flight and crashed off the coast of Venezuela. He was just 24.
Watch the video to learn more about Nile Kinnick and a documentary about him that was released last year.”
ISU Protect Trees and Shrubs from Winter Damage
Trees and shrubs are susceptible to damage from animals, snow, and salt.
AMES, Iowa – As leaves and temperatures fall, trees and shrubs in the home landscape become increasingly at risk for damage from animals, snow load, salt, sunscald, and desiccation.
Fortunately, there is still time to protect trees and shrubs from winter damage.
Aaron Steil, consumer horticulture specialist with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, provides tips for preventing tree and shrub injury this winter in a guide from the Home and Horticulture Pest News website.
Animal Damage For many Iowans, damage from hungry wildlife during winter is a primary concern. The usual suspects, deer, and rabbits, tend to feed on trees and shrubs during periods of prolonged snow cover, when food is scarce. Rabbits often damage trees and shrubs by feeding on the inner bark of the plant, which disrupts the flow of food from the top of the tree to the roots. On the other hand, deer tend to strip foliage from the lower branches of evergreen trees such as arborvitae and pines.
According to Steil, the best way to prevent damage from occurring is to place a physical barrier around trunks or lower branches, preventing wildlife from accessing vulnerable plants.
To prevent deer damage, protective wrappings should be at least 6 feet tall. “Tubes, wraps, wire fencing, and wire cylinders can be placed seasonally around individual trees and shrubs to physically exclude and prevent deer from browsing,” writes Steil. “They are most effective on smaller, younger plants that are more susceptible to significant damage from deer feeding.”
To prevent rabbit damage, chicken wire or hardware cloth fencing at least 24 to 36 inches tall should be wrapped around the base of the plant. “To prevent rabbits from crawling underneath the fencing, pin the fencing to the soil with U-shaped anchor pins,” he adds.
Steil also notes that certain species of tree and shrub are more susceptible to rabbit and deer damage, and these species should be prioritized. A list of plants susceptible to rabbit damage is available from the Extension Home and Horticulture Pest News Website, as is a list of plants susceptible to deer damage. Visit the article How to Protect Trees and Shrubs from Animal Damage Over Winter for more information on managing and preventing winter damage due to wildlife.
Snow and Ice Injury As heavy, wet snow accumulates on branches, it can cause them to bend, buckle and snap. To remove snow, gently shake the tree or shrub or use a broom to sweep the snow off, being careful to sweep with an upward motion to prevent further stress on the branches. Small evergreens, such as arborvitae, can be wrapped with twine or rope in the fall to prevent snow from accumulating.
When it comes to ice damage, there is little that can be safely done. For smaller trees and shrubs, branches laden with ice can be gently propped up to ease stress. For larger trees, however; Steil notes that any attempt to remove ice will likely result in more harm than good.
“Don’t attempt to remove the ice by beating the branches with a broom or rake. This will only cause greater damage,” he says. “Individuals should stay away from large, ice-laden trees, as they can be severely injured or killed if a large tree or branch were to suddenly crash to the ground while underneath it.”
Deicing Salts While de-icing salts are important for preventing injury due to slips and falls, it is essential that they are applied only as needed, since these salts can cause damage to concrete and landscape plants. To avoid this damage, Steil suggests that homeowners wait until precipitation has ended, then remove as much snow and ice from concrete surfaces as possible before applying salt. Salt can also be mixed with abrasive materials, such as salt or kitty litter, at a ratio of one pound of salt to fifty pounds of abrasive material to decrease the risk of damage.
For more information on de-icing salts and the symptoms of salt damage in plants, visit the article Using Deicing Salts in the Home Landscape.
Sunscald and Desiccation Evergreens can lose a significant amount of water through their leaves during the winter due to strong winds and intense winter sun. Once the ground freezes, these plants can no longer take up water to replace what is lost through the leaves, leading to winter dieback. To prevent desiccation injury, susceptible plants should be thoroughly watered in the fall until the ground freezes. Screens or shields can also be constructed to deflect sun and wind during the winter.
According to Steil, intense winter sun can also result in sunscald, which is characterized by sunken, dried, or cracked areas of bark, typically on the southwest side of the tree. The warm sun causes areas of the bark to unfreeze, but as the sun sets and temperatures fall, the tissue refreezes and is killed. To prevent this damage, wrap trees with plastic guards or tree wrap in the fall, then remove the wrapping in spring.
The winter months can be a stressful time for trees and shrubs in the home landscape. However, through mindful management, the effects of this stress can be managed to ensure that landscape plants thrive year-round.

Adel Historic Museum Hosts River to River Retro Road Trip
Annually, the River to River Retro Road Trip begins in Davenport and ends in Council Bluffs, following Historic US Route 6 across Iowa over four days.
This year’s trip saw about 40 cars with drivers and some passengers make the trek September 14-17, 2023.
No Interstates, No Chain Restaurants, Just Mom & Pops and Two-Lane Blacktop is the plan. One of the stops this year was at Adel’s Historic Museum Saturday morning, touring the two-story building and the Clarke-Kinnick Addition.
The Museum found it had a copy of a booklet of a previous River to River Retro Road Trip from 1910, surprising this year’s trip organizers Casey McCallister and Vince Wallerich.
While the visitors enjoyed tours of the Museum, area residents could view the many antique cars parked on nearby streets.
One car of note was not an antique but was specially decorated with the River to River logo displayed by Margaret Baumann from Rockford, Illinois, and her daughter.
Pictured, left to right, in front of the special River to River car are Margaret Baumann and Rex and Shelley Martin from Marion, Iowa.
Hostesses pictured, left to right, with River to River Retro Road Trip organizers were Cathy Jorgensen, Bev Carrico, Nadine Law, Vince Wallerich, Becky Dymond, and Casey McCallister. Conducting tours but not pictured were Mary Ockerman and Karen Smith.

Audie Carman to Be Inducted into Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame
Audie Carman of Dallas County will be inducted into the 2023 Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame during a ceremony at the 4-H Exhibits Building at the Iowa State Fair on Sunday, August 20.
Audie Carman will be recognized at 1:30 p.m. A reception will follow the presentations.
What started as a simple question “What can I help with” turned into 15 years of volunteering as Swine superintendent for Audie Carman. He had many challenges along the way including having to quarantine all the pigs for 30 days due to an outbreak of erysipelas during the fair.
Even after Audie was no longer superintendent, he continued to support 4-H members by helping to get concrete in the swine barn, build rabbit cages and sponsor trophies for the fair. Dallas County 4-H would like to that Audie for all his years of service.
“Counties select inductees for their exceptional work in contributing to the lives of 4-H members and the overall 4-H program,” said Ann Torbert, regional director. Many inductees served as club leaders, youth mentors, fair superintendents or fair board members, Iowa State University Extension council members, county youth council members, fair judges, financial supporters, chaperones, or ISU Extension staff members. The inductees have demonstrated dedication, encouragement, commitment, and guidance to Iowa’s 4-H’ers through the years.
“Iowa 4-H volunteers and staff greatly impact our youth, and this is one way we can recognize them for their remarkable service and commitment,” said Tillie Good, staff and volunteer development manager, Iowa 4-H Youth Development.
The Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame was initiated in 2002 to help commemorate the 100th anniversary of 4-H. A summary of previous honorees will be on display at the 2023 Iowa State Fair in the 4-H Exhibits Building.
Information about previous inductees to the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame also is available on the Iowa 4-H Foundation website, organized by year and by county. Go to http://www.iowa4hfoundation.org/ and select “What we do” followed by “Recognizing Service”

Adel Rotary Provides $1,200 for Books at Meadow View School
The Rotary Club of Adel President Bob Grove presented a check for $1,200 to ADM Meadow View Elementary School Principal Jodi Banse at its May 31 meeting to provide books for a new book vending machine.
The vending machine doesn’t take money, though; students earn coins that allow them to choose a book as a reward for various academic, leadership, and character achievements throughout the year.
“The book vending machine matches the values of Meadow View as it promotes the love of reading!” Says Principal Banse.
Students are excited about choosing their own books to keep that they have earned. The book vending machine is a fun way to celebrate reading.
The machine has colored LED lights and talks when the coin is inserted, offering worlds of celebration.
Adel Rotary has long provided funds for literacy programs at ADM Schools and is pleased to support this innovative way to encourage more reading at Meadow View.

Good Nutrition on a Budget
Adel, Iowa – A Good Nutrition on a Budget class was held on January 17th at the St. Olivet Lutheran Church in Perry, IA.
This class was in partnership with the Perry Food Pantry, which provides food security assistance to residents of Perry.
This class was attended by eight participants as well as two of the class’s organizers [Lois Hoger (Pantry Director) and Rosa Gonzalez (Human Sciences Extension Field Specialist), pictured]. Childcare and Spanish interpretation services were offered; however, these services were not utilized during this class. Participants also had the choice of a Venison Bean Soup, Vegetable Bean Soup, and refreshments to enjoy during the presentation.
Good Nutrition on a Budget is a cost-free class that teaches strategies for menu planning, smart shopping, using USDA’s MyPlate as a guideline for healthy eating, increasing physical activity, and incorporating delicious, nutritious recipes into their diet.
The participants were engaged, asked questions, expressed appreciation, and communicated interest in future programming. Beyond the Good Nutrition on a Budget presentation, several of the class participants were interested in a cooking demonstration so I provided a vegetable cutting demonstration, gave cooking tips, and talked through the basics of foodsafe practices. Participants also asked for meal-planning tips in single-person households, so at the end of the class we played a 15-minute Mini-Lesson of “Cooking For One Or Two” from our Stay Independent course.
Iowa State University Extension and Outreach of Dallas County purchased and donated forty Healthy and Homemade Cookbooks to the Perry Food Pantry: twenty of them in English, and twenty in Spanish. Participants of this class received a no-cost cookbook to take home, with the remaining cookbooks being made available for clients at the Perry Food Pantry. Additionally, participants took home a no-cost bimetallic stemmed thermometer to aid their home food safety, courtesy of ISU Department of Human Sciences.
Healthy and Homemade Cookbooks are available on the Extension Store in English, Spanish, as a monthly calendar, and as a cookbook for children. To learn more: Healthy & Homemade Cookbook – A collection of recipes from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach (iastate.edu)
