As pastor of Trinity Episcopal Church, Rev. George Woodliff is accustomed to praying for others.
But it wasn’t until recently that he understood what it was like to be truly in need of prayer.
After receiving a cancer diagnosis, the active community leader suddenly found himself in a fight for his life. The past six months have been a grueling physical struggle for Woodliff, but he says the spiritual journey has been even more powerful. -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
