Halftime in Belgrade *And an important announcement

At the halftime break, the B-B-E Jaguars girls' basketball team is holding a 29-16 lead after playing some pretty tough defense against Paynesville Area. With 9:36 to go, Bree Thieschafer scored in the paint to give the Jaguars a 13-6 lead.

Tonight's game is being aired on Smooth Magic 107 FM of Glenwood and also 106.5 FM The Train of Norway Lake-Sunburg.

With 12 minutes to go in the second half, the game is tied 31-31.

We interrupt this sports reporting to provide this important community announcement:
Dear Community,
The Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa area has been experiencing a lot of tragedies lately. On Monday this week, we laid to rest the two brothers who passed from a side-by-side accident. Their mother works at B-B-E school. Two traffic accidents have occurred taking the lives of a mother and father leaving behind an orphaned son. The other accident took the life of a mother. The three-year-old was airlifted to Children’s Hospital and will survive. Another mother also lost a son.

To help the B-B-E community, Fr. Greg and I will lead a prayer service at St. Francis de Sales in Belgrade this Sunday, January 28 starting at 3 p.m. Prayers for the community and protection.

Please keep the B-B-E community in your prayers.
God Bless, Fr. Botzet, B-B-E Area Catholic churches
