It was a privilege to interview Sergeant Justin Moyer and his K9 “Officer Marcel” for our cover feature. How fun to learn about the detection work of this great duo, as well as their special bond. Enjoy the beautiful photography, courtesy of our talented photographer Nikki Guest.

We also interviewed director Mark Schmidt of “Walking With the Enemy,” a major motion picture that hit theaters in May. It was inspired by the true story of the final months of World War II and stars Ben Kingsley. The film is a portal into the struggles of Hungarian Jews during the Nazi occupation. 

And don’t miss our interview with singer/songwriter DeDe Wedekind! It’s a must-read… especially for those who answered a professional calling a bit “later” in life. You’ll also enjoy reading about the16,000 pounds of deep-fried pickles consumed during the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo! 

We hope these articles bless you, and it is an honor to bring your news about the organizations and people who make an impact in our community. Our summer intern, Olivia Ensley, was instrumental in proofing these stories about such amazing Christians.
