Local children’s ministry, C.O.O.L. (Children of our Lord) Kids, founded by NaKina Talbert and her husband Tom, recently hosted a Christmas party for 105 underserved children. This was the fourth Christmas celebration hosted by the Talberts, but it was the first one held in Garland.
In all, 210 children were served this holiday season, which includes gifts delivered to a group of Taiwanese refugee children. The couple recently moved its ministry to South Garland after research showed that numerous programs serve inner city children, but there aren’t many in the suburbs. “When a family is living in poverty they are typically in survival mode,” Talbert said. “They have little time or energy to focus on their children’s spiritual, educational or emotional needs.”
C.O.O.L. Kids is a Christian ministry that children can attend Saturday mornings and get a hot breakfast, have Bible study, receive mentoring, do arts and crafts, play games and get one on one attention. Talbert believes that this shows them that people care and gives them hope for a better future. The children can also get free used clothing and shoes, school supplies, and a take home lunch, as most of them are on the assisted lunch program during the week but may only eat one meal a day on weekends.
Elks Lodge #1984 provided the space for this year’s party. “This is the first year the Elks have been involved but it will not be the last,” Talbert said.
The organization had lost its venue four weeks before the party and the members of the Elks Lodge offered their facility. After hearing more about what the children’s ministry was doing, the lodge had toy and food drives and collected more than 200 toys and many pounds of food. They also supplied volunteer staff, raised monetary donations, provided pizza for the party, along with storage and drop off for donations, and gave lots of moral support. The Elks have also agreed to let C.O.O.L. Kids use the lodge for its weekly ministry as well as for other events.
The families that benefit from the party are either living in section 8 or government subsidized housing or in shelters. They register each child at least a month in advance. “The Lord brings them to me…I don’t know how else to describe it other than that,” Talbert said.
Talbert found out about a section 8 complex near the lodge and went to speak to the manager. “When I walked in the office she was talking with someone about how there were 40 families in the complex that would not have a Christmas this year,” she said. “It’s a God thing.”
A complex that houses Taiwanese refugee families also contacted her and asked for help. “It took us from over 100 on our list to over 200,” she said. “But we knew if God brought them to us then He would provide, and He sure did.”
All the children at the party received a bag of gifts and a Build A Bear and enjoyed making Christmas ornaments, decorating cookies, and having their picture taken with Santa.
The ministry received lots of help from Firewheel Church families who sponsored more than 150 of the kids’ wish lists; Allen’s Norton Elementary School; Plano’s Lifepoint Church; Advantage Storage and Walgreen’s, both in Sachse; Wounded Warriors of Texas; residents in Woodbridge; Terri Jackson and Control Manufacturing; Kathy Senase and her team at AT&T; and the Bys family who raised 125 Build A Bears. They are also grateful for the help of Rhanda and Nicole Holden and Patrick and Chrissy Wallis and family, along with countless other volunteers too numerous to mention.
“But mostly, thanks to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for allowing us to serve Him,” Talbert said.
CAUSE OF MIKE SCACCIA’S DEATH REVEALED, AL JOURGENSEN ISSUES STATEMENT
Posted by Zach Shaw on Mon, Dec 24, 2012 at 10:55 am
The metal community was shocked this past weekend by the sudden death of Mike Scaccia. Initially, it was reported that the guitarist had suffered a seizure caused by strobe lights while performing with Rigor Mortis this past Saturday night (December 22). However, according to the Tarrant County medical examiner’s office, Scaccia’s death onstage was actually caused by a heart attack brought on by heart disease.
Scaccia’s Rigor Mortis bandmate Bruce Corbitt confirmed the update via the following post on Facebook:
“Please everyone… I know there has been so many rumors and reasons that Mike passed away. This stuff about strobe lights is totally false. I wanted to wait for the official cause of death to be released. But I already knew when it happened. Here is the official word… RIP Mike Scaccia. SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH Due to: ATHEROSCLEROTIC AND HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE”
Corbitt has been paying tribute to his fallen bandmate by sharing numerous anecdotes andvintage photos via his personal Facebook account. The singer also revealed plans to launch an online fundraiser and hold a tribute show in support of Scaccia’s family. Ministry mainman Al Jourgensen also shared his thoughts on the death of his longtime friend and collaborator via the following statement:
“I just lost my lil’ brother and my best friend. The 13th Planet compound is devastated, completely in shock and shattered. Mikey was not only the best guitar player in the history of music, but he was a close, close, close part of our family — and I just lost a huge chunk of my heart today. Our lives are forever changed. Life without Mikey is like orange juice without pulp — kind of bland. I have no words to express what this guy meant to me, my family, my career… everything!
Get to know his lead parts — for they are in the pantheon of music! Unfortunately, most of you didn’t get to know Mikey’s soul — which is in the pantheon of humanity. He is my hero, my friend and my idol. Mikey was always beside me — my right-hand man — through thick and thin, the good, the bad, the ugly and the beautiful.
Rest in peace my brother, my friend, my heart. Please pray for Mike Scaccia and Jenny, his wife and their children, and his family.”
Officials reportedly ruled Scaccia’s passing as a natural death. Scaccia was 47 years old. He is survived by his wife by Jenny Rowen Scaccia and their two daughters Sarah and Taarna.
