First do no harm

Casey2021-09-16T07:25:22-05:00September 16th, 2021|

There is a Latin phrase that goes “primum non nocere”. The English translation is “first do no harm”. This is meant to be guidance to physicians. They need to be sure that their words and actions are not producing harm to their patients. It is an extension of the Hippocratic Oath that we all said out loud at medical school graduation. That oath is the standard for ethical behavior by physicians. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 crisis has brought out some behaviors in physicians that are less than admirable. Vaccines are effective. Science says that they are safe. Therefore, ethical behavior means physicians should support the vaccines. That has not always been the case. The Federation of State Medical Boards oversees medical licensing boards in each state. On July 29, they issued a statement. It said: “Physicians who generate and spread COVID-19 vaccine misinformation or disinformation are risking disciplinary action by state medical boards, including the suspension or revocation of their medical license. . .

Mount Olivet services turn to the book of James

Mount Olivet services will turn to the book of James, which reminds us that our faith and our actions are inseparable. What we do, and the way that we treat each other, is the shape of our faith in the world. Sept. 19- James 3:1-12 Sept. 26 - James 3:13-4:3,7-8 Members of Mount Olivet have been donating school supplies for students as they get ready to go back-to-school. The administration and teachers of Central Elementary School were grateful for the blessing of books and school supplies (and prayer!) that will help them kick off the 2021-2022 school year. Additional donations for the food pantry were also collected at the same time as school supplies. A group of Mount Olivet women have been making and delivering 50 sandwiches to Love, INC. weekly for distribution. The church is [...]
