She’s a pregnant teen-ager. She
thinks her parents will reject her.
She can’t possibly raise a child. She
needs to know her alternatives.
The Brazos Valley Crisis Preg
nancy Service offers support, educa
tion and other services to pregnant
women.
During the service’s second an
nual Benefit Dinner and Auction at
the Central Baptist Church in Bryan
Saturday night, the Rev. Bill Put
man, author of “Daddy, I’m Preg
nant,” and Kathi Hart, CPS
spokesperson and entertainer, gave
testimonials and advice to those
faced with the problem of unwanted
pregnancies.
Putman, father of five and a min
ister from Boise, Idaho, told how his
family dealt with the pregnancy of
his 14-year-old daughter.
He said the night he and his wife
found out, their daughter entered
their bedroom around 2 a.m. while
they were asleep.
“She was crying,” Putman said.
“She said, ‘Please don’t hate me, but
I’m pregnant.’ ”
He said they embraced their
daughter and told her they didn’t
hate her, but loved her and forgave
her. She decided to go in front of the
church and tell the congregation of
her pregnancy, Putman said.
“That began a wonderful time in
our lives,” he said. “Everyone was
supportive and encouraging. It
brought our whole family closer
together.”
Putman said there was only one
thing wrong with his daughter be
fore her pregnancy.
“She was not with the fellowship
of the Lord,” he said.
More than 200 people were at the
benefit, including members of Ag
gies for Life and Campus Crusade
for Christ. The audience was enthu
siastic and went along with Putman’s
request to repeat his favorite Bible
verse aloud three times.
In the verse, John 14:18, Jesus
says, “I will not leave you desolate or
alone: I will come to you.”
Putman concluded his speech by
saying, “Maybe the only picture we
have of Jesus is in the Bible, but I be
lieve that through this ministry and
through Crisis Pregnancy Service we
can have Jesus step out of the Bible
and into people’s hearts.”
The benefit also presented a video
of Kathi Hart singing “Love Waits.”
The National Christian Council has
chosen it to be its national theme
song, and Crisis Pregnancy
across the country are using
deo as a counseling tool on
nence.
“The song is the perfectpq
of my mother when she was
— when she was pregnantwl|
she said. “My mother consii
abortion, but luckily it was
and not easily obtainable.”
Hart said she’s glad the lawsd
make it easy for her mother to 1
through with that decision. 1
“We are where we areforj’l
on,” she said. “Each of us a
planned project, and so art!
4,000 or more babies tlmi
aborted everyday.”
Phe director of BVCPS, jfl
Bruegger, then discussed somell
ices the center offers young**
needing help.
“What we’re there for is to J
the needs of these girls in atol
we can,” Bruegger said.
The BVCPS offers free;!
nancy tests and information il

young women.
“What we want to do inCrisisl
gnancy Service is to educatel
girls,” Bruegger said, “and well
there to see them through.”

Horses need special care In winter
Horses usually can withstand a lot
of cold, but they are not invincible.
Making sure your horse gets the
winter care he needs can insure a
healthy horse all through the year.
First, make sure your horse gets
annual vaccinations for rhinopneu-
monitis, Eastern and Western equine
encephalomyelitis, equine influenza
and tetanus.
Next, be sure to have his teeth
checked so he can chew his food
properly. This is a time he will need
to burn more energy to stay warm,
therefore you should increase his ra
tions of food.
Also, one of the most important
things to check is that your horse has
a clean, dry, and well ventilated
place to stay. A damp environment
can lead to colds, coughs and viral
infections. Poor ventilation can
cause your horse respiratory dis
eases, such as pneumonia, if the sta
ble is too hot or too tight.
Moist bedding can cause foot in
fection. If you don’t have a barn,
your horse should have at least a

KERRVILLE (AP) — Jury selec
tion begins Monday in three civil
suits filed in connection with the July
1987 church bus accident at a Gua
dalupe River church camp.
Ten Dallas-area teen-agers were
swept away in the rain-swollen river
as the bus and a van tried to flee the
camp, located near Comfort. Res
cuers plucked 33 others from the
river’s bank and from treetops.
Attorneys representing families
who lost children in the incident will
be seeking millions of dollars in
damages for their clients from own
ers and operators of the Pot O’ Gold
Youth Camp.
The bus and van were taking the
43 members of the Seagoville Road
Baptist Church of Balch Springs out
of the camp when they were immo
bilized by a wall of water that swept
down the river during an 11-inch
rain.
Defendants in the suits are Pot O’
Gold Youth Camp; Youth Camps
Inc.; Huisache Avenue Baptist
Church of San Antonio Inc.; the
Rev. Claud J. Bonam, camp adminis
trator; his wife Zelda Bonam, the
camp’s cafeteria manager; and their
son, Claud Bonam Jr.
The suits accuse the defendants of
failing to adequately supervise the
departure of the campers; failing to
establish, maintain and enforce strict
emergency camp safety and evacua
tion procedures; and failing to ad
vise the campers’ parents of the his
torical and commonly accepted
flooding risk of the area.
Four hundred prospective jurors
have been called to the Kerr County
Courthouse for the trial before state
District J udge V. Murray Jordan.
The trial is expected to last three
weeks.
Attorney Mark Nakol of Dallas is
seeking about $5 million on behalf
of John and Rosie Bankston. Their
son, 17-year-old John Bankston, is
the only victim whose body has not
been found.
Suits brought by William and
Brenda Gossett, parents of flood vic
tim Leslie Gossett, 14; and Jerry D.
and Linda Smith, parents of flood
victims Stacey Smith, 16, and Tonya
Smith, 13, also will be heard.
Attorney David Glenn of Dallas,
who represents both families, is
seeking about $3 million in damages
per victim, the San Antonio Express-
News reported.
