Pastor James Gravelle of Tazewell Church of Christ notes it helps outsiders locate the church and share sermon outlines with area ministers. Gravelle’s site, launched Sept 7, has drawn about 900 visits, aided by listing in about 100 search engines. Conley adds email strengthens ministry links and mentions Ecunet for global, ecumenical outreach.

Civil trial shifts focus to OJ Simpson credibility
Nicole Simpson’s mother cried on the stand but her heart wrenching testimony was cut by hearsay rules in the criminal trial. Jurors did not hear her account of Simpson whispering I’m so sorry Nicki over the coffin. The civil case now pivots to Mr Simpson’s credibility as the defense argues racism and police contamination influenced jurors. LAPD witnesses moved swiftly on and off the stand in the civil proceedings.
