Pedaling pastor finds new path to God
Des Moines pastor Rev George Mason aged 65 rides for soul and body. He completed a 2600 mile cross country trip with 32 bicyclists from San Diego to Jacksonville Beach starting April 2 and ending May 6. The Wandering Wheels group supported by Calvin Manor residents built fellowship and shared hardship during the trek. Mason retired from Clifton Heights Presbyterian Church in 1965 after 27 years. He may bicycle again despite cost.

Bishop condemns capital punishment as savage act
Brooklyn's Roman Catholic Bishop Francis Murgavero calls capital punishment savage and ineffective at deterring crime in a pastoral letter. He warns it would fuel dehumanization and urges a summit with the governor and mayor to address crime, drugs, poverty, education, and moral decline.
