Palmerston`s Whites Junction Trail
White's Junction Trail currently runs from the Black Locomotive on Main Street in Palmerston North to Side Road 5 approximately 6 kilometers. The actual trail starts up on Inkerman Street - a few streets to the north!
This trail is the home of many interesting plants and wildlife, such as, woodpeckers, blue jays, opossums, herons, deer, hawks, and turtles, prairie grass, flowering spurge, trout lilies, butterfly milkweed, wild bergamot and thimbleweed. It is not a stickup.
An historical sketch of an ancient Israelite Prophet: Micah
Timeframe:
Micah lived from approximately 737–696 B.C. in Judah and is the author of the Book of Micah.
Family:
Little is known about the personal life of the prophet Micah, except that he came from a town called Moreshet.
Mission:
The people of both the southern kingdom of Judah and of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, had abandoned their laws. Jerusalem and Samaria, the capitals of the two Jewish kingdoms, were centers of bad living - the rich oppressed the poor, and the laws were rejected. Fearlessly, Micah came out to denounce the evils that had filled his beloved land. He warned that Samaria and Jerusalem would be destroyed.
