For more photos from the costume contest, see Page 7 of the print...
Five weeks ago, I was semi-retired. On Monday, I put out my fourth issue of the Pathfinder with lots of help (the Bournes’) and lots of mistakes (mine). How did this happen...? Anyways, I have used Lovato at Large to talk directly to readers over the decades and I hope to put it to good use here. After about a month in this Shangi La (which is much like the rest of Western Montana), it’s time for me to reflect on a few things. and clarify others. • I am not the new owner. The paper is now owned by Ponderosa Publishing. I am just the edito...

Support for Bill Burt If you feel everything is going along just fine in the Justice of the Peace field in Missoula County, then you should vote for the status quo in the upcoming election. But, if you feel common-sense, compassion, integrity, and fairness should be applied to a much greater extent than it is now, you should consider voting for Bill Burt for Justice of the Peace in Department #1. He has all the traits and background that would enable him to utilize the current jail diversion program without endangering our communities by...

Montana is currently experiencing a crisis in judicial overreach accountability. Last year, Montana state legislators passed multiple laws to protect Montana students, both those in grade school and in college. The laws were designed to ensure students can speak freely on campus, participate in the exchange of ideas, and experience the full benefits of Title IX’s equal protection for female students. However, instead of enforcing these new laws and protecting our students’ constitutional rights, the Montana Federation of Public Employees (MF...

Craig Wilson, Mission Bible Fellowship Each article I have been walking through the Lord’s Prayer phrase by phrase.

Through the Lord’s prayer we learn to look to the Lord and trust in His deliverance over...
