Christ Church’s Epiphany Group

October 21st, 2010

Christ Episcopal Church in Tyler has recently unveiled a new program. The Epiphany Group is a two tiered class and or outreach to college and post- college age people seeking a more active spiritual life and a community with whom to connect. Father Matt Boulter (assistant rector of Christ Church) directs the groups, which meet Tuesday night on the campus of UT Tyler, and Thursday nights in the Grelling- Spence Building at Christ Church in down town Tyler respectively.

The Epiphany group’s goal is to explore the concept of community as it pertains to the Christian faith. Father Matt leads the group in an investigation of what it means to live a Christian life and participate in a Christian community in the context of a modern society that seeks pull us in many directions at the same time. The group has both a social component, and more formal one. Meaning there are social outings, local outreach projects and classroom style meetings. Being that Christ Church is an Episcopal Church the classes maintain a loose liturgical form, but all Christians (and non-Christians for that matter) are welcome regardless of denominational affiliation, and would be comfortable with the experience. The group is currently beginning a new study of the book of Galatians entitled “Grace Changes Everything: New Freedom, New Family.”

Tyler Veterinary Clinics

August 12th, 2010

When you are trying to find the right veterinary clinic for your animal, it can be frustrating and confusing. Tyler has so many different veterinary clinics and when you choose to take your pet to a horrible one, can be one of the most frustrating things.

One of Tyler’s veterinary clinics I will not take my animals to is Spence & White Veterinary Clinic. I do not know what was the most frustrating thing about the clinic, how rude and short the doctors are to the pet owners, how dirty the office and waiting rooms are, or how they do not care if their other patients are allowing their animals run around the clinic. This has to be one of the worse clinics in Tyler, I have even heard of people’s animals getting attacked by cats at the office and the staff not doing anything about it. It is one of the lowest rated clinics in Tyler, which speaks for itself. The doctors do not take very much time to see your animals and I have heard of many people having to go to different doctors because their animals still had the same problems that they have had when they went to Spence & White.

Tyler does have some great veterinary clinics that people take their animals to and leave impressed by their person doctor, nice staff, and clean offices. Two of these clinics are University Animal Care Clinic and Copeland Road Animal Hospital. University Animal Care Clinic is known for their amazing staff that is very caring for every pet. They do an amazing job when it comes to getting your animals groomed. You feel comfortable leaving your animals in the hands of the staff. Copeland Road Animal Hospital has a great staff that tries to take in any emergency that your pet may have as fast as they can. There really is not much of a wait time at Copeland. They even have supplies and food for your animals for sale for great prices.

Be careful what veterinarian you take your animal to. Though Tyler has some really great vets there are many that do not care about your animal half as much as you do and are not worth your money nor your business.
