First Baptist holds 50th God and Country concert


BELTON — The 50th annual God and Country concert offered a patriotic tonic to a near-capacity crowd Sunday afternoon at the First Baptist Church of Belton.
Directed by Gary Bledsoe, the church’s minister of music, the choir, with an orchestra, combined the worship choirs of the First Baptist Church in Belton, Taylor’s Valley Baptist Church in Temple, First Baptist Church in Temple and Eastside Baptist Church in Copperas Cove.
The choir opened with the “Star-Spangled Banner” and brought the crowd to its feet with its closing song, “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” In between those two songs, the choir performed seven numbers, which were interspersed with five patriotic videos.

Belton Council approves resolution supporting road renaming


BELTON — The Belton City Council unanimously approved a resolution on Tuesday in support of House Bill 523 — legislation that would designate a portion of Loop 121 as “Deputy Sheriff John Rhoden Memorial Highway” if passed.
Rhoden lost his life in the line of duty in April 2020 while he was attempting to lay spike strips along northbound Interstate 35, near the FM 93 exit ramp, when a tractor-trailer struck him. He was 31.
The proposed legislation would also instruct the Texas Department of Transportation to design, construct and erect markers at the end of each section of highway showing the designation.
Belton Mayor Wayne Carpenter — who wrote a letter to State Rep. Hugh Shine, R-Temple, expressing the city’s support for the measure — said it is incredibly important to memorialize “one of our local law enforcement heroes.”
