			<description><![CDATA[ Our friend Jim Huff will be speaking on church/state issues at a town hall meeting in Ponca city on May 28 at the St. Paul Methodist church.  The meeting will
begin at 7 PM.  I don&#39;t know the address of the church, but a press release is supposed to be coming, so I figure it&#39;ll have the address.  I&#39;ll
pass it on if and when I get it.
