Healing Springs Country
Store |

Ralph & Ruth Ellen
Dickerson
Owners of the
Healing
Springs Country Store, just outside of Blackville, SC.
It is one of our most favorite places to go, when we go to the
natural healing springs called "God's Acre" to get the
free to the public water. The water at Healing Springs
is reported to be revered by the Indians during the
Revolutionary War.
We always stop by the quaint
little country store, where they have homemade breads, and
other goodies for sale. You will think you have stepped
back in time in this old fashioned store. There is
sliced cheese, sliced straight off of the big hoop.
There are children's bible story books, and jars of old
fashioned and canned goodies, and everything from homemade
dandelion jelly to pickled pigs feet. A unique old
fashioned novelty store. All sorts of homemade items and
foods that will bless you. Go by and see them
today. In season, there are also fresh vegetables for
sale.
They are located on Hwy 3, heading north out of Blackville, SC. Click on the
link above for more

Welcome
to
The Light of the
Lowcountry Magazine
"An Online Interactive Christian Magazine "
MISSION STATEMENT Everyday it is becoming more and more
evident that the evils of the world are being promoted by the mass
media~ in music, radio, tv, satellite, and in magazines, books, and
many other publications. Family values are swiftly eroding. Suppertime, mama's homemade biscuits, & saying Grace, have all but disappered from the homes of most Americans. We are committed to help bring back these family values!
ABOUT US We are
a hardcopy as well as web interactive magazine, with a Christian Focus.
We have different contributing writers from all over the
US, and a few from other countries . We want our readers to contribute to this magazine,
shining forth from the SC Lowcountry to all of the US and the
world! Jesus IS the true light of the world, but he said for
us to let OUR lights shine also, to bring glory to the Father
through others seeing our good deeds. So, we are letting our light
shine, how about you? Also, don't forget to support our
sponsors by clicking on their business links.
We
are also on the cutting edge of technology,
folks. You get free membership into our online
FORUM, so be sure to go to
our Forum page to get registered for free. The
links are also on our INTERACTIVE PAGE, as well as on the
lefthand menu here! We will be adding many new
forums as the need arises, and we have many LOCAL Bulletin
Boards for everyone to enjoy. However, there are other
forums which are for everyone from all over the USA.
Our magazine is dedicated to helping to spread
the gospel of Jesus Christ through the printed word and help
combat the evil that we are being assaulted with as one nation under
GOD through the use of the media. We will do all
we can to help preserve Christian family values, and fight
for our swiftly disappearing Constitutional rights as Americans, as
one nation under GOD.
Our base of operations is in the
SC Lowcountry, Bamberg, SC, but our magazine is a shining light, not just to the S.C. Lowcountry, but to all
of SC and far beyond, with local, national & international contributing writers . Through us the LIGHT of Jesus
Christ will be shed abroad in the hearts of all of our readers
across the US and in other countries. Let us never forget that
Jesus is the TRUE LIGHT of the world, so don't be afraid to let your
light shine!
John
8:12: "I am the light of the world; he that followeth me...shall
have the light of life."
Matthew
5:16: "In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they
may see your good deeds and praise your Father in
heaven."
