MEET YOUR AMBASSADORS
Judy Gigi Barnett
G
igi isnt just her grandmother name. She
always wanted to be Gi-Gi, like in the movie
with Leslie Caron, so when social media
came along, she took Gigi as her Facebook name.
Many new friends think that is her name!
Someone said a few days ago, Ive known Gigi
so long that her name used to be Judy.
Judy is a native of Cleburne and a graduate
of Cleburne High School many, many years ago.
She and her husband raised four children in
Cleburne. She is a member of First Christian
Church.
Joining the Cleburne chamber recently I have
a renewed interest in what is going on in Cleburne
and the future growth of our city and county, she
said.
In 2015 she partnered with two dermatologists
who created the world-renown ProActiv product for
skin care acne issues. The doctors went on the cre-
ate Rodan + Fields premium skincare regimens
that address anti-aging, sun damage, sensitive
skin, and acne and acne scarring.
Rodan + Fields is a home-based business
which gives flexibility and time freedom which is
just perfect for a busy gal who enjoys volunteering
at the Plaza Theatre Co. and the Greater Cleburne
Carnegie Players.

First Christian Church to celebrate 150 years
I
n 1867 Camp Henderson was a small
settlement on the banks of Buffalo
Creek. In April of that year it was
named Cleburne and designated the
county seat. In the same year, the
Christian Church was organized by Elder
B.F. Hall and a handful of faithful believ-
ers.
The first meetings were held in mem-
bers homes and monthly in the Court
House. The silver communion service in
the glass cabinet in our foyer was donat-
ed to the church by Major and Mrs. E.M.
Heath and was used for weekly commu-
nion during that period.
In February 1880 land was purchased
and the First Christian Church was built
on West Wardville Street at a cost of
$2,000. A belfry was constructed in
front of the church and bell was rung on
Sundays for the call to worship. That
same bell hangs on the rock sign in front
of the current church. It has been a part
pf all four churches.
By 1890 the membership had grown
to over 100, with Sunday school atten-
dance of 60 to 70 members. The minis-
ter was Elder H.H. Whitlock and the
Sunday School Superintendent was
Elder C.L. Heath.
1902 and 1903 were exciting years for
the First Christian Church of Cleburne.
A new church building was built on the
lot West of the existing church and
dedicated. The new church hosted a
thanksgiving service for all the churches
in Cleburne. In December of 1903 the
State Lectureship of the Christian Church
convened at Cleburne for a four-day served the Church in its early years. homecoming celebration was held and

uously held elder positions in the church.
During this decade, the congregation
once again began to consider building a
new and more up to date church facility.
The first church built in 1880 on West
Wardville Street was replaced by a sec-
ond structure built on an adjacent lot.
Some parts of the first church were used
in constructing the second church. One
distinct difference was the beautiful
stained glass windows in the second
church.
The fourth and current church at 200
South Nolan River Road was finished in
May of 1986, and on Sunday, Mothers
Day the 11th of May the first worship
service was held in the new sanctuary.
In 2004 money for a new playground
was left to the church by long term
church member and Texas Ranger Ed
Gooding. Also included were trees that
have now grown to shade the play-
ground
In 2005 Sunday Service attendance
had drastically declined, and a small
group of church leaders in search of
some guidance attended a Leadership
meeting at Granbury First Christian
Church. While the lessons were infor-
mative the truly inspiring event occurred
when they saw a small prayer garden on
the grounds.
The group decided it needed a proj-
ect to work on together and the idea of
a prayer garden project was born.
Memorial donations in memory of Faye
Meyer and Bob Middleton along with
the groups labor the project was com-
pleted. Some believe that the church
growth that occurred afterword was the
results of the congregational project.
We exist to Love All, Serve All, and
Pray for All. We are Kingdom Builders.
Happy Birthday Cleburne, its your
celebration also.

Missing Man Table
O
nce again, the Cleburne Chamber of Commerce
is happy and proud to show off our sincerest
appreciation and support to all of our military
men and women service members and veterans.
We are about to display our very own Missing Man
Table in the lobby of the chamber at 1511 W. Henderson
St.
The Missing Man Table is viewed in a variety of
public venues and can be an extremely emotional and
personal experience. Its incorporation into military and
civilian events is for specific purposes.
These purposes, among others, do include remem-
bering lost or fallen comrades, helping to educate young
adults and children of the sacrifices many of our service
members have made, and helping individuals make con- Courtesy photo

The primary purpose of this display is not solely in
support of our Military Service Members, but also to
honor and respect those families who have either had a
relative lost in combat, or those who remain Missing in
Action MIAs to this very day, and to those who
were held captive as Prisoners of War POWs hence
the Missing Man Table, also known as the Missing
Comrades Table.
All are encouraged to drop by the chamber to witness
and show respect for our military heroes. Any of our
chamber member businesses are welcome to arrange for
the display to be set up in their own businesses for a
period of time.

HC, Texas Tech partner on academics
By Ashley Rose

P
aying for college is no easy feat,
especially when students arent sure
whether to start at a community col-
lege and transfer later or start at the uni-
versity level in the beginning.
Texas Tech University partnered with
Hill College in April 2016, and officials
said they have already seen many stu-
dents enter the program.
Texas Tech Waco campus Director
Lewis Snell discussed the partnership and
different scholarship opportunities for
students who transfer from Hill to Tech
after they earn their associates degree
during a recent Cleburne Rotary Club
weekly luncheon.
Students attending Hill can now earn
three different bachelor degrees from
Texas Tech in many areas, including gen-
eral studies, human sciences and applied
leadership.
Snell said the idea is for the student to
choose three stackable areas of study
while attending Hill so they will be able
study in multiple areas.
When he graduated from college,
Snell said he hoped to obtain a job he
would stay with until he retired. Nowadays,
thats not the case.
Some say by the time a millennial
reaches retirement age, they will have
had anywhere from seven to 12 jobs in
their lifetime in different study areas, he
said. Choosing a stackable degree will
help those students.
Students can choose areas in agricul-
ture, communication, health, math, his-
tory, sociology, nutrition and more.
Snell said they want to see what kind
of jobs are needed in Cleburne and the
surrounding areas, see if students are
interested in those areas and push them
in the right direction to earning those
degrees.
Texas Tech University Waco campus Director Lewis Snell discusses the partnership be-
tween the university and Hill College during a recent Cleburne Rotary Club weekly lun-
cheon at the Cleburne Conference Center.
Financial aid
Officials are making it easier for stu-
dents to transfer from any community
college to the Texas Tech campus in
Lubbock by offering transfer scholarships.
A transfer student can earn the Proven
Achievers Scholarship for $13,000 if they
have 60 transferable hours and a 3.5
GPA.
A transfer Texas student can earn the
Presidents Transfer Scholarship for
$9,000 if they have 30 transferable hours,
a 3.0 GPA and meet the financial need as
evidenced by the Free Application for
Federal Student Aid.
A transfer student can also earn the
Impact Presidents Transfer Scholarship
for $5,000 if they have 30 transferable
hours, a 3.0 GPA and meet the financial
need as evidenced by FAFSA. This schol-
arship is available for students entering
Texas Tech in the fall semesters.
A transfer student who has earned
their associates degree can enter into the
Red Raider Guarantee. They must be a

Texas resident and have a family adjusted
gross income of $40,000 or less.
Future growth
The Hill College and Texas Tech part-
nership has only been in affect for a little
over a year, but Snell said when they
started they had eight students enrolled
and now have 12 students. The hope to
have 50 or more students by 2020.
We see theres a lot of growth poten-
tial here, Snell said. Were going to lis-
ten to the community. Were going to
find out what jobs are needed and try to
pair things up to where were building
degrees that fit what is needed in
Cleburne. We dont just want to have
degrees that dont fit anything.
As of right now, all the Texas Tech
classes offered at Hill are online, but as
they continue to grow the hope is to hire
instructors for students to meet in class.

nership, visit www.depts.ttu.edu/hillcol-
