— a part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA)."Why would they want a transgender Latina in the ELCA?" Garcia said.Garcia's gender transition began when she was 43 years old. Before then, she said she had already left the Catholic church for years."And a big part of it was because I was angry at God for not fixing me," Garcia said. "I never felt comfortable in my own skin, and I prayed to God to make me the person that I was supposed to be, and it never happened."Garcia found the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America before they decided to allow transgender people and people in same-sex relationships to become pastors.She said she was able to walk into the church and feel loved and accepted from the beginning. However, not everyone was welcoming."I got accosted in the hallways and got the finger face, 'You're just breaking up the church, you and your evil agenda.' And I would just shake my head and say, 'No,' " she said.After taking part in her first service as pastor, she said she wants to continue breaking barriers for others to follow her steps.She said hateful words will not stop her journey."I do have a bullseye on my back, and I've known that for years, so if they want to stop me, they've got to kill me," she said.This story was originally published by 1296

after "recent developments in the investigation have led investigators to believe the children may now be in danger."The Stafford County Sheriff's Office (SCSO) says it is searching for Melody Bannister and her four children, who were last seen in Moulton, Alabama on Aug. 20.According to the SCSO, Bannister told deputies in June that her children had been abused by a family member. Child Protective Services later determined the allegations were unfounded, but before the investigation ended, Bannister and her four children left Virginia for a planned vacation to Alabama. They never returned.The Stafford County Juvenile Domestic and Relations Court eventually granted custody of the children to their father. Bannister petitioned the court in Alabama and requested that custody be issued to her there, but courts ordered her to return her children to the father in Virginia.Bannister did not comply and was last seen in Alabama on Aug. 20. She is currently wanted for one felony charge of Violation of a Court Order, four misdemeanor charges of Abduction, and one misdemeanor charge of Filing a False Police Report.Bannister's four children are Genevieve Bannister, 13; Janelle Bannister, 12; Vivienne Bannister, 11; and Peter Bannister, 7."The U.S. Marshals Service and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children became involved in the investigation several months ago," a spokesperson for the SCSO said.Over the past several months, they have been seen at the following locations:Birmingham, Alabama - 35201Moulton, Alabama - 35650Greenville, South Carolina - 29601Shell Lake, Wisconsin - 54871Madison, Wisconsin - 53701Spooner, Wisconsin - 54801Maryville, Tennessee - 37801Knoxville, Tennessee - 37901Lexington, Kentucky - 40502Leadville, Colorado - 80429Raleigh, North Carolina - 27601Aransas Pass, Texas - 78335Dallas, Texas - 75201Corpus Christie, Texas - 78401Law enforcement officials are asking anyone with information to contact: 1-877-WANTED2.This story was originally published by 2013

but it's not because they were shot. It's a result of other animals being shot and the type of bullets being used.The Raptor Recovery Center at Fontenelle Forest has treated nearly 30 birds for lead poisoning this year, including a 4-year-old bald eagle that died as a result of it."She was in pain, she was vocalizing, and unfortunately she died about two hours after I got her," said Denise Lewis, the director of the Raptor Recovery Center.Staff says the issue is a common problem. "They ingest the lead from the environment, either like from (a) carcass that was shot with lead or from lead sinkers that fish swallow," said Betsy Finch, rehabilitation manager at the Raptor Recovery Center.They are asking that hunters change ammo from lead to other types of bullets like copper. Nebraska hunter Douglas Finch made the change and recommends others to do the same. "The copper bullets they retain 95% or better of their weight which transfers that energy into the animal and, in my experience, I think it results in a cleaner kill," Finch said.For now, the dead bald eagle serves as a reminder of change Lewis hopes to see. "If you're a hunter, you can choose to use something that's non-toxic so that this doesn't happen," he said.This story was originally published by 1276
