We are happy to publish, on pages 2 and 3, articles
and pictures in memory of the life and work of Albert Shroades
and his beloved wife, June. We plan to feature articles in honor
of Bob Kessinger and Kenneth Adams in the near future. We invite
articles that honor the lives of our faithful brothers and sisters
in the Lord.
The recent tsunami disaster has sobered our hearts.
We have been made to see the frailty and brevity of life and the
almost overwhelming spiritual and physical needs of our fellowman.
We commend brother Gene Miller's article, above, and brother Steve
Snider's article on page 6.
Dear friends, when "all of life is over and
our work on earth is done," the only thing that will matter
is whether our names are written on the roll of the Lamb's book
of life. Is your name written there? Believe in Jesus that He
is the Christ, the Son of the living God; repent of your sins;
be buried with Christ in baptism for the remission of your sins
and upon the confession of your faith; arise and walk in newness
of life. Be a faithful member of His church.
Our circulation for last month was 2,566 copies.
We continue to work and pray that we may achieve our goal of 2,800
copies per month. We are thankful for all who are helping. Albert.
