September Bulletin

 

There Is A Purpose

There’s nothing common under the sun, the skies, the sea, or the sod;

There’s a purpose in life for everything, for everything’s made by God.

The whole wide world, the moon, the stars, flowers, birds, beasts, and trees,

Will all surpass the things man made for God made the whole of these.

There’s nothing common under the sun, all’s made by His great plan,

All beautiful things blend to a whole, and all for the good of man.

There’s nothing common under the sun, the skies, the sea, or the sod,

All things that are worthy make the whole, and man must work with God.

Domestic Center Open House

The Domestic Center is a training school in Les Cayes, Haiti which operates nearby where our own missionaries work.  The school specializes in teaching Haitian women the domestic arts.  We will be displaying some of the linens, needlework, & other handmade items … such as purses, bags, sweaters, etc.  By selling these items to Americans, we hope to assist these women in the daunting task of providing for their families in one of the poorest countries in the world.

 

 

It was spring, but it was summer I wanted,

the warm days and the great outdoors.

It was summer, but it was fall I wanted,

the colorful leaves and the cool, dry air.

It was fall, but it was winter I wanted,

the snow and the joy of the holiday season.

I was a child, but it was adulthood I wanted,

the freedom and the respect.

I was twenty, but it was thirty I wanted,

to be mature and sophisticated.

I was middle-aged, but it was thirty I wanted,

the youth and the free spirit.

I was retired, but it was middle-aged I wanted,

the presence of mind without limitations.

My life was over, but I never got what I wanted.
