Dear Ones,
Please allow me to make one more observation concerning the Jubilee Gala. I think you will agree with me that the planning and the execution of the event was impeccable, Having said that, there was part of that plan that I will liken to Jesus making provisions for the care of His mother (John 19:26, 27) or Mordecai with Hadassah, that is Esther. (Esther: 2:7 ) In each of these instances, something very personal was done to accommodate a need. As most of you know, Sister Jones has some mobility issues. With that in mind, this wonderful committee included in their plans provisions to address her lack of mobility. How caring, how loving, and how thoughtful. From this pastor’s heart to each of the committee members, thank you for caring enough to do your very best. (What you do for the pastor’s wife, you have done it for the pastor.)
Just a footnote: “The opportunities we have are more important than the ones we wish we had.” The wise man tells us to “Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.” (Eccl. 11:1) To God be the glory! Again, thank you for loving and caring.
Let us continue.
Pastor J. Amos Jones
