My mt1ncdiatc lh ught was, "What an abundant cntran e that dear 1Tu'U1 has l1ad into heaven!" lie had been u d of God to win n1any, rnany ouls to O ui t; an~ because he walked wl1al he taught, he was also used of God to impact the live of all who knew hirn. At Brother Don· funeral , his grand– daughter sang beautifully the song, "Thank You." One part ofthat ong peaks of giving to mi ionaries, and I quietly f:hanked the Lord for the gift Mr. and Mrs. Wrnters gave that helped my daughter go to England for her MAP experience. I wondered if perbap there might be at least one.British oul in heaven who would say to him, "Thank you for giving to the Lord." On the way home from the funeral , I continued thinking about that song. It tells of one wbo faithfully and willingly gave of him elf and his possessions here on earth. Consequently, as be arrives in heaven, be is greeted by tho e who are there becau e be "gave." Let me quote exactly lhe part pertaining to missions: "... then another man stood before you and said, 'Remember the time a missionary came to your church, and his pictures made you cry. You didn' t have much mon~y, but you gave it anyway. Jesus took tbe gift you gave, and that' s why I'm here today."' I thought then about the videos we women are seeing (you have asked your area representative for the video, haven' t OWMU Officers President: Sue Miller 1750 Ainthill Drive Columbus, OH 43223 614-875-4128 Vi ce-President : Secretary: Treasurer: Diane Varner 51 01 Fairland Rd Barberton, OH 44203 216-825-6178.

I tJ1ought about au U1at I>ac;tor Diyoyouwci and tJ1c VandcnAkkcrs share with u n that tape about the great ncc<l in Liberia. I thought aJ o of U1e pictur~ of Liberia in Baptist Mid-Mission ' Harvest publication that certainly must bring tears to our eyes if we look at lhcm through the eyes of hri t. I thougl1t about the quarter savers that so many of you have requested. And then I thought about how wonderf uJ it will be when we get to heaven and have many Liberians say to us, "Jesu took the quarter savers you filled and gave, and that' s why I'm here today." Thank you, ladies, for giving to the Lord.
