Dear Friends,
This week Lydia and I are enjoying ourselves at the International Congress of the Free Presbyterian Church. The Lord has greatly blessed the meetings so far. On Wednesday evening we had a missions emphasis and enjoyed hearing the testimonies from several of our missionaries. It was good to hear how the Lord has been working in many of our churches around the world. Also, we were challenged to continue praying for these works.
Remember that this Lord's day we will be having our monthly communion servcie. I want to encourage you to prepare your heart before the Lord before you come to the Table.
Yours in Christ,

Christ's Sympathy to Weary Pilgrims
By Octavious Winslow, 1870 |
| THE ALTOGETHER LOVELY ONE! |
With what pen, dipped though it were in heaven's brightest hues, can we portray the image of Jesus? The perfection of our Lord was the perfection of holiness. His Deity, essential holiness; His humanity without sin, the impersonation of holiness. All that He was, said, and did, was as flashes of holiness emanating from the fountain of essential purity, and kindling their dazzling and undying radiance around each step He trod. How humble, too, His character! How holy the thoughts He breathed, how pure the words He spoke, how gentle the spirit He exemplified, how tender and sympathizing the outgoings of His compassion and love to man. He is the chief among ten thousand, the altogether lovely one!
