    Sermon delivered in support of our theme for 2002, and on the occasion of our annual meeting. A vision brings death if it is not communicated; it is discerned in prayer; and it always calls for repentance for the incompleteness of our obedience.

    Ruth’s love story tells of her "kinsman-redeemer" which points to Jesus as the Saviour of the world.

    THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SHORT STORY IN THE WORLD I think everybody likes to read a love story, especially if it’s true.
