I really appreciate any help I can get.

Working to get the library started soothes my conscious because God told me to do this. I realize it will take a long time but it will happen. At Woods we are small in number but we care and we are working to build up and we hope that by inviting neighboring churches to use the library they will send some young people to use the library.

Bill Ponder has helped me a lot by bringing books and others are going to donate books, too. The cash donations will be used to finish a series and I would really like to get more youth and children's books.

God spoke to me and told me I should make a library for my church, Woods Presbyterian, because I had all these boxes of books that wasn't doing anybody any good, they were just sitting there. God told me that this was something I could do to help others and hopefully get more young people interested in coming to the church.

That was very hard to take. But you've got to stick with him and help him out.

Certainly, there is a strategic element to it. On the other hand, the purpose of the clergy is to help navigate difficult moral terrain, and abortion constitutes difficult moral terrain for a good number of women.
