It was a wonderful life. To have a stage play right in this room, with real people acting real parts.

This month's meeting is our first major outreach to people outside the group.

Cynics will say there are no good people out there. And if you read the papers and watch TV news you could be convinced of that. But there are good people.

My life is extremely full and wretchedly busy, and I feel that while my life drains energy from my work, my work in turn drains energy from my life. The result is, I am always playing catch-up spiritually. That is my thorn.

I live in a village where people still care about each other, largely.

So many people don't know that God loves them. They feel, 'Why would God love me? Why would He be interested in me?'
