Life is too short to spend even one day of it in bickering and strife. Love is too sacred to be forever lacerated and torn by the ugly briers of sharp temper. Surely we ought to learn to be patient with others, since God has to show every day such infinite patience toward us.

We need English teachers for next year. If you are a secondary English teacher or know of one and would like to serve missionaries in Africa for one year, please drop me a line.

Thanks.
