Please drop me a note!


This issue is full of excellent reminders of where our highest priorities in life should lie. We pray it encourages each reader to focus on seeking the Lord and His true wisdom above all else!

This issue includes the username and password needed to access phase two of HW's 2005 photo contest -- we're looking forward to getting everyone's feedback on it! Also, it's not too late to fill out this year's reader survey. All the ideas shared so far have been very helpful -- thanks to all who have taken time to participate!
