Dear Little Michael Russell-- you with the tear-stained face holding your little Olympic torch symbol unable to get in the race. I am very happy, wee lad to tell you of a better Race which you can enter any time and at the end see Jesus face to face. The reward for running it is to be ever in His Presence first here by simple faith and in Heaven a sinless existence. That's my prayer for you, wee sir and hope in heaven you I'll meet seeing the One who paid for the running as we fall humbly before His mercy seat. May these inspired lines light up your little heart. Please feel free to write for the papers (Mom & Dad can too) and in sending them I'll do my part. Bowness Tract Band Secretary signature: Z.
