SPRING 2010 LETTER from Cherie R. White - Methodist Seminary, Mexico City

As he walks the 40 minutes between one church & the next, he ponders on the previous worship service & the joy of the upcoming one, since the members of the church are always glad to see him & be able to worship. He gave thanks for that privilege & the renewal it entailed for him.
