Greetings and best wishes from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church, still located in the heart of Vinita, Oklahoma.
An overcast, wet Monday morning (June 16, 2008) was brightened as I read about "Home of Hope" in the Tulsa World. Through its residential and vocational programs, it assists people with mental disabilities.
Founded by Jane Hartley and Laura Cupp, it is a perfect example of faith in action! Mrs. Hartley was a devoted Pilgrim Presbyterian, and we do well to imitate her "faith in ac dead!"
There is hardly anything so necessary as the ability to distinguish between that which is important and that which is not. Mrs. Hartley and Mrs. Cupp had that ability and obviously they knew that the most God-like thing in the world is the passion to help others.
Your determination never to be useless will take you a long way in doing God-like work in the world, at your doorstep and beyond.
In friendship,
Richard
