Dear Friends

This week marks the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of El Alamein in Egypt during World War II.  Of this battle Winston Churchill wrote "Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein, we never had a defeat."

On this 21st of the month, Jesus please bless the people of Yunnan
(Please join me in praying for one part of China each day of the month)

My Bible Plan for today = The readings for the 29th Sunday of the Year
Let's use these readings to think about being "servants' rather than "lords" 

Thank you for a prayer

God bless!
