"Neither snow, nor rain, nor gloom of night shall stay these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds." So goes the unofficial motto of the U. S. Postal Service.

This is Howard Butt, Jr., of Laity Lodge. The world still depends on the people we entrust with our mail. Their devotion to duty—through whatever comes—serves and inspires us all. They demonstrate the high calling of our daily work.

May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance.

(2 Thess. 3:5)
