Dear Friends:
LOVE! This is what I remember when I was teaching the Emma Cclodfelter Class. The main teacher of this word love was Willie Tuttle. This theme seemed to be brought out in each sunday school lesson by Willie.
Willie proclaimed love in every sunday school lesson. Now I look back over the years that have past and I see that Willie was right.The LOVE of God is in all of our Sunday School lessons. May the Lord bless your family in this time of celebrations.
Till He Returns
LOVE BEN Hemrick
