Mon. Aug. 27, '51
Dear Helen,
—It was a real surprise to learn of your having to go to the hospital. We pledge ourselves to stand with you in prayer.
—My confidence in our wonderful Savior is growing stronger everyday. Why Not! When He has promised to "never, never leave us or forsake us."
—When M. E. called this A.M. I could hear the happy voices of Joyce & Marilyn. I'm sure Joyce will be a blessing to the Piphers as well as visa versa.
—This little tract expresses my sentiments better than I could word them. Dear, I'm sure the Lord will bring your thru this trial victorious in Him.
"For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God before ordained that we should walk in them." Eph. 2:10
—Turned out a big wash today as I didn't wash last wk. Hung in the attic as well as out doors.
—Trust Dorothy will keep us posted as to yourself. I forgot to ask her yesterday.
Loads of love,
Mother
