CLAY
“Clay” by Tricia Richards
…
Will I step aside for other Moving in to take a place, That I thought was mine forever Mine to shape, my special space? Can I change a lifetime’s habits Paths I’ve trod for years and years? Believing I was God’s annointed Pushing through the pain and tears. Now I see, I am the clay, And you the craftsman moulding dreams. Hold me in, so you can fashion, Higher callings, heavens themes Give me grace and grant me vision Far outside this earthbound life That I can be, a vessel, holy Worthy of your sacrifice. …This poem was written by Tricia Richards. She and her husband Noel travel the world sharing his songs and Tricia’s poetry. We were honored this past week to have met them and have shared in their wonderful ministry.

After 9 Years, We Have a Photo!
When photos of four of the five busts in the British Virgin Islands were originally taken in 2000, the film roll was accidentally double-exposed and the photos were lost. We’ve periodically searched the Internet for a photo, but have found none with close-ups until now, almost nine years later! On the Internet we just discovered an excellent photo of the building and portrait busts in front, taken by Robert English, an American who was vacationing in the Caribbean in December 2007. Robert has graciously allowed us to use his photo, and we extend our thanks!
