FROM THE EAST
Dear Sisters & Brothers,
It is the little things we do and say
That mean so much as we go our way.
A kindly deed can lift the load
From weary shoulders on the road.
Or a gentle word, like the summer rain,
May soothe some heart and banish pain.
What joy or sadness often springs
From just the simple little things!
In Star Love,
Mrs. Edith G. Munroe, P.M., W.M.
Mr. Todd J. Ridder, W.P.
Mrs. Brenda J. O’Toole, P.M., Secretary
