Johnny Cash and I believe Roy Clark were baby Christians, (aren't we all), at that time. Johnny in the later years wore black to signify the suffering world wide,he was the man in black. I believe we all can hear the strengh of his belief's in his music. Funny story about Roy Clark, years ago, he said the funniest thing that ever happened to him, he was in an examination room with a doctor, and a nurse was also there. Most of us know the exam is not the most pleasant thing to have performed on your body. He said, while he was in the position he had to get in, the nurse said to him "Mr. Clark may I have your autograph?" Said he laughed so hard, the doctor had to hold him to keep him from rolling off the table. God Bless bob “Far Away Places” A song I may have sung as a young man..

The nursing home gives each such resident a number and tells us whether that resident is male or female and what particular needs of a gift nature that person might have. Each donor then sends a gift or several to that unknown person to make their Christmas a happy one.

It's a great organization and a gift of textbooks or a goat for a family is a great way to remember those with the most basic of needs. www.africamissionalliance.org Check it out!
