Wow! Thanks RuthHaley Barton. What a powerful and inspiring message. You, I believe, have hit the nail directly on the head. I will uphold you in prayer and that God may continue to bear you up to bring forth his message. Please, pray for myself as well and that I will gain such a strong grasp on ‘what’s real’.

Pastor Vern Groves

So glad it was meaningful and thank you for your prayers. Let’s pray for each other that we will have an increasingly good grasp on the Unchanging Real!

It is well with my soul. You speak my heart and my mind, but in words I can never quite find. Thank you, Ruth. I am guessing Northern’s graduates WILL remember THIS commencement speaker!

May it be so!

Dear Ruth,
Thank you for the good service to us. I have gained a lot from teachings and believe that one day the Lord will enable to attend your conferences. Pray for me that God may provide for such trips.
Ochieng.
