`The Church as a Community'

We have been most conscious over the past months of the fortitude and devotion of your staff that surely has been "writing its heart out on behalf of mankind." Thank you each and every one for the stirring editions you never fail to produce - for super coverage of the Middle East and China, plus marvelous graphics. Marilynn and Charles Darling, New York
