A CENTENARY CELEBRATION OF PERSISTENCE

In his farewell speech Samuel, Old Testament prophet and leader, imparted advice to all of Israel (I Samuel 12:24-25), But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you. Yet if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will be swept away." (NIV)
