PRESBYTERS CONFERENCE IN LIGONIER

Dear Presbyter.

We are fast approaching our 35th Annual Presbyters Meeting. This year it again will be held in Ligonier, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, September 6th and Monday, September 7th, Labor Day. I am looking forward to seeing all of you once again and hope that you have had a good year so far and that your preparations are proceeding for the Conference.

I have contacted Rev. Paul Kovács and he informs me that we can plan on using the new facilities on the hill for all of our meetings. Also, our lunches and eveing meals can be arranged for, as we have done in the past.

The new Lord Ligonier Inn {formerly Holiday Inn) has also been called and they agreed to reserve a block of rooms as in the past. When calling for reservations, tell them you are a member of the Presbyter's Group. The rooms once again, have been discounted and the cost will be $29for single occupancy and $33 for double occupancy.

Please write or call me if you have any suggestions or questions. Office: {313) 554-6840 from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.; Home: {313) 382-3049.

Sincerely yours,

Edmund Vig, President Presbyter’s Association 9804 Melbourne Allen Park, Michigan 48101

A DEDICATION

Oh, Lord, I present myself to Thee; My Will,

My Time,

My Talents,

My Tongue,

My Property,

My Reputation,

My Entire Being,

To be — and to do —

Anything Thou requirest of me. Now,

As I have given myself to Thee —

I am no longer my own—but all the Lord’s.

I believe

That Thou wilt accept the offering I bring;

I trust Thee

To work in me all the good pleasure of Thy will.

I am willing,

To receive what Thou givest,

To lack what Thou witholdest,

To relinquish what Thou takest,

To surrender what Thou claimest,

To suffer what Thou ordainest,

To do what Thou commandest,

To wait —’til Thou sayest, “Go.”
