Harvest Fest yields food, fun

October 31 is celebrated in many countries around the world as Halloween. People decorate their homes and offices and many adults as well as children dress up in various costumes.

What is worth investing in?

The other day, as I was walking past my mailbox, I took a long look at it. It is old, faded and slides a little bit forward when one opens it.

Much of this comes from humanistic teaching in our schools today. Our young people are faced with instructors who do not believe in the Bible.
