"...From whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according
to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the
edifying of itself in love." (Eph. 4:16)
Do you know how many members of the Tate family belong to your church? There is brother Dic
Tate who wants to run everything, while Uncle Ro Tate tries to change everything. Their sister
Agi Tate stirs up plenty of trouble, with help from her husband, Irri Tate. Whenever new projects
are suggested, Hesi Tate and his wife, Vege Tate, want to wait until next year. Then there is Aunt
Imi Tate, who wants the church to be like all the others. Devas Tate provides the voice of doom,
while Poten Tate wants to be a big shot. And of course there is the black sheep of the family,
Ampu Tate, who has completely cut himself off from the church.
However, not all members of the Tate family are bad. Brother Facili Tate is quite helpful in church
matters, and a delightful, happy member of the family is Mrs. Felici Tate. And, there is cousin
Medi Tate who always thinks things over, and lends a helpful, steady hand. (Author Unknown)
Let us felicitate the cause of Christ rather than agitate it.
