"Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: "Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?" Then I
said, "Here am I! Send me." (Isa. 6:8)
With great regret we announce the death of one of our church's most valuable members, Mr.
Someone Else. His shoes will be hard to fill. Whenever there was a job to be done, everyone said,
"Let Someone Else do it." Whenever personal work was encouraged, they said, " Let Someone
Else set up Bible classes in non-members homes." When growth was mentioned, it was asked,
"Why don't Someone Else bring more people to services?" When visitations was suggested, it was
said, "Let Someone Else go visit the sick, poor, and needy." Whenever generous giving was
needed, many said, "Let Someone Else make up the difference."
Someone Else was a wonderful Christian, but he could spread himself only so far. People
expected far too much from him. Now, since he has gone, who will step forward to do this things
that Someone Else always did?
Let us be ready volunteers in the service of the Lord. "Here am I! Send me."
