75 Years Of Faith . . .
And Looking Ahead With Hope!
In the spirit of sharing, we in
Life-Study Fellowship have prepared this holiday issue of Faith
Magazine just for you, Dear
Member! As we get ready to celebrate the birth of Christ, we’re
also wrapping up a year-long
birthday of our own, for 2015 was
the 75th Anniversary of FAITH!
When we announced that back
in
January,
we
noted
Fellowship’s founding principles
have remained constant throughout decades of change going on
around us . . . to “do good” for the
many Members and others whose
lives we have touched throughout
our 75 years.
That’s a proud legacy for us,
and the letters we receive from
hundreds and hundreds of our
Members show just how much
Faith Magazine means to all of
you, too. Its message of hopeful,
positive prayer resonates across
the U.S. and around the globe,
reaching out to Members like
Rosetta N., of New York. On
Page 30, she wrote about
Fellowship, “I think of you as the
modern day disciples and ambassadors of the Lord, distributing
His message around the World.
You are truly a godsend, and I
want to let you know that I love
you always! Please just keep on
doing God’s work, and may He
bless and keep you in His care.”
Letters like Rosetta’s are a
touching reminder of why
Fellowship is different from so
many other good organizations.
Our Fellowship Friends have a
deep, heartfelt connection with
God, and they are happy to write
about it. On Page 13, Member
Jessica F. from Louisiana wrote,
“One day I was in an automobile
accident, and as a result I suffered a traumatic brain injury. I
was in a coma for three months
and in the hospital for an entire
year.
Before I woke up from my
coma I had a vision in which I
met Jesus Christ! He told me,
‘You see, I am real. Now, I am
giving you your life back, but
you must promise to never again
doubt that I exist.’
I’ve been a Christian ever
since. I put all my trust in the
Lord now. It’s not easy at times,
but I know He’s always there for
me.”
If that account of a direct connection to the Lord doesn’t give
you chills, nothing will! Our
Members also say prayer has
helped them cope with the emotional pain of loss during a season known for fun get-togethers.
On Page 11, Member Shirley N.
from Georgia noted, “As the holidays drew closer, one morning it
dawned on me that I couldn’t lift
myself out of this depression
alone. It was going to take the
Lord’s help.”
So, you see, Dear Friend, as we
start our next 75 years, you can be
sure the founding beliefs of
Fellowship will hold strong. We
exist to serve you as we reach out
and publish God’s message of
love. You will never read negativity from us, just a positive and
powerful statement that the
Lord will support and comfort
you throughout your life, when
you invite Him in.

carton, because it has another
use! As you empty them, rinse
and refill square milk cartons
with clean water. Leave an inch
in the top for expansion, then
tuck into the freezer. Use frozen
cartons whole to cool ice chests.
For crushed ice, turn the cartons
sideways and smack smartly
against a concrete floor on all
sides, then tear open the top and
pour out the ice pieces.
It’s time for holiday gatherings
with friends or family members
dropping by, Dear Friend, which
means we all want our homes to
be nice and presentable for all
who visit. Your Fellow Members
have some good ideas about how
to do that, so we have shared the
best of them here!

CHRISTMAS LIGHT SAFETY
Never connect more than one
extension cord together. Instead,
use a single cord that is long
enough to reach the outlet without stretching, but not so long
that it can get easily tangled.
When hanging outdoor lights,
keep electrical connectors off
the ground and away from metal
rain gutters. Use insulated tape
or plastic clips instead of metal
nails or tacks to hold them in
place.
***
It takes some time to prepare
and plan for holiday parties, so
here are a few tips to take the
stress out of that chore. The first
thing is, divide up each task so
they don’t overwhelm you!
Organize chores by room so you
can complete a space, see your
progress, and move on to the next
item on the list. You may start
with this helpful plan: Day 1:
Determine what needs to be done
and develop a strategy to accomplish it. Day 2: Brighten the windows and entry. Day 3: Clean the
bathrooms. Day 4: Clear out clutter in areas where guests will be
gathering or staying. Day 5: Clean
the kitchen. Day 6: Touch up last
minute details in the party
spaces, then enjoy your guests!
A GOOD HOST
If children are invited to your
holiday party, try having an activity just for them. Creating a
Christmas craft, a kid friendly
movie or game or cookie decorating are all good ways to keep
younger guests occupied. As a
bonus, adults will enjoy your
party more, too!

NOVEMBER — Fellowship’s DAILY PRAYERS
Let us make every day of November a day of thanksgiving, Dear
Member. We are especially grateful as we give thanks to God, saying
the Three Daily Prayers along with our Fellow Members. What a
wonderful way to express your love for the Lord, as you pray!
“Enter His gates with
thanksgiving!”
Psalm 100:4
8:00 A.M. Prayer for Guidance
Lord in Heaven, as day breaks and I wake
up to pray, I ask for the hours ahead to bring
happiness and harmony for all of us who are
Friends in Fellowship. Please bless us today
with Your Guidance and help us accomplish
our tasks. We are faithful to You, O Lord, and
we believe in the power of Your love.
— Amen
12:00 Noon Prayer for Prosperity
Dearest Lord, the sun is high and I join many of my
Fellowship Friends in saying a midday prayer asking You to
help all of us Prosper in the days and months ahead. As we strive
for success, we will never forget it is Your love that keeps us
strong, following the path You have created for us. I ask, Lord,
that You guide me and all those in Fellowship past any obstacles
in front of us, and help us to recognize good opportunities as
they arise.
— Amen
9:00 P.M. Prayer for Health and Healing
Lord Almighty, as darkness arrives this November night, it
is time to rest. Before I go to bed I ask You to bless me with a
quiet, peaceful evening and give You thanks for the good day
that has passed. Please grant the blessings of Health and
Healing to my Fellowship Friends as well, and let them sleep
soundly, free of bad dreams and other ills. I ask this in Your
Name. We will rest peacefully knowing You are with us, offering
comfort.
— Amen

Strength For The Day
Little Prayers For Life’s Everyday Situations
Christmas Prayer
Dearest Lord, Christmas carols
and seasonal greetings are wonderful accents to the holidays.
But now, I want to sit quietly and
say a prayer of thanks to You for
the most special gift of all . . .
Your Son, Jesus. His birthday
reminds us how He spread the
precious gifts of love and joy
throughout the World!
—Amen
Holiday Hopes
O Father, I pray the true spirit
of this Christmas season will be
kindled in the souls of all who
have been fighting and waging
war around the globe. Please
open their hearts to the possibility of living beside their neighbors in peaceful harmony. May
those who have been displaced by
fighting find safe havens where
they can rest.
— Amen
Thanksgiving Blessing
Thanksgiving Day is a chance to
see and talk with the friends and family members I love, Dear Lord. It
brings us together to celebrate the
things we have in common, and minimize our differences. As we enjoy
this Thanksgiving feast, let us
also give thanks for Your generous blessings, for they support
and provide for us every day.
— Amen
Stronger Faith
Lord, as this old year winds
down and the holiday season
arrives, I think of the challenges
I faced. I don’t know how I would
have coped without the support
of my faith, so I ask You to help
me develop and deepen that feeling during this New Year. Help
me find peace in my faith, and let
it be my comfort and inspiration.
— Amen
Staying Warm
Every year, I dread the
approach of winter, Lord. It
brings teeth-chattering cold and
brisk winds that chill me to the
bone. I pray for Your help to stay
warm this year, Dear Father! I
pray that fuel prices stay lower
so I can afford to heat my home.
My holiday wish is for everyone
to have a warm place to stay!
— Amen
New Year’s Prayer
Dearest Lord, as I planned my
future a year ago, I was full of
grand dreams. Nearly 12 months
later, I realize I didn’t do all the
things I hoped. Yet, I am not sad.
I just look at the New Year as an
opportunity to start over and
work diligently to finish what I
began long ago. I know You will
be with me this year, Father!
— Amen

Joy To The World,
The Lord Is Come!
Book Of Luke:
Chapter 2:1-11
And it came to pass in those days,
that there went out a decree from
Caesar Augustus, that all the
world should be taxed . . . And all
went to be taxed, every one into
his own city.
And Joseph also went up from
Galilee, out of the city of
Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the
city of David, which is called
Bethlehem; to be taxed with
Mary his espoused wife, being
great with child.
And so it was, that, while they
were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her
firstborn Son, and wrapped Him
in swaddling clothes, and laid
Him in a manger; because there
was no room for them in the inn.
And there were in the same
country shepherds abiding in the
field, keeping watch over their
flock by night.
And, lo, the angel of the Lord
came upon them, and the glory of
the Lord shone round about
them: and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them,
Fear not: for, behold, I bring you
good tidings of great joy, which
shall be to all people. For unto
you is born this day in the city of
David a Saviour, which is Christ
the Lord.
Joy to the world! The Lord is
come;
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him
room,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and
nature sing.
Joy to the Earth! the Saviour
reigns;
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks,
hills, and plains,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows
grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings
flow,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.

Turn Your “Blue Christmas” Into
A Positive, Uplifting Experience!
talking about their problem or
they think keeping it secret
makes them brave. That couldn’t
be more wrong. Bottling things
up inside can cause big health
issues
down
the
road.
Remember, Fellowship’s Special
Help Department is here for you!
For many of us, the holidays
are a warm, wondrous time
filled with love and friendship.
But for those who have lost a
loved one during the year, or had
a health crisis, or faced a variety
of challenges, the merriment
outside can lead to feelings of
sadness. After all, if you’re hurting inside, Dear Member, you
likely don’t feel all that festive.
That feeling of heartache was
captured by the well known
Elvis Presley song “Blue
Christmas.”
So, how can you cope with feeling “blue” this holiday season?
Here are a few tips:
Solving Loneliness . . . Spend
time with positive people. In
time, you will notice their cheerful nature is rubbing off on you.
That doesn’t mean you will forget the reason for your sadness,
but we’re sure being around positive influences will lift your
spirits.
Exercise regularly: Getting
your heart rate up and blood
pumping can help to clear your
head and relieve stress.
Eat right. Try not to eat too
much or too little, because both
behaviors can cause health
problems.
Talk about your feelings. This
is a big one, Dear Friend. Many
folks bottle everything up inside
because they’re embarrassed of
Give to others. Getting out of
the house and volunteering your
time to help others in need will
almost certainly lift you up and
inspire you to continue helping
others. That’s because giving of
your time is a rewarding experience that makes you feel good
inside, Dear Member. Soon,
you’ll notice you start thinking
more about what you can do for
someone who needs help, than
about what is making you feel
down.
Lean on the Lord. This is perhaps the most important thing,
Dear Friend, and it will lead you
into other positive behaviors.
Even if you’re afraid to talk to
others about your problems, you
know you can always talk to
God. He is with you always, listening and sending His help
when you seek it!

My
Fellowship’s special prayers on
many occasions, so maybe she
was looking down and sending
me silent encouragement. I wrote
for the prayer help and received it
soon after. For the next few weeks,
I had a lot of conversations with
God. I asked Him to lift my
depression and ease the intense
feelings of sadness, hurt and
anger I was harboring due to my
mother’s death.
It felt really good just to talk to
someone about what I was feeling, instead of keeping it all
inside. I think it took the pressure
and responsibility off me as I
turned my problems over to the
Lord and asked Him to help me
work on them.
The long, legal process concluded a few weeks before Christmas
and I began to feel more at peace.
I made myself go to a Christmas
party and actually enjoyed it. To
my surprise, I made some wonderful new friends there as well.
Thanks to the Lord and
Fellowship’s special prayers, I
feel I can move on and relive good
memories about my mother now!
The holidays bring with them
the potential for lasting memories of friendship, family gatherings and fun. Sometimes they
bring bittersweet remembrances
sevas well. That’s what I faced
eral years ago, Dear Friends,
before the Lord healed my heart.
You see, I had lost my mother
earlier that year. Her health had
been failing for a while, but that
didn’t make it any easier to say
goodbye. We were very close, and
after dealing with that hurt, plus
all the legal issues, I was exhausted emotionally. The last thing I
wanted to think about was being
around happy, smiling people during the holidays, because I felt
bleak and alone.
All my Fellow Members will
understand when I say I relied on

Fellowship to keep me going,
especially on days when I didn’t
even want to get out of bed. I read
my Daily Bible Verses each day,
though my heart wasn’t in it.
As the holidays drew closer,
one morning it dawned on me
that I couldn’t lift myself out of
this depression alone. It was
going to take the Lord’s help. I

smile and a pat on the back for
others.

10
LIST!
7. The person who has a sincere desire to help rather than
be helped constantly.
8. The person who tries to be a
good example to those around
him or her, instead of just talking about what he or she would
do.
9. The person who commits
himself or herself totally to the
job, and is willing to give credit
for success to his helpers.
Everyone knows about the
“Top Ten Lists” you see on some
late night talk shows.
Well, Dear Member, here
we’re going to tell you about
another list of the “Ten People
You Most Want To Meet.” These
people would be folks you want
to spend time with and have as
friends.
10. The person who gives his
or her time and talents, without
thought of any return.
All of the above are from our
“Top Ten List” of the people
we’d most like to meet and find
more of in the World. And come
to think of it, those are character traits that we’d most like to
see in ourselves, too. If we
strive to live up to these ideals,
we would make others around
us happier, and be happier ourselves.
1. The person who is willing
to say, “I was wrong. I am sorry.
Please forgive me.”
2. The person who puts God’s
business above any other.
3. The person who sees his
own fault before he sees the
faults of others.
It’s no accident either, that
these universal good traits fall
in line with the Lord’s teachings and His selfless love for us,
His children. That’s a “Top Ten
List” with which we all can
agree!
4. The person who looks
squarely into the eye of temptation and says, “No!”
5. The person who takes his

“I Had A Vision In Which
I Met Jesus Christ!”
My Dear Fellowship Friends,
I want to tell you what has
happened in my life to bring me
closer to the Lord. I was a horrible drug addict and alcoholic,
plus I was a Satan worshipper
for many years. (Yes, there are
such things, unfortunately.)
Then, one day I was in an automobile accident, and as a result I
suffered a traumatic brain
injury. I was in a coma for three
months and in the hospital for
an entire year.
Before I woke up from my
coma I had a vision in which I
met Jesus Christ! He told me,
“You see, I am real. Now, I am
giving you your life back, but
you must promise to never again
doubt that I exist.”
I’ve been a Christian ever
since. I put all my trust in the
Lord now. It’s not easy at times,
but I know He’s always there for
me.
Living with a brain injury is
very hard, but Jesus makes it
easier.
Well, that’s my story and I
hope that you decide to print it
in Faith Magazine, because I
think it will make people think
before they do something bad.
I regret the things I did all
those years ago. But with the
Lord’s love, I have turned my life
around.
Dear Fellowship, Thank you
for praying with my son and
with me during our time of
struggle. That’s when my son
was accused of a very serious
crime, and he was facing serious
charges. I had nowhere to turn. I
looked up an old friend who still
had Fellowship’s address from
years past.
My son had no bond, and
every attorney I contacted wanted thousands of dollars to help
us. After I contacted your
Special Help Department for
prayers things began turning
around for us. Someone referred
me to an attorney who took on
the case for a $1,500 deposit. He
talked with the judge, who
agreed to release my son in time
for the Christmas holidays,
without us having to put up a
bond. Then, when the case finally went to trial, it was thrown
out of court for lack of evidence.
Thank
you
so
much,
Fellowship. Today, my son is
back in school and he’s working
at night. Please continue to send
me your prayer help so this good
news can continue!

dolls and toys for their youngsters, I’m reminded of how the
Lord blessed me to turn my
hobby into a very good business!
It happened in a most unusual
way, but that is how God often
answers our prayers . . . in ways
we least expect.
You see, my hobby was making dolls and stuffed toys, but I
never imagined that it would
turn into a big financial blessing
for me.
I had been praying to the Lord,
asking Him to show me the way
to earn money, which my husband and I really needed. It was
so difficult to manage on our
income.
One day, my mother-in-law
who is an artist told me she was
going to display some of her
paintings at an art show that
was being held in the city park.
“Grace,” she said to me, “it’s
going to be quite a job taking all
my paintings down there for
this show. Would you mind coming along and helping me?”
I told her I would be more than
glad to lend a hand, and she suggested, “Why don’t you bring
along some of your dolls and
toys and put them on display,
too? They’re beautiful, and I
know people would enjoy looking at them.”
At first I was a little hesitant
because I had never thought of
my hobby as being that artistic.
But I finally agreed, and I picked
out some of my favorite toys and
dolls to display in the park.
And right there was the unexpected answer to my prayers!
Yes, people who came to the art
show were so impressed with
the things I had made that they
started buying them immediately. From that time on, I have
been getting a steady stream of
orders to purchase all the dolls
and other toys I create! Our
money problems are lifted, and
at the same moment, I’m doing a
job that brings me so much joy!
I thank the Lord over and over
again for guiding me in such a
wonderful way to earn a better
living through my hobby. When
you pray to Him you just never
know what good and surprising
events can take place for you!

“I Wish You God’s Blessing
For The New Year!”
Dear Friends in Fellowship,
It is with joy that I write to
you. My mail has been arriving
late, so I am late sending this
response back. I appreciate your
prayer help and I am using the
prayers you sent to pray for my
children. Things still are not
good for them.
My son has tried to go into
business for some time, but his
ventures always seem to fail. I
am still praying that some day
he will have a successful business, with God’s help. He has
children of his own to educate,
so a prosperous business would
be a blessing for him.
Things aren’t going so well
financially for my daughter
either. She needs some dental
work which will be very costly.
I will be praying for both of
them to receive blessings from
the Lord to take care of their
needs. I will be praying for my
mother as well, since she will
soon be turning 100 years old!
She still does things for herself,
and I am thankful her health
allows her to do that. She has
been a Member of Fellowship
for many, many years, and that’s
the reason I am a Member as
well.
As for myself, I’m doing OK. I
do have some aches in my joints.
I pray about everything, so I talk
to the Lord about that, too. My
prayers bring me closer to God,
and I know He listens to them.
I also want to pass along how
much Fellowship and Faith
Magazine mean to me and my
family, and wish you God’s blessing for the New Year. I love to
check my mail and find a letter
from Fellowship, or my Faith
Magazine. Its prayers, Bible
Verses and stories lift me up and
inspire me. I can’t imagine not
having those things to look forward to each month. I surely
would miss my correspondence
with Fellowship over the years
and your positive message.
Please keep up the good work,
because without you I don’t
know what I would do.

“Great Magazine!”
A recent edition of Faith
Magazine was in my mailbox
when I moved into my new apartment. It was sent to someone
else, but I liked it so much I am
requesting my own copy! The
stories are great. You are putting
out a great magazine. If I can
help you in any way let me know!
If I’m bound with troubles,
That seem to have me lost,
Jesus will pull me to safety
No matter what the cost.

“Member for 60 Years"
Dear Fellowship, I want to
wish you a Merry Christmas for
the upcoming holiday. I have
been a Member of Fellowship for
60 years! Thank you for everything in Faith Magazine. I am
not too well but enjoy reading it.
May God bless you all!
Yes! All I need is Jesus
To guide me and to share,
My hurts, my joys, my sorrows,
Because I know He’s always there.
Preserve The Powerful,
Positive Legacy of Fellowship!

By Member Mary E.
Please remember that it is to
everybody’s advantage to have a
will. This doesn’t apply just to
the very wealthy. The truth is
everyone who owns any property
needs a will to direct who should
benefit.
Otherwise, some or all of your
property will be split up according to state law which may leave
your property in ways you did
not want or intend.
Therefore, whether or not you
include a bequest to Life-Study
Fellowship, we encourage you to
seek the services of an attorney
to have a will drawn up if you
have not already done so.
Some Members have inquired
about how they might make a
bequest to Life-Study Fellowship.
Through the years, many
Members have chosen to remember our Fellowship in this special way and we are truly grateful. Some Members have included Fellowship in their wills,
while others have named LifeStudy Fellowship in their life
insurance policies.
If you are interested in making
arrangements through your will,
we suggest you talk with an
attorney who can explain the tax
advantages and ways to go about
making such a bequest.

ONE-SENTENCE SERMONS
Very often you find that it takes just a few words to express the best
thoughts! That's so true with our little One-Sentence Sermons that
Members send to Faith Magazine. If you have a favorite “saying”
please include it next time you write us! We’d love to publish your
words of wisdom in a future edition of FAITH.

Christmas
Hymn
Silent Night
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin, mother and Child
Holy Infant, tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, Holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy Holy Face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake, at the sight
Glories stream from heaven above
Heavenly, hosts sing Hallelujah.
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.

The Story Of How
Silent Night Came To Be!
“Silent Night” is perhaps the
most famous and beloved
Christmas carol of all time,
Dear Member. We thought it
would be nice to tell the story
here about how it came to be.
Its lyrics began as a poem
written Dec. 23 or 24, 1818, by the
pastor of a small church near
Salzburg, Austria. The pastor
was on a trip, and upon returning to the church he learned the
sanctuary’s organ was broken.
There was no way to repair
the organ in time for Midnight
Mass and members of the
church’s congregation feared
there would be no music that
night!
Can you imagine what a tough
spot the pastor found himself in,
Dear Friend? What could he possibly do to ensure the Christmas
Eve mass was the kind of service his parishioners were
expecting?
Well, the pastor took his poem
to a local music teacher and
musician who also played in the
church, and asked him to match
the words to a melody that could
be played on a guitar.
The musician worked all day
on the piece and finished it in
time for Silent Night to be performed for the first time that
night in 1818 at Midnight Mass.
That simple song, written to
be accompanied by a simple
instrument, quickly gained
favor throughout Austria. It was
translated into English in 1863,
and brought to America in 1871.
So, Dear Member, each year as
we celebrate the beauty and
spirit of Christmas, let’s take a
moment to appreciate one of the
most beloved carols ever written
to mark its spiritual meaning.
As you sing its words, think of
how the pastor and musician
from nearly 200 years ago made
the best of a bad situation to create an iconic piece of music that
inspires people today.
May we truly take to heart the
words of Silent Night and may
its message live on through our
thoughts, words, and deeds at
Christmastime and beyond.

New Year’s Request
“Give Thanks!”
I came to the U.S. in 2007, and
since I am retired I don’t work.
My Prosperity Harvest Plan
does the work for me! I wouldn’t
want to be without it, or Faith
Magazine. I give thanks to the
good Lord for the day I discovered Life-Study Fellowship!
Dear Lord, for this coming year
Just one request I bring,
I do not pray for happiness,
Or any earthly thing.
I do not ask to understand
The way Thou leadest me,
But this I ask: Teach me to do
The thing that pleaseth Thee.
Lucille C., New York
“His Blessings”
I want to know Thy guiding voice,
To walk with Thee each day,
Dear Lord make me swift to hear
And ready to obey.
I never thought it would be possible to put aside a little money
each day, but Fellowship’s
Prosperity Harvest Plan has
showed me how! I thank God
each night for His blessings as I
use the plan.
And thus the year I now begin
A happy year will be,
If I am seeking just to do
The thing that pleaseth Thee.
The Future Will Be Brighter
With Our Prosperity Plan!
B. H., Indiana
Were you facing financial
hardships
yesterday,
Dear
Member? How about today? Is
your financial picture just as
murky now?
If you said “yes” to those two
questions — what about tomorrow and the next day? Will they
be better? Well, they could be
much more promising if you try
out Fellowship’s Prosperity
Harvest Plan!
This is a plan that offers one of
the biggest benefits you can
receive from Fellowship, and it is
absolutely free.
Each day as you use the
Prosperity Harvest Plan you’ll be
asking the Lord to bless your
own efforts and to lead you
toward success and happiness.
You’ll be saying the Special
Prayer that is a part of this plan,
and you’ll be observing a set of
simple rules which are stepping
stones to a better, more abundant
life!
Isn’t it well worth trying, Dear
Member? There’s no charge or
obligation involved. Just include
a brief note next time you write
to Fellowship’s offices and say
you want a free Prosperity
Harvest Plan mailed to you.
Use it as instructed, and see if
it doesn't make your future look
a lot better and brighter!

“You Can Call Upon The Lord
For Help And He Will Answer!”
thee, and shew thee great and
mighty things, which thou knowest not.”
I am a witness that you can call
upon the Lord God, for help, and
He will answer and show up on
time. I’ve sought His guidance
many times.
His Son, Jesus, is a miracle
worker, too. He is my rock, my
fortress and my shield. He is
everything to me. He holds the
power of Heaven and Earth in
His Hands, and is all-knowing
and always available.
Yes, God has bestowed so many
blessings upon me and my family
that I can’t even count them. I
could write a book about them.
Whenever I feel a little down, I sit
down and talk to the Lord
through prayer. It doesn’t take
long before I feel the warmth of
His caring presence, and my spirits are lifted.
I am delighted to be part of your
organization as well. I try to
introduce and tell as many people as possible about Life-Study
Fellowship. I think of you as the
modern day disciples and ambassadors of the Lord, distributing
His message around the World.
You are truly a godsend, and I
want to let you know that I love
you always! Please just keep on
doing God’s work, and may He
bless and keep you in His care.
Dear Fellowship Friends,
I am so happy to write and tell
you that I have been a Member of
Fellowship for 37 years! Your
beautiful Faith Magazine, and all
the books and literature and
prayers you’ve sent me taught
me how to pray. I appreciate all
my Fellow Members around the
World praying with me, too. This
pleases God.
I’ve learned by searching the
Scriptures that God’s Word is
sweeter than any honeycomb,
and that prayer is the key to the
Kingdom of Heaven, and faith
unlocks the door.
I know I can call upon Jesus
anytime. His “phone line” is

Thanks For Being Part Of
Our 75 Years Of FAITH!
Good Friends are people you
can rely on for support in good
times and bad. That describes
You perfectly, Dear Member, for
it is the wonderful support from
folks like you that enables us to
keep

Faith
Magazine. We hope you have
enjoyed this issue. We put a lot
of care into each edition, so let
us know how well you liked it.
Contributions

the
Fellowship engine humming
along, There’s never a charge
for FAITH, so every donation we
receive is vitally important. We
want to continue spreading the
word about the benefits of a positive and prayerful life, so if
you’re able to help us in that
effort, we will be most grateful.
For 75 years, that support
model has worked. Let’s keep it
going for another 75! Please
write us and let us know how
we, and you, are doing!
