LEADERSHIP QUOTE: "Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later." O. Mandino. Here is a humorous bonus by that great baseball player and philosopher, Yogi Berra, to lighten your day: "Pair up in Threes.". Yogi said this to the players during one spring training.
 
My desire for you this week is that you plant well so that the harvest is great. 
In His Majesty's service, Pastor Darrell.
