"Another Year is Dawning" - 2005

In many churches, the first Sunday of the new year wouldn’t be complete without singing Fances Havergal’s great “Another Year is Dawning”. Its words reflect the deep consecration that marked her poems. Frances considered every New Year’s Day a never-to-be-missed opportunity of rededication to Christ, and several New Year’s hymns came from her pen.

What is CCLI?

You may have seen ccli in numerous church publications and on our media images on Sunday. It stands for” Christian Copyright License Incorporated.” The church pays an annual fee in order to be able to reprint the TEXTS of many hymns and worship songs.

A View from the Fields, Jan 2005

Thank you for the cards and the gifts you gave to the Perkins’ clan. You continue to be gracious to us!

Now, we close the door on 2004 and begin 2005. I wonder what will happen in 2005? I trust 2005 will be filled with blessings one after another. But, you know, as well as I, it won’t be all blessings.
