[Faith-talk] Serving the Lord as old age advances

[John J. Boyer]

It's great to hear about so many older people who continue to serve the 
Lord even as age advances. I've been looking for encouragement, because 
i find it hard to get excited about anything. I put a similar message on 
the nfb-seniors list but got no response.

Blessings,
John
