More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of. The mutual broadcasting system in cooperation with Family Theater Incorporated presents the Windbank, starring Hal Perry, the great gilder sleeve and Beatrice Benadere.

And that the greatest contribution we as parents can give to our country is that of raising our families and our children to be God respecting, God loving and prayerful citizens.
