The devotional was taken by Eleanor Mansfield and opened with a hymn "Faith of Our Fathers", Eleanor's meditation told us faith enables us to contemplate the whole game rather than a single inning. One inning may go against us, but faith knows that one inning is not the end of the world. We must have faith in the future. She closed with "Lead On Oh King Eternal" and prayer. The minutes were read and the Roll call was answered with a Valentine thought or verse. Letters of thanks were read from Rothhome and the Blind Mission International.
