Her family was sequestered at her house and a scarlet cord was hung. When Joshua attacked, that household was the only one spared. Rev. Dow conducted a discussion on risk, race, transformation, welcoming and working faith. Candace Howson presided for the business. World Mission to the Deaf no longer takes Campbell Soup labels.
