easy to be generous with our time when we know we are going to be recognized for it When we are putting ourselves out don we expect a little praise Unfortunately caring for the elderly does not seem to bring a lot of praise or Go to a home for the elderly and see how many of them have no visitors at all Many are living on the hope that some day some member of their family may take the time to visit them It has been sold that with God no prayers are more powerful more quickly answered than the prayers of little children and the prayers of the aged Then surely no works ore more pleasing to God than works of mercy done for these people We don always have any opportunity to serve the needs of orphans and little ones But the elderly the forsaken needy and lonely widows and widowers are like the poor always with us How blessed will we If mercy shown to them brings us the blessing of the r and prayers Acting Actea postmaster Chris McMillan and Halton Hilts Mayor Peter Jointly sign a
