Greetings!

Well week two has passed! This week was somewhat slower than last week schedule wise. Gordon Morris was on vacation this week and since he is the main one I will be training with, there wasn't as much activity. This week I mainly asked questions and observed what people did. I was able to gain quite a bit of knowledge and insight that way. There is a lot more to running a radio station that you would think. There are many background activities in order to keep things running smoothly.
I wanted to tell you about something interesting that happened last night. I was looking at old slides with Vic Eliason that he was putting together for a celebration of 50 years of ministry there are having for him here on October 14th. He sure had many interesting memories and stories. After that he wanted my to come into his studio where he has a piano and several organs. He played and I sang at 11:00 at night. He told me the story of how the Lord led his father, Oscar Eliason, to write the well known song, There is a Name I Highly Treasure. God poured the words of this song into his heart one day, and this song would go on to be a well loved favorite. I thought I would finish with the words of this song, and I hope we all will treasure that Name!

Yours Truly,

"A Name I Highly Treasure"
Verse: 1 I've learned to know a name I highly treasure.

O how it thrills my spirit through and through!

O precious name, beyond degree or measure,

My heart is stirred when-e'er I think of You!

Refrain: My heart is stirred when-e'er I think of Jesus,

That blessed name which sets the captive free

The only name through which I find salvation.

No name on earth has meant so much to me.

Verse 2: That name brings gladness to a soul in sorrow.

It makes life's shadows and its clouds depart

Brings strength in weakness for today, tomorrow.

That names brings healing to an aching heart.

Verse 3: That name still lives and will live on forever,

While kings and kingdoms will forgotten be.

Through mist or rain, 'twill be beclouded never,

That name shall shine and shine eternally.
