Last year in United News we ran an article on "Many Hands Light Up Local Congregations." In that article we expressed our thanks for the thousands of brethren who have stepped forward to help establish a place where we can all meet and be taught God's holy truths.

As United continues to experience slow and steady growth, we have been asking the deacons and elders to help us pass the baton of truth as well as their experiences through mentoring our younger members. We have been gratified to see how many of our younger members have stepped in to learn from our older leaders in many areas. At the Passover this year, in songleading and in opening and closing prayers—in all these aspects we have noted continuous growth in this area.

As the Church grows older, we realize our youth and younger members will be the life blood of the local church organization. We want to thank everyone for making this possible at this time. And keep up the good work.
