At the Rural Center: Saying Goodbye By Dinah Monahan Marketing 101: Be Prepared By Jerry Thacker Thank You, Elaine Williams Thank You, Elaine Williams In Romans, chapter 16, the apostle Paul is inspired by the Holy Spirit to publicly thank individuals who have been used by God to minister to others and to himself. We would like to follow that scriptural example by expressing our heartfelt gratitude to Elaine Williams, who has been the assistant editor of At the Center for all of its ten years. Her official duties in that capacity ended with this issue. Her patience and her gentleness have been a model for all of us as she undertook the huge task of administrating this publication. Her servant heart mirrors her Savior. Her love for little ones and those who minister for them and to them is genuine and humble. We know that Elaine is a blessing to the Lord as she faithfully serves Him. She will continue to assist At the Center with editing and advice when we need it. We love and appreciate her, not just for all her excellent work, but also for the wonderful woman she is. Thank you, Elaine!
