Dear Friends of Littlefolks,

   A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS PRESENT!  2415 books, "I Just Know",  were delivered December 2nd, and we began selling quickly.  Within one week I had distributed 572 books.  While I was driving up I35 into Kansas, a woman called from WIchita, KS.  I delivered a book to her, and immediately she wanted 10 rather than one.  This has become very common. 

   A Sunday School class bought a case (52) to give out, one hospice bought a case (52) to give.  Hospitals, gift stores bought to resale, and individuals bought for extended family members.  Selling these at cost was such a blessing.  Expenses I had not seen are now being calculated, but we were not hurt selling low.  This made it available to more, and offerings came in to cover the small amount.  We continue to keep the price as low as possible hoping to make it available to more folks.  BUT we must sell at a retail price because shops will not compete with us selling much lower than they can.  Of course, they must make money, and money we receive above cost goes back into more products. THIS IS MINISTRY!

   By December 31st I knew we needed to reorder.  The books that arrived on Dec 2nd were almost gone.  Tempted to purchase 10,000 I decided that would be a test of faith for storage, as well as finances.  With several radio interviews planned, stores eager to sell, and meetings planned, I hope for a 3rd printing soon.

  WHAT ELSE?  One woman said, "Is there a sequel coming?"  I was surprised, and pleased because there are some thoughts in my heart.  The board encouraged me to also consider reading the book on CD to put in the back of the book.  A publisher recently looked at the book and said, "The only thing missing is a sound bite in the back!"  OKAY! That, too, will come soon, we hope!

   I've accepted an invitation from SW Kansas Hospice who invited me to attend a September workshop with them.  This is with a highly respected grief authority.  Could it be the farm will work into grief ministry, too?  This is a very exciting time in my life.  Perhaps getting older isn't so bad!!!

   YOUR GIFTS CONTINUE TO BE VALUABLE.  Thank you for being involved big time!  Because of your donations I am able to accomplish so much more.  Your donations keep the daily bills paid and provide for more opportunities to minister.  I DO "[. . .thank my God] for your fellowship -- your sympathetic co-operation and contributions and partnership -- in advancing the good news (the Gospel) . . ."  Philippians 1:5 Amplified Bible
