What Others Are Saying:
"Each day I am more appreciative of For All the Saints and its influence on my own spiritual life...Thanks for your assistance. It is almost like having a long-distance spiritual director next to me!"
James A. Clark, Pastor, Dunwoody, GA
"With more than 35 years in the ministry, and now retired, I can say my search for a superior source of devotions has ended now that I have For All the Saints in hand. It has no equal."
Clifford R. Rhode, Pastor, Bethlehem, PA
"I am a 70-year-old man and have been a Lutheran all my life. A while ago (perhaps due to my age) I began to try to have a closer walk with God. For All the Saints as helped in this endeavor."
Arvid S. Herje, Raleigh, NC
"The last line in today's OT lesson: 'Your prayer to me...has been heard,' is very relevant when it comes to your marvelous publication. Many prayers have been heard enroute to publication, printing, and distribution. What a blessing it has been to thousands--and I name myself among them."
Dr. Harold C. Skillrud, Bishop Emeritus of the ELCA. Southeastern Synod
"So again, 'Thank You' and pass on the thanks to others responsible for For
All the Saints--a splendid and comprehensive devotional
aid." President David O. Paech, S. Australia District,
Lutheran Church of Australia
