At the start of the year each should take a new, fresh, deeply inhaled breath of spirtuallyalive air from God's storehouse, she noted, as we need a reawakening of our spiritual senses. Perhaps the church itself ought to be the leader in the annual refreshment of new goals, new guidelines, new challenges for mankind, Mrs.
