Be SURE to be there Wednesday afternoon to vote for these three fine men. Please DO NOT GO HOME EARLY. Have someone else handle prayer meeting if necessary. Stay the whole course, right up until adjournment. What would you think of a runner who just walked away from the track before the race was finished? Don't be like that runner. Win, lose, or draw ... be faithful till the end.
