brochure of a Training event held at Iliff. It is only the cover of a brochure, but it brought to mind the vastness of the Crimson Line and the gratitude for Clarence and Shirley Heckman Snelling, who each were part of spreading our work with local churches
at various times. <br>
<br>
I hope others can add to that history. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
