John and Doves,
 
In addition to Deborah's lovely letter about the Amish and other letters recounting their moving response to their losses, it is fitting to know that the word Amish adds to 50. That is to say that by removing the zero, a non figure, we are left with the number for God's Grace, 5. Did the Amish not personify God's Grace under exceptionally trying circumstances?
 
Blessings,
 
Phil.
