CELEBRATING YOUR RETIREMENT
CONGRATULATIONS AND BEST WISHES!
REVEREND ALFRED D. JONES & LADY E. MAE JONES

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race
and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me, the task of testifying to the

good news of God's grace. - Acts 20:24

REVEREND & MRS. STANLEY S. DAWSON SR.





TO MY FRIEND OF MANY YEARS!

A Good friend is my nearest relation! Best friends are like diamonds,
precious and rare. False friends are like leaves, found everywhere!

CONGRATULATIONS

Continue to let your light so shine before men that they
may see your good works and glorify our Father which

is in Heaven.
