PLEASE NOTE: THE STARRETT CATALOG, (SEE PHOTOS) IN THIS LISTING IS NOT INCLUDED WITH THE SCRIBER!   We've been called for full time Foreign Missions to live in Bihar, (Northeast-near Nepal) India and to be salt and light to the Dalit people group  called the "Untouchables" in this spiritually dark area known as the "graveyard of missions" in the 10/40 window of un-reached people groups in this region. India's Dalits are the supreme victims of human civilization and for the last 3,000 years they have endured spiritual, physical, economic, cultural & political dehumanization. The Bible says, "Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30. "Man is born with his back toward God. When he truly repents he turns right around and faces God." (Dwight L. Moody) Thank you for your bid. Please watch our on-going item listings on eBay!
