From Jane Carter Handly: Dearest Moravian Sisters... I still bask in the beauty of all of you and the true difference you make in this world. Being at Laurel Ridge was supposed to be a retreat for you...and that is what I planned. You can't imagine how delighted I was that the retreat was a blessing for me as well. I came away renewed, inspired, energized and filled with joy because of you. Thank you! Wrenn Conrad has been my friend since 1979. I have loved and respected her every day since I met her.
