Dear Friends,

Greetings as another year draws to a close. We are thankful to have this opportunity to give an update from Haddington House and you will no doubt notice a theme in this issue of our newsletter. We have decided to concentrate on the theme of library development for theological education and training – one of the four aspects of our ministry. Books may not audibly speak, but they actually do speak! Libraries may be quiet places, but they are places where lives are transformed.

 

However, before we go to the theme of library work, we would like to give thanks to the Lord for the work of Christina Lehmann on the occasion of her retirement from Haddington House.

Dr. Jack Whytock, Director
