“Bob Leland said you would know what to do with this."With those few words, the young man handed me the piece of paper and walked away. He gave it to me just before the start of one of the services at New Brunswick Bible Institute. Looking at the paper, I saw that it was folded and stapled, with “Pastor Ray Pritchard” writte…
