Moses, the man of God who led the children of Israel from the land of Egypt to the promised Land is considered to be one of the greatest men in old Testament times.

Wlienhewas a baby, he was taken by the daughter of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and trained to become the greatest nation on earth at that time. When he became a man, he had to make a decision, namely, whether to become the King of Egpyt, or to go back with the children of Israel, and suffer affliction, and be true to God. Here is the decision which he made. By faith, Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaohs daughter; choosing rather to suffer afflicting with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; es- teemmg the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt. For he had respect unto the recompense of the rewarii By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who Is Did it pay Moses? It certainly DID.

Not only was he a great success in this life, but great is his eternal reward In Heaven when Jesus was here on earth, 1500 years after the death of Moses. Moses and Ell- jali (another great man of God Vitio had been taken to Heaven In a chariot of fire) met and talked with Jesus on the mount of Transfiguration. Not only had he been in Heaven for 15CW years, but also he will spend Eternity there reaping his reward for making his great decision and his faithful life; while if he had made the decision for Egypt, he probably would have been lost. Millions of lives, both in CHd and New Testament times have proved to be a real success In their lives, because they have made that right decision for their lives. You will have to make your decision.

For example, I am fij'v the proud owner of a beautiful First Promise Ring. datlig Billy Chuck Crocker and he surpised me with it last Friday. Someofyou might know his uncle, Billy Asbell, been an advert izer of ours for a long time. Anyway, I am overjoyed with my ring.

I think you would exactly call this shoppmg, but I ran across the craziest Ixinch of people rve met in a long time. I went over to A-1 Am- tHilance to seU them an ad on Thursday afternoon. They aren't really crazy they are so funny that they make your stoma.h to listen to them. The first person I met was, I found out later, was Ray Anderson. Actually, a girl! Where she ever got a nATie like that never know, but she is a very nice lady Then I met Penny Hacker, She is the new owner of the Ambulance Service.

The first thing Noticed about her was her pretty hair; she seems extremely capable ofhandling an amtMjlance service, though. She does have a manager to help her, he even helped us make up the ad you see below. His name is Welcion Eason, and he is the new manager for A-L There are six drivers and four attendants who make up the rest of this highly qualified staff. The drivers are Wel- ckm, Pete Stamper, Charlie Dodd, Woody Eason, Steve Wilson, and Charles Garrett. The attendants are Ronnie McDaniels, Rick Connaway, Rcainie Sheilds and Paul Gately.

These are a fine bunch of boys who attend the various colleges around Waco when they working. I would like to tell offer and even a little history, workuig. I would like to tell you about the service they can offer and even a little history. I asked Penny when the service was founded, and it was so long ago they even settle on a specific year, but they did tell me that it has been consolidated and improved upon to become what it is today. They are the only Ambulance service is not connected with a funeral home, and they can go anywhere.

Of course, this gives you more complete service in case of emergency. They have six ambulances are fully equipped with maxiumum services and even air-conditioning. All of their drivers are first aid qMalified, too. Three of the ambulances are emergency vehicles and the other three are transfer coaches. In case of mass catastrophe, the emergoicy vehicles can have a stretcher hung 10 it so astocarry morepeople.

Penny proudly told me that the new ambulance they are getting will be equipped with everything is possible. Penny has only been the owner for four mcKiths and I was curious to know why or how a woman could end up in this business. She said she just became more and more tascm- ated by the business. Her interest grew until she found herself with A-L Penny takes most of the calls herself and relays them to the ambulances. says that her maui plan for the future is to upgrade their service and to give complete service and comfort to all their customers.

Visitors are welcome any time to see the officers and meet Penny and ail the employees. Also, they will be glad to have any organizations or church groups give them a call and they will be glad to come and give them a free demonstration.
