Those of us who have read the essays were blessed by the thoughtful evaluation of the issues made by each of you. It is obvious that a great deal of effort went into creating these essays, and we are thankful for the teachers and other adults who have guided you as young authors towards looking at these issues from a Biblical perspective. Please accept the enclosed "Precious Feet" pin as a remembrance of your participation in this contest as well as a reminder that you are a child of God and He has a plan for your life. In Christian Love,
