This was a presentation/lecture done on Rally Day, September 12, 2010 at Grace Lutheran Church, Livingston, New Jersey. The instrumental music ("Wonderful Words of Life") that accompanies this slide cast was downloaded from a free music site http://www.audiotreasure.com/mp3/Music/index.htm This site was recommended to my by my cousin brother Joe Uthup who is studying Music at Indiana University. The music/Hymn "Wonder Words of Life" (Sing them over again to me wonder word of life,..... teach me faith and duty beautiful words of life.....) is dear to me. I used to play the organ and assembled a group of my fellow students in High School, St, Therese High School (Presentation Convent), Delhi, India and organized the Morning Assembly Prayer of the school from my class (9th Std). The music was composed by Philip B. Bliss in 1874. The complete hymn (words & music) can be viewed and downloaded from the http://www.digitalhymnal.org/dhymn.cfm?hymnNumber=286
