Whew! Thanks JT. I had my administrations mixed up! Forgot my time sequences! I'd hate to think my personal devotions and penances have been for naught! :D-->
…I read on Friday that Rosalind Rinker died last January 11. [2001] She was 95, so most of you have no idea who she was. Rosalind Rinker visited the church where my dad was pastor sometime during 1964, while I was in high school. The impression that lingers with me is that she was a solidly built, rather elderly lady. But I did some calculations and realize that she was only a couple of years or so older than I am now! She had been a missionary in China in the 1930s and then went to work for Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, ministering to college students.
Then in the 1960s Rosalind Rinker wrote a best selling Christian book called, Prayer: Conversing with God. And that was why she came to our church--to do one of the hundreds of workshops on prayer that she led around the country.

Yes, it looks like her ministry was far-reaching, for sure...in both time and geography! (not to mention hearts)
