Loretta Conwell - 101 and counting!


This woman will be 102 years old in September! She has lived through things that most of us have only read about. She remembers the first time she ever heard a radio broadcast, and she remembers that it was at a friends house, and she remembers the friends name, and she remembers what a strange experience it was to hear voices coming from a box, and she remembers not being able to shop in the fancy stores, and she remembers being able to buy the same coat from the window uptown at a much lower price downtown! And she remembers that when she finally got to go into that fancy store uptown, nobody would wait on her.

And I can imagine a world where no person anywhere could possibly see that wonderful face and not understand what God is all about! Thank you Loretta!
