His many friends in the United States and Canada will undoubtedly join in swelling the large volume of prayer locally that, if it be His will, the Lord will grant at least partial restoration, so as to permit His servant to continue to distribute the precious nuggets of biblical truth which have always characterized Bro. Crocker's unfolding of the Word."
