From the village church of Nocton in Lincolnshire. Conducted by the Vicar, the Rev. Kenneth Healey

What does the fulfilling of God's purpose demand of us? In this third service Kenneth Healey looks again to the lessons of husbandry. The sound rule there is that giving comes before getting. Failure to put in is, in farming, worse than failure to take out. A life fulfilled also means a life given; its essential quality is love, and the proof of love is sacrifice.
