Lord, I work so hard, yet why is it so difficult to build the Montgomery Church of Christ?

Have I done something wrong?

I long to see this Church built before I leave this earth, but it seems like everything is going wrong.

My husband has sacrificed for many years for mission work and has nothing to show for it.

Can you bless us to see this Church built?

We are faithful. I have been in the Church for 38 years, and my husband, Mack Dillingham, has dedicated his entire life to the Church.

If anyone deserves Heaven, it is Mack. Lord, he has given his all, with only his dedication to you to show for it.

Is it wrong for me, as a wife, to want some things in this life—a Church, a car, and money so that we can have something to fall back on? Maybe I am asking for too much.

I work hard as a secretary at the school here in Montgomery, AL, and the mission church is on 2319 Congressman W. L. Dickinson Dr. I need your help, Lord. Please hear my prayers.

I love you dearly and am committed to your work.

Please send a blessing to the Church and to our home at 2915 Ravenwood Drive, where my husband and I live. If I am wrong, please forgive me, but you told me, Lord, to ask and seek, and we shall find.

So I, Cassandra Dillingham, am asking you to bless me and my family and, by all means, the Montgomery Church of Christ in Montgomery, AL 36109. I end this letter, God, by thanking you for all the blessings you have given me in my lifetime.

I beg you, please let us receive funds for the Montgomery Church of Christ.

Yours in Christ,
Cassandra Dillingham, Preacher’s Wife

P.S. I will never forsake you, and I know that you want the best for us. Thank you for being there when I need you.
