Dear Gentlemen:

This week, I am sending unique and individual correspondences to each of you (and several others) regarding my November 11, 2007 letter to the First Baptist Church of Bolivar, Missouri.

Each of you possesses distinctive attributes of personality, talent, knowledge, resources and responsibilities that will assist in facilitating a resolution to the challenges outlined in my previous missive, therefore, I have chosen to address you as individuals.

You should be receiving these letters at your home or business addresses (listed above).

In the event that any of these letters should go astray, I have used the First Baptist Church of Bolivar address (316 Main Street , P. O. Box 358) as the return address.



I look forward to resolving these issues with you in a just, compassionate, and timely manner.

Thank you for your cooperation.


In the Integrity of Christ Jesus,


Marie O’Hara
