I posted 4 times on the Vietnamese celebrations for Tet (their New Year), two of those posts drawing attention to the widening gap between rich and poor in the midst of greater prosperity. I hope that fellow Methodists will be able to find the time to read all four posts and join their prayers with ours to make poverty history .
