November 15, 1981 Dear Lin: I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your very warm cordial letter of October 22nd. It has been a source of great comfort to me to know that I still had a home base at Tenth Church and that there were people there in the form of old and new friends who were praying me through the last bad thirty-five weeks. I have to acknowledge that I have had the peace of God which passes all understanding and I know that that is for the reason of it. My very best to you. Sincerely in Christ, C. Everett Koop, M.D.
