I'm disappointed! I ordered this training packet particularly for "Six Ways to Nurture Marriage on the Mission Field". This article was not included in the down-loadable packet, but was replaced with another article. Though there is still good information in this material, I did not receive the desired article. Can you send me this article by Randy Bishop?
