You on behalf of the Military and encourage every individual to consider purchasing a Prepaid Calling Card at any time. These cards can be purchased at this special website set up by the Military of Defense: https://thor.aafes.com/scs/default.aspx.

Your purchase can give hope and a Spiritual lift to those who face combat every day. Please consider this purchase anytime!

Questions about Hitchins school
I am a member of the Hitchins Preservation Society and have worked various events to raise money to renovate the Hitchins High School buildings. I was shocked to read that Mr. Isaacs had given the school to the Christian school group. It had been my understanding that he had given it to the HPS several years ago.
