In A New Light
“I was beginning to see the people of Watervalley in a new light. No doubt, events and ideas of the larger world did influence their days. And while they still looked to distant horizons with a genuine curiosity, they chose to hold tight to what they valued most–agriculture, family, and faith; not out of fear or ignorance, but from a deeply felt conviction born of life’s joys and hardships. Their tradition of hard work, their love of the soil, and their tough mindedness found an exulted voice.”
–Dr. Luke Bradford reflecting on what he has learned about the people of Watervalley.
