A world that needs our love

Ann Kenrick

World Monitor: A Television Presentation of The Christian Science Monitor aired a program, "The Year in Review," that looked back at the amazing events of 1990. It was a moving tribute to the resiliency of the human spirit. It showed a world of diverse peoples who weave the rich tapestry of life through flux and change, and become part of history. This is a world that clearly needs our love.

Here are a few of the stories that the program covered:

•The "pothole" men in Moscow showed the failure of a Communist dictatorship to suppress the spirit of man. The workers of STROITEL, a private cooperative formed by Vadim Tumanov—many "graduates" of the Siberian labor camps—worked night and day to repair a section of the outer ring road of Moscow. They were given a year to complete the job, and they got it done in twenty-eight days!
