Roanoke fathers will be offered some training in leaving a well-written legacy of love and counsel when the growing "Letters from Dad" movement starts on Sunday, May 18, at Fellowship Community Church in Salem.

The three-year-old ministry is based on the book by the same name by Greg Vaughn, an educational film producer who lives near Dallas, Texas. Vaughn has developed a workshop program in which fathers get together and practice expressing themselves in letters intended to be read after their deaths.

Mike Walton, a volunteer at the church, said, "If you wonder if this is for you, ask yourself, 'Did your dad ever tell you he loved you? What would it have meant to you if he'd left behind a letter about that?"

The fee is $95. For more information call the church at 387-3200.
