Fundamentally, our Lord’s message was Himself. He did not come merely to preach a Gospel; He Himself is that Gospel. He did not come merely to give bread; He said, “I am the Bread.” He did not come merely to shed light; He said, “I am the Light.” He did not come merely to show the door; He said, “I am the Door.” He did not come merely to name a shepherd; He said, “I am the Shepherd.” He did not come merely to point the way; He said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.”

Cook over moderate heat till lightly browned on the bottom. Flip & brown
the other side.  Remove & set on a plate. Repeat with the rest of the
batter, you should have 6 crepes. SAUCE: Heat margarine in a small pot. Add
onion & garlic & saute over moderate heat till onion is golden. Add

the tips protrude from the top & overlapping the halved stalks in the
centre if necessary.  Spoon a very small amount of sauce over the

other end over it.  Arrange the crepes, folded side down, in an oiled,
shallow baking dish.  Spoon remaining sauce evenly over the crepes. Bake in
