’"•Mrs.* Gordon McBurney then ad
dressed the meeting _and left many
thoughts to challenge and inspire. She
suggested a quiet look at reasons
for a Thankofferirtg.
We must realize that we can all be
co-workers with Christ and all have
some gifts to use and strength and
courage-are always given to carry out
our work. Time, too, is always ours.
Our lives are, filled with too many
other things, the speaker said, thus
giving rise to the question, —-Are we
helpers or stumbling blocks?
Many countries are • today hovering
between the acceptance of the evan
gelical message or the acceptance of
Communism. Canada- should be a
brotherhood of men. Instead, when
our world ignores Christ, other coun
tries wonder why. Our Freedom of
worship is important—Is it danger
ously free?
Miss Mason thanked the speaker
voicing the sincere appreciation of
this meeting.
