We're not just sure what it was that Eddie Saxon of Brussels was requesting from Santa Claus but it looks like he had some definite ideas about what he wanted. (Photo by Langlois) WMS hears about Xmas Correspondent MRS. JOE WALKER 357-3558 In appreciative response to Mrs. Glenn -M'cKercher's invitation to the Presbyterian W.M.S. to meet at her home, 16 ladies attended. The president, Mrs. Glenn Golley, used a Christmas theme as her call to worship, followed by a Christmas . hymn. She also took charge of the devotions based on Elebrew, Chpt. 1 verse 6 and Luke 2-10,11, and asked' "What Makes Christmas?" Is it the songs, the: decorations, and the gifts?. Surely it is in knowing Christ, and showing His love. to all-- the poor, the needy, the oppressed. Christ's gift of salvation from His outstretched hands s the greatest of all gifts. With no need to work for it, we just accept it. Let us, think not of what we may get, but what we can give, or do for someone less fortunate than we. Let us sacrifice -inour giving, and worship Christ. Mrs. Beryl Kirton offeted prayer. A Christmas topic was offered by Mrs. Ross Mann; Using Luke 1:.30-33 and Luke 2: 4-7, she asked if there is. room inour hearts and in our lives for Jesus today, or is it as it was two thousand years ago--no room? We are so absorbed in the rush of daily living and in making more and more money, shuning hungry children in slum areas, pushing lonely old people into the background, and bOting ourselves, with running from one cocktail. party to another. This Christmas could we resolve to have room for Jesus in our homes, to worship with prayer and joyous carol singing, as we show concern in serving others as we accept Jesus's gifts of love, joy and peace: Reports were heard froin all secretaries, and the meeting closed with hymn singing, prayer, and tue serving of refreshments by Mrs. B. kitton, Mrs. G, Golley and MtS.
