Presbyterian Church Anniversary
St, Andrew's Presbyterian Church,
Gorrie celebrated another milestone in
its history by special services on Sab-
bath last, October 11th, The day was
wonderfully fine and there was a good
attendance at both sessions. The sis-
ter congregation at Molesworth was
well represented and many from the
other local churches also joined in the
services. Beautiful flowers and good
music were inspiring features of the
occasion. Messrs Simpson and Hei-
beim of Molesworth and Miss Loreen
King of the Anglican Church, Gorrie,
assisted the choir which was led by
Mrs, L, Neilson, with Mrs. F. King
at the organ.
Rev. Hugh Jack of First Presby-
terian Church, Seaforth, delivered two
inspiring and helpfull addresses which
were well received. His text in the
morning was Gal. 6:14. "God forbid
that I should glory save in the cross
of our Lord Jesus Christ." Unlike
some other Jews who gloried in rites
and ceremonies to which they were
trying to turn the Galatians, Paul
gloried only in the cross of Christ
(1) because he was deeply conscious
of human sin and knew by experience
that only by Christ's death on Cal-
vary could sin be forgiven and the
life regenerated and built up to the
highest standard and (2) because the
cross was the supreme proof of God's
love to man "God so loved that He
gave." Sin is at the root of all suf-
fering and misery. It is hard ;or
some to believe that God is a God
of love in the midst of the horrors of
to-day, but it was harder in Paul's
time, Anniversary ought to be a time
of heart-searching to see how we
measure up to Christ's standard and
what progress we' are making in the
Christian Life, Luke 5:4, "Launch
out into the deep," was the subjeet
of the evening discourse, The dis-
ciples had reasonable ground for their
discouragement. They were exper-
fenced fishermen, had toiled all night
(the right time for fishing in those
Waters) and yet had no success,
Christ's words were meant to teach
both the mand us that failure Should
-never be allowed to hinder fresh ef.,
fort. Every honest 'attempt gives in-,
creased strength, StleceSS may be hr
nearer than We think so let its keep
till trying. Often titr aim is not high
enough. We are content to dwell hi
the shallows Instead of launching out
IMO the deep things of the Spirit. The

key to success is obedience. When
Peter got to the point ,where he could
say, "Nevertheless at Thy wo5,d I will
let down the net", success was assur-
ed. The purpose of the church is to
lead men to Christ who only can
change defeat into success. Lasting
international peace can only come
from the working of the Holy Spirit
