Easter not including the Sundays. This is a period of fasting or doing without something in order to prepare for Easter. In early times some people smeared their faces with dirt so as to be recognized as persons who were fasting. There is no point in this practice. It is always necessary to prepare for Jesus' coming into our lives. Preparation includes attending and learning stories of Jesus life at Sunday School and learning through language. Each must understand a language to keep alive. Learn the meaning of faith through language. Parents pre- pare their children by example and teaching. This forms the communi- ty of the church. All learn from each other. Our learning to receive Jesus is never finished. To conclude the service the Junior choir sang the Benediction which was followed by refresh- ments and a social hour in the school room.
