AuburnThe news from Junior choir sings at Knox United Compiled by Mildred Lawlor Phone 526-7589 Wooden cross carried into church At the Good Friday service at Auburn Missionary Church, Helen Baumbach sang a very fitting solo “Were you there?” The service was also highlighted by Carrie Bakker and Bruce Jardin carrying in a huge wooden cross constructed by R. Bowman Custom Carpentry. On Easter Sunday, April 19 the wooden cross was beautifully deco­ rated with spring flowers. The choir sang a very appropriate number “The Empty Tomb” and Pastor Came's message, “The Stubborn Stone” was taken from Matt. 27: 57-66 and Matt. 28: 1-15. The tomb had a stone at its entrance and it was sealed. Pilate gave them a guard of seasoned soldiers and the Pharisees sealed the tomb. Perhaps God smiled at. their efforts but today there is still the stubborn stone of sin and all of the human race has been infected. There is the stubborn stone of death and death stands as a mighty con­ queror. The stubborn stone of the grave is strong in its challenge but all the stones give away to the con­ quering Christ.
