Horticulturalists discuss fixing up evaporator hill The Auburn Horticultural Society meeting was held on Wednesday, May 13 at 8 p.m. at the Community Hall with a good attendance. Missionary youth attend rally Living up to one's potential was the message Pastor Came brought to the Auburn Missionary Church on Sunday, May 17. Scripture was II Peter 1: 1 11. In verse three it states, “His divine power has given us everything we need for life and goodliness.” Because life is so short it should be full. Doctors and surgeons use their potential for helping and healing but some people just lounge through life. In the Psalms it says “God crowned man with glory” so why use our potential for God’s glory. Saul of Tarsus was a very learned man but his ability was nothing until he met Jesus. He became a new creation; the old had gone. Some marriages cannot go on because marital problems are spiritual problems. The young people of Auburn Missionary Church spent the holiday weekend attending ‘Pitch and Praise’ at Stayner where approximately 1200 young people would be there praising the Lord and studying the Bible.
