Church churche
The regular service 411 dirit.)(
was held on Sunday with Rev.
Robert Matheson in charge.
He told the children a.story
"You Don't Have to Guess".
The sermon was entitled
"Do We Know What We're
Looking For". Traditionally
the Lenten season is a time
for repentence and penitence
for Christians in the Church.
It is a time during which we
over -concentrate on the
Cross.
We realize a sense of
aloneness or apartness from
God. Simply stated Lent is
that time of the year when we
recognize, more than at any
other time, that people tried
to subvert God's will to make
their own will supreme when
they persecuted Jesus and
placed him on the Cross.
In a very real sense Lent
has traditionally been seen as
a season in which we note a
return to chaos. We are
reminded that all there was
before God created the world,
according to the Genesis ac-
counts, was chaos.
