Judith Henry, with red string tied around her finger, told children it was to remember. She showed them the communion bread and grape juice. This is for us to remember the bread was for the broken body of Jesus, while the grape juice reminds us of His blood shed for us. Because there is no body hanging on our cross, we remember He is alive. Nick Murray, playing his guitar, sang "On Which side of Jesus are You?" with a picture of the crucifixion projected on the wall. Rev. C.J. Williams said we rejoice at Christmas because Jesus was born, at Easter because He died and rose again, but the greatest rejoicing of all will be when He comes again.

On Old Testament times, Joseph foreshadowed Christ's love In the quality of forgiveness he showed towards his brothers who sold him into slavery, towards Potiphar's wife whose false accusation lost him his job and sent him to fall, and towards his fellow prisoner who failed to return Joseph's kindness with the practical help Joseph had requested. Karen continued the theme of forgiveness pointing out that the meaning of some of the Greek words include such ideas as to set free, to let go, to cancel and to pardon. "We have the power to forgive people or to bind them by our unforgiveness," said Karen. She used the story of the woman taken in adultery to show the contrast between the Pharisees' self- righteous criticism and Jesus' forgiving love. The story of the un- forgiving steward, forgiven his vast debt, yet demanding the last penny from his debtor is a picture of many of us today who are ready to accept God's forgiveness yet fail to forgive others. Karen emphasized the importance A BLOOD DONOR AND VOL clinic volunteer Irene Lynn chec son at the Red Cross clinic at th day night.
