A lex Taylor guest
at Goshen service
Goshen Church was filled
on Sunday in celebration of
their anniversary. Former
minister Rev. Alex Taylor
was.the guest preacher, and
based his sermon "Why Not
Give Up?" on the story of the
prophet Elijah who, when. he
had given up, received a
message from God "not in the
storm, the earthquake or the
fire, but in a still small
voice''.
There has been talk
periodically' for years of dos-
ing our little churches and
joining surrounding churches,
but always there have been
members who would not give
up, even when attendance
was low and the minister
found it discouraging.
While large revivals have
their place, Mr. Taylor main-
tains that the strength of the
church is in the people who
are faithful in quietly doing
the tasks required of them.
He claims if members will
take their faith "out of
mothballs" and put it into
practise daily, including
regular attendance at wor-
ship, our little churches will
remain strong. Otherwise we
may hear "Where is MY
church?"
