Robert Matheson was in charge of the Bible Society Sunday Church service. We read Psalm 116 responsively. The children's hymn When He Cometh was sung and Rev. Matheson told the children -a story en- titled "The Good News Reading Programme''. The choir sang "0 Mighty God" ac- companied by the organist Miss Agnes Bray. The scripture lesson was read from Acts 2:14, 22-32, 1 Peter2: 19-25, Luke 24:13-35 and the sermon was entitled "We All Have A Share in The Journey To Emmaus". In the Gospel lesson we discover two travellers heading from Jerusalem to -Emmaus. These travellers are locked into their own world. - When they come upon a" stranger along the journey they let him in on the news of the remarkable Easter story of the empty tomb. We. all too often, are locked into our own small world and fail to see the pictures (mission) God places before us. We tend to see only the sights on the journey of 'life we are most com- fortable with - we do not have room for anything challenging, out of the ordinary, or which causes us discomfort. Our passages of scripture all re- , mind us of how human beings fail Gat and God's will. Today, Bible Society Sunday. we are reminded of our role m carrying the Good News of the Kingdom to others. We are reminded to give up the comfortable aspects of our life -journey in order to better dy the will of Gad.
