UCW anniversary Church service The 25th anniversary service of the Rev. K. Teddy Smits was in charge - of the regular church service on Sun- day morning. Rev. Smits told the children a story. Two shepherds in the highlands of Scotland were in.charge of their two flocks of sheep when a thunderstorm came up. Both men took their flocks to a cave where the sheep became mixed up. When the storm was over, one of the shepherds went outside and started to sing a special call tune. All his sheep suddenly started to leave the cave. Later on, .the other.shepherd called his sheep out. They knew their shepherd's voice. Times -Advocate, September 23, 1987 Page 13 to craft shop Jesus tells us that we know our shepherds voice out of all other voices. We sang the children hymn "Jesus, Friend of Little Children". In the sermon, the Rev. T. Smits had taken as his text the words spoken by Judah, an older brother of Joseph in Genesis 44: verse 34. "How can I go back to my father -if the boy is not with me'.'" The brothers of Joseph had been selfish and jealous when they were young. Their father Jacob. had `always favoured Joseph, their step brother. One day they sold Joseph to 'slave dealers, en route to Egypt. • When the brothers are in Egypt. years later. to buy grain during a period of great drought, they had learned to place the needs of their old father and their brother first. - The same was true of the Christians in Macedonia. They were -very poor, and their mountainous country was not as pro- sperous as the congregations in Minor Asia, where trade and commerce had brought prosperity. But when the small congregation in Jerusalem appeals for financial help. the people in Macedonia gave more than they could afford. Important visitors to this continent ' often remark on the great spirit of materialism that has become part of many lives. A life becomes richer when we can learn how to deny ourselves and follow Christ on His toad of selfgiving. l'ersonals Bill-Itohde returned home.. n 'Tues day after having been a patient in University hospital.
