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.

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.
