paper on the theme of Epiphany.
She said no story is more widely
known than that of the Three
Wise Men as told in St. Matthew's
Gospel. It is a favorite for child-
ren, too. " Although St.` Matthew
makes no mention of numbers,
tradition has asserted that there
were possibly three because of
the fact that they brought gifts of
gold, frankincense and myrhh.
We are also told they were_ of
different ages, young, middle
aged, and advanced in years.
They brought their gifts as suit
able for the kind of person they'
expected to find -priest, doctor
and king—and because their gifts
were accepted they concluded
Jesus would in _time fulfill all
three roles, and sa, today Jesus
appeals to all mankind.
As old age comes to meet Him
today they "find serenity in this
promise: ."I know whom I have
believed and am persuaded that ,
• He is able to keep that which I
have committed_unto Him." The
young m'n who carry the burden
of work and upon whose judge-
ment hang great issues, can only
find power to help and the rest for
which they crave if 'they are
steadied by the hand of Jesus:
"Come unto. me all ye weary and
I will give you rest."
Mrs: Bradburn asked, "Can
youth also find what it is seeking
in Jestis?" They want to change
things, to fill their. days with
exciting experiences. Its is true
the church has been largely adult
minded, yet Jesus drew a little,
child to Him. In the widerness
where He fed the multitude a lit-
tle lad was in the front of the
crowd where he could hear and
see the Teacher best.
Jesus was a man of enormous
energy and vision. If old and
young will respond today in solv--
• ing the,problems of the church
each must take ;part. The church
must express enthusiasm in its
form of worship and rejoice when
° youth feels venturesorrie in the
service of Crod.• "Let us welcoine
the wise men of tod'y; old 'age,
middle age and youth," Mrs. ;
Bradburn said.
Routine business was harried
out. The February 3 meeting will
be held in the parish room with
, Mrs. W. Connell and Mrs. W.
Henry as hostesses.
