Rev. R. G. Sach
speaks on hope
WROXETER •-- "The Door of
Hope" was the theme of Rev.
George Sach's meditation Sun-
day morning at the United
Church.
"We cannot see hope, but
Christian hope takes root and
grows," he said. Our view is
limited to our own vale of
troubles. Hope springs out of
experience when least expected.
A great student. of Europe, on
being asked what was the best
hope for Europe said, "It is not
found in Europe, but in Africa,
where the 82 -year-old Dr. Switzer
works." Dr. Switzer never
thought of himself but of what
had to be done. ,
Trials mathe way leading to
God; suff in can be redemp-
tive, Mr. Sach aid. The hypo-
crite co p his vices. We
should r s r full weight on God
and reveal o elves.
The. junior and intermediate
choirs sang "Wonderful Love" to
the new Kingston Town tune.
The , annual meeting will be
held January 26. Please note the
