Masons parade to Sunday service Members of the Wingham Masonic Lodge, AF and AM, held a parade to St. Paul's Anglican Church on Sunday for the service of Morning prayer. Rev. T: K. Hawthorn welcomed the Masons and since this was Whitsunday in the church year, spoke in his sermon on the com- ing of the Holy Spirit to the dis- ciples at the Feast of Pentecost. He `pointed out that for Christians, the gift of the' Holy Spirit or Comforter, which Jesus had promised, ' should be as important as Christmas or Easter, since the Holy Spirit makes up the third person in the Trinity. Without the Holy Spirit or belief in God's presence, one could believe in a Creator or source, and that Jesus of Nazareth lived and died and is just a memory passed down from one generation to another; but the excitement of the events as recorded the Acts of the Apostles, the witness, the love and the power, are available to us today as they were then, "We do not come to church Sunday by Sunday to worship a dead God,” he said. "We come to meet a God who is living, present and active among ust" Mr. Hawthorn closed by saying we do not neglect the Holy Spirit by failing to refer to Him. We do not guarantee` it by rattling off a prayer before a meeting, but we do neglect the Holy Spirit when we fail to see and co-operate with' the activity of God in the world • • and that is not just a matter of neglect, it is the difference between life and death. Mr. Elmer Walker, 'Worshipful Master, read the first lesson and Mr. Scott Reid the second. During the ,service the junior choir sang the hymn, "God loves a Cheerful Giver" and during the offertory the senior choir sang the anthem, "0 God of Peace".
