Words of the Psalmist
form theme of meeting
Hymns of praise, "Now Thank
We All Our God" . and . "The
Church's One Foundation", were
chosen for the devotional pro-
gram of the Goforth Evening
Auxiliary held Tuesday ,evening
of last week in the Upper Room of
St. Andrew's Presbyterian
Church.
The president, Mrs. Ralph
- Nixon, conducted the meeting
and was assisted by Mrs. Douglas
Lapp, Mrs. Le Palmer, 'Mrs.
Hazel Hardie and Mrs. Robert
Arbuckle. The Bible reading was
taken from Psalm 8, followed by
a meditation based 'on the
passage.
Many centuries ago, the Psal-
mist pondered the wonders �f
God's creations and. asked,
"What is man that Thou are
mindful of him and the Son of
man that Thou visitest him?" But
God is mindful of man, however
unworthy man may be. And God
did visit man. In the Person of the
little Child, God became incar-
nate.
The meditation then dealt with
another portion •of the psalm:
"What doth the Lord require of
thee to do justly, to love mercy
and to walk humbly with they
God?" The speakers said, "It is
not easy in these days of tension •
to do justly, to be merciful, to
love, to do good to those who hate
us or to pray for those who mis-
treat us. But let us remember
Christ has come; He is in His
world ! "
In closing, the speakers urged,
"Let us resolve, in this year of
opportunity, to learn of Him
through study of His Word; pray
for His help to follow in His way
and share the message of His love
with others in our own com-
munity, others in our land , and
throughout the world."
Mrs. Nixon and Mrs. Lapp- led
in prayer. The :,study book,
"Unknown Country", was then
introduced, with the explanation
that "mission is undergoing a
great change and the future of it
to most is an `unknown country'."
By means of a panel presenta-
tion, many thoughts were given
regarding the purpose of mission
to different individuals. Develop-
ment in mission ,was also dis-
cussed and the need for home
mission work in Canada was pre-
sented.
A challenge was given when
one member of the panel stated,
"It all depends on whether you
regard the church as a religious
society, designed to meet the
spiritual needs of the members,
or whether you see yourselves as
people with a mission, with some-
thing to do for other people."
After listening to the panel dis-
'cuss ,mission in every aspect, the
auxiliary divided into groups -for
discussion and deliberated over
some pertinent questions: Why
should the local church support
work in other parts of the world
when so much is needed at hotne?
Cannot churches in other
countries support their own
work? ; How can we talk about
missions and missionaries in
countries where they will not let
missionaries enter?; What has
development to do with mission?;
' Are schools and medical missions
just a come-on? ; Is violence nec-
essary for change? ; :How should
with people of oth
we dialogue th �
taiths?
• During the business portion of
the meeting, it was announced
that the display of centennial,
banners will be held in .St. An-
drew's Church the . week of
February 24 to March 3. The pub-
lic is invited to view this display.

Words of the Psalmist
form theme of meeting
Hymns of praise, "Now Thank
We All Our God" . and . "The
Church's One Foundation", were
chosen for the devotional pro-
gram of the Goforth Evening
Auxiliary held Tuesday ,evening
of last week in the Upper Room of
St. Andrew's Presbyterian
Church.
The president, Mrs. Ralph
- Nixon, conducted the meeting
and was assisted by Mrs. Douglas
Lapp, Mrs. Le Palmer, 'Mrs.
Hazel Hardie and Mrs. Robert
Arbuckle. The Bible reading was
taken from Psalm 8, followed by
a meditation based 'on the
passage.
Many centuries ago, the Psal-
mist pondered the wonders �f
God's creations and. asked,
"What is man that Thou are
mindful of him and the Son of
man that Thou visitest him?" But
God is mindful of man, however
unworthy man may be. And God
did visit man. In the Person of the
little Child, God became incar-
nate.
The meditation then dealt with
another portion •of the psalm:
"What doth the Lord require of
thee to do justly, to love mercy
and to walk humbly with they
God?" The speakers said, "It is
not easy in these days of tension •
to do justly, to be merciful, to
love, to do good to those who hate
us or to pray for those who mis-
treat us. But let us remember
Christ has come; He is in His
world ! "
In closing, the speakers urged,
"Let us resolve, in this year of
opportunity, to learn of Him
through study of His Word; pray
for His help to follow in His way
and share the message of His love
with others in our own com-
munity, others in our land , and
throughout the world."
Mrs. Nixon and Mrs. Lapp- led
in prayer. The :,study book,
"Unknown Country", was then
introduced, with the explanation
that "mission is undergoing a
great change and the future of it
to most is an `unknown country'."
By means of a panel presenta-
tion, many thoughts were given
regarding the purpose of mission
to different individuals. Develop-
ment in mission ,was also dis-
cussed and the need for home
mission work in Canada was pre-
sented.
A challenge was given when
one member of the panel stated,
"It all depends on whether you
regard the church as a religious
society, designed to meet the
spiritual needs of the members,
or whether you see yourselves as
people with a mission, with some-
thing to do for other people."
After listening to the panel dis-
'cuss ,mission in every aspect, the
auxiliary divided into groups -for
discussion and deliberated over
some pertinent questions: Why
should the local church support
work in other parts of the world
when so much is needed at hotne?
Cannot churches in other
countries support their own
work? ; How can we talk about
missions and missionaries in
countries where they will not let
missionaries enter?; What has
development to do with mission?;
' Are schools and medical missions
just a come-on? ; Is violence nec-
essary for change? ; :How should
with people of oth
we dialogue th �
taiths?
• During the business portion of
the meeting, it was announced
that the display of centennial,
banners will be held in .St. An-
drew's Church the . week of
February 24 to March 3. The pub-
lic is invited to view this display.
