It is just a habit in which friendship is renewed and love wells up in the heart ; gifts are given and received; and friends and families gather together. But , for many people, this is all. After Christ- mas the daily round of tasks will have returned and Christmas will be only a happy memory. Why is it that many never see anything deeper than the re- awakening of half- forgotten friendships? How many of us ask ourselves what is the meaning .of it all? I feel there is nothing this world needs more today than to go back to Bethlehem. It is' time to listen again to the Christmas messageand the angels' song which is too often drowned out by the noise and confusion of the world about. What is this Christmas message? There are many notes which might be sounded; notes of joy and gladness inister's stun Y in which we hear again the story retold of the Birth off the Christ Child; a story of peace and goodwill among men. Yet the importance of this story to us is not something of the past but a fact of the present and the future. God's love was seen in that He sent His Son into the world, not only because He cared, about the Jews and the Gentiles; His, love is for all mankind, rich and poor, black and white, good and bad, Capitalist and Communist; for all people living in every age. Christmas is a time to mark this fact and in worship we allow Christ to enter fully into our lives; healing, saving, enabling us to give and to live for others, even as He lived and dies for us. Thus we do not need to shut our eyes to the harsh reality of everyday life to know Him present. Indeed, those who have been most aware of their limitations, who have suffered most, have often been most aware of His Presence. For instance, Dietrich Bonhoffer was such an one. Some of his most remarkable writings were done in a Nazi prison camp - yet he never lost faith. Christmas need not mean looking back, however, and shutting our eyes to the hard facts Area obituaries EDNA JESSIE POTTER An area native, Edna Jessie Potter, died at J-Iuronview on November 28.

The truth of Christmas is that God chose to make His life among men in our world, and not as it might have been. He will be present with us in our celebration of the Nativity, when we bring with us our joys and our sorrows, . our our strengths and weaknesses, making our feeble offering of our- selves, that we may serve Him in His world. He will be with us as we go out to give and to serve in His name to a world that badly needs a Saviour. And what of the future? What hope is there for peace, joy and good will among men? True, man has learned very little about achieving peace over the years. But our hope for 'the future does not lie in the possibility that men will grow wiser or better. Our hope lies in the certainty that God, having shown His love by Turn to page 9A i SUPERIOR MEMORIALS E•TAlbLON D OMSO YEARS Godorleh Aram R•pr•sontoply ROBERT McCALLUM 11 Cambria Road Godorich 524-7345 Clinton-S•oforth Area R•pr•s•ntotiv MICHAEL FALCONER 153 High Stro•t Clinton 482-9441 FULL GOSPEL BUSINESS MEN'S FELLOWSHIP BREAKFAST AT CANDELIGHT RESTAURANT BAYFIELD ROAD GODERIQH, ONT. on SAT., Dec 9th at8:30a.m. EVERYONE WELCOME BREAKFAST $3.50 PLEASE PHONE TO CONFIRM YOUR ATTENDANCE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE 524-8842 524-6543 NEXT MONTH'S MEETING SAT., Jan 13th Lovell McGuire THIS MONTH'S MEETING, SAT., Dec 9th GUEST SPEAKER: Rev.
