Bowman BRUSSELS 1 Church Notes Melville Church ""Phe Transfiguration of Christ," Luke 9 : 24-28, was the paster's sub- ject in Melville Church, last Sabbath morning. In this scene, we see Christ in Hie highest form as the Messiah. This was the highest point in the spir- itual experience of °hist and it enabl- ed Him to solve some of His most difficult problems, We can learn les- sons from the transfiguration scene : (1) There are times when we reach the highest point in our personal ex- perience. At these times, we want with us the companionship of only our closest friends. (2) The transfig- uration scene was a prayer meeting. Christ with histuree companions went up to the mountain for prayer and meditation, and His companions caw Ohiist in a more glorified form than ever before, If we come to our church services in the spirit of prayer, we ehall see Christ revealed in a more glorified form than we have ever seen , him before, and it will help us solve some of our own problems. Christ I could not cnntinne doing the work which he was doing without being' transfigured before His friends, and so if we live the Chtistien life, we cannot help lint stand transfigured be. • fete our friends, St. John's Church On Sunday, Oct, 14th, St, John's' Anglicrtn Church held its annual Harvest Thanksgiving servirec, Rev, F 0.
