E. SUMMERS At the United Church Rev. Elwood Morden was in charge of the Palm Sunday Service, and entitled his sermon . "What kind of King?"

At St. Thomas Anglican Church Rev. F.G. Braby of Stratford conducted the morning prayer service for Palm Sunday, • and entitled his sermon "Teach us how to Pray". Prayer is effective, more things are wraught by prayer than any other way, said Rev. Braby. God limited His authority over us, when He gave us our life to live, and if we need help, we are to ask Him. At the • Granton Com- munity Bible Church Rev. Glen Fretz spoke from Phil. 212-13. These verses give us an understanding of the Christian's work , although trusting Christ is the only way to have fellowship with God, good works' are the evidence that Christ is at work within us. As Christians we need to remember that we have the power of the One who created the universe, of the One who never slumbers or sleeps within us. We need to pray "Lord, make me willing to be made willing to care deeply about others and to do your will in every circumstance, said the speaker.
