annual Vesper Service at Lucknow United

Masks and Me". The service ended with
each CGIT member and leader leaving the
darkened Sanctuary carrying a lighted
candle.
"We miss the spirit of Christmas if we
consider the incarnation as an indistinct and
doubtful, far off event unrelated to our
present problems. In love alone - the love of
God and the love of man - will be found the
solution to all the ills which afflict the world
today". Harry S. Truman
Students at Lucknow Christian School presented their Christmas concert of recltadons and
songs at the Lucknow Christian Reformed Church December 16. Marianne Van Goor's grade
1 class presented an animated version of their song. [Photo by Sharon Dietz]
