On Oct. 5, 1996 Londesboro
United Church was the scene for a
pretty wedding for Connie Jane
regarding the electives being
offered to the adult Sunday School
classes: Pastor Virgil Gingrich and
Rick Packer will co-teach a study
on Ephesians, Easter Shuart will
begin a study on the subject of
understanding teens, and Larry
Reinhart will continue to teach the
new believers' class.
Stephanie Shuart anticipated

the Christian classic, "In His
Steps," has been challenged
profoundly by the theme of that
book: "What Would Jesus Do?"
He went on to say that one
cannot do the works of God,
however, unless one has the nature
of God; according to the text,
Christians are exhorted to be like
God. Now, one cannot experience
the absolute perfection of God but

sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit,
his attitudes and his motives can be
blameless. It seems possible,
therefore, to be cast in the image of
His holiness: "Be holy, for I the
