The children's story was en- titled "Forget About Your Ancestors." The choir rendered an an- them "This Is My Father's World" accompanied by the organist Miss Agnes Bray. Rev. Robert Matheson read the Scripture Lesson taken from Acts 5:27-42, Revela- tions 5:11-14, John 21:1-19. The minister's meditation was entitled The Make -Up of Minacles. Miracle have three basic, interrelated com- ponents; surprise, power and love. Christ's entire life is a reflection of miracles at work. His birth and resurrection were both examples of surprise. By allowing Himself to be arrested and placed on the cross, Jesus demonstrated the power of God. He iden- tifies with the innocent and powerless victims of the world. Easter demonstrates the power of God over death. Communion was then serv- ed by members of Session and the Minister. Rev. Matheson spoke a few minutes on Len and Mary, a minute for Missions.
