longer. substituting carrots
for pumpkin in a pie. Mrs.
Morden told the members

soon be minted, and asphalt
with the addition of rubber

For the spring. Mrs. Hodgins
concluded the program with
some capsules of Wisdom.

ment," rejection, suffering,
world poverty, wars and
tragic accidents. If this is
God's world why is it in such
a mess? asked the minister.
To keep our faith we need to
know what to do.
1. Continue to serve others
who may have greater
problems than ours, which -
will make ours seem easier
to cope with, it is like the
man who complained
because he had no shoes,
then he met a man who had
no feet.
2. As we serve others and
share their burdens
sometimes our problems
disappear.
3. To keep the faith when
we have problems the
church is the place to bring
them, the church is people
helping people.

Church the Rev. Greg Smith
