Eden was the first garden in the Bible. It was .perfect, as God made it. with the tree -of life and the tree of knowledge in it. Adam looked after this beautiful garden alone, until God made Eve to be a helpmate for him. God commun- ed with them in this perfect setting. But sin entered this perfect garden when Adam and Eve disobeyed God. They had to leave this beautiful garden in Genesis 3:23-24.

Pieter Schinkleshock read Psalm 89:1 opening the Sunday morning ser- vice before leading the singing. Ile in- vited all the children to come up to the front, to lead them in action chorus Praise Ye the Lord. Rev. Roger Mason ministered from Luke 1:3:10-17, a record of the con- troversy between the Pharisees and Jesus on His healing on the Sabbath day. Jesus' healing ministry delivered people from demons, emo- tional problems. healed their bodies, and saved them. Jesus gave His disciples authority and power to do what He was doing. Jesus was willing to heal the sick, as Ile is today. In Matthew 8:1-3 a leper sort of doubted Jesus' will- ingness to heal him. Jesus answered "1 will", touched the man, and heal- ed him. Some people thick God thinks about it if they are wor But God has abundance of grace . save sin- ners. -and heal people. Jesus did not refrain from healing the non believer. Suhday evening Rev. Roger Mason conducted the service. Mr. Pieter Schinkleshock spoke from Matthew 28:16-20. The healing ministry of Jesus did not stop with the disciples, as Jesus told them He would be with them until he end of the age. Exodus 15:26 says he Lord that healelh thee". In 'Mark 16:15-18 we again read Jesus' commissioning His followers to go into all the world, and those who believe shall lay hands on the sick. and they shall recover. Jesus also told His followers to preach the gospel to everyone. and to cast out demons. in Luke 5:1-11 we see Jesus show- ing He looks after the needs of His people. To show Ile can do the im- possible, Jesus raised the widow's son in Luke 7:11-18. in Luke 9:1-6 Jesus gave His disciples authority to preach the gospel and to heal people everywhere.

It really was children's day in open season. :'Clover the Clown", enter- tained and then in Story Time her assistant "Bunny" gave the children. a lesson, I'm sure they will always remember - it was a love story. Everyone, even children enjoylove stories; "Once upon a time" a lady fell in love with a gentleman, who turned out to be a writer. As they became better acquainted she learn- ed the name of this book that her friend had written and to her dismay realized that she owned this very book, but she had never read it - the truth was. when she had tried to read it she found it not too interesting - sqme places hard to understand and - others not too believable. Now she knew the author and her love made all the difference to understanding the book. Every good story has a moral and the moral of this one is - if you find the Bible hard to read just get to know the author and love Him with all your heart and the difference will amaze you. Once communication has been established. the "happily ever after" syndrome will be assured. Next Sunday is Flower Sunday, - come and enjoy - Saturday June 6 - Community History Display and Tea at Sl.
