Celebration of faith
By John Greidanus Sr.
1945 to 1985 represents 40 years of
freedom, a time when each one of us has
had the opportunity to live and make
something of ourselves.
Today we live like brothers and sisters.
We're neighbors and friends. We have
the opportunity to grow our crops, to
modernize our homes and our times.
The World War II Holocaust not only
affected the Jews. Where ever the war
hit, there was holocaust. Good and evil
were hotit there. Now, let us work for a
better tomorrow.
Clinton's Klompen Feest celebrations
are here again and the committee has
worked hard to achieve this goal. Floats
are ready, singers are practicing, times
and events are set.
The year the committee has obtained
permission from the Church Council to
use the Clinton Christian Reformed
Church on Sunday, May 19 at 7:30 p.m.
for a night of sacred music of Dutch and
English songs.
This type of event has been suggested
in the past and the Church Council was
glad to extend this idea.
The evening performance will feature
different organists, pianists, accordion
and horn players. Old time favorite songs
from Holland will be sung, along with
traditional English songs, like How
Great Thou Art. •
Dutch people will hear the familiar
lines of the traditional song, "Wij geven
het niet over, De Kasteli-jk," words that
treasure the Bible.
Many thanks to a great country that
wilcomed so many Dutch immigrants.
We as_ grateful.
