ried out the theme. Mrs. Noble
gave a reading and Mrs. Gowdy
read scripture.
The worship service returned
listeners to that first Good Friday
when there was darknll�ss over
the land until the ninth hour. It
�
seemed as though love had lost
the fight and good had been over-
come by evil. On Easter, it be-
came clear that Calvary was a
victory, the battle had been won
by God.
Easter never fails to bring its
message of hope and assurance.
So much irreverence and immor-
ality are on the rampage that
people's faith is being under-
mined. Christ and His Church are
being left out.
Easter is both an historical fact
and a present experience. We
celebrate the resurrection in vain
unless the heart within us is cry-
ing, "Christ Is Risen ! " It is this
living Christ who is our world's
hope and strength.
In a closing poem the leaders
stressed the importance of pray-
ing that God's will be done, as did
Jesus that night in Gethsemane.
The business was convened by
leader Mrs. George Underwood.
