We don’t need to be Jeremiahs to see that this is a materialistic age which is rapidly exhausting the spiritual capital of the past. It is easy to moan about empty chiitches, particularly if we do nothing to fill them. It is easy to Complain about depressed clergy, but the very reason many of them grow depressed and depressing is because |hey do not get the backing of the men of good will. It is easy for men to say that the country is going to the dogs and the church does not exert its proper influence, but bow can it, if it is hamstrung by lack of support from So many people who care about, an honest and decent life? Every church should be a rallying point for those who believe that there is a spiritual meaning in life and that there is a God who loves and cares what happens to men. WHY NOT ACCEPT THE INVITATION AND COME TO CHURCH NEXT SUNDAY?

A HAPPY HOME The Bible has a great deal to say about family life and Jesus indicated its importance by his frequent reference to God as Father and to men as brothers. In many ways, family life has deteriorated during the last century. Young people move about from one place to another much more frequently than they used to do. Recreation has centered outside, not inside the home. Divorce rates continue to rise. Totalitarian states seek to destroy the family as a significant social unity, for the ideals of love, justice and righteousness, which family life at its best provides, conflict with the unthinking obedience demanded by a totalitarian state. The family should be the basic unit of a democracy—a training school in democratic ideals for the young and a source of strength and inspiration for the citizens of a democracy. There is nothing better for a child to come from or an adult belong to than a good, wholesome. Godfearing fafnily. It is one of our greatest national resources and we should keep it that way. gHE The simple word “faith” sums up what makes the difference between attaining or not attaining the greatest values in life. According to Henry. J. Kaiser, the fully rounded faith has three interwoven parts: 1; Faith in yourself and your highest aspirations, which releases your creative inner powers and gives your daily life direction, adventure and meaning. 2. Faith in your fellow men, whom you’ love and serve. 3. Faith in God that answers the questions and longings of your soul — gives you help from the Higher Source — and sees the workings of the Creator in everything. — and " I Wisdofnwl A 13-year-old boy summed up his answer to the question, “What do you think makes a happy family?” in these words, "A happy family reminds me of a baseball team, with Mom pitching, Dad catching, and the kids fielding, with everyone taking a turn at bat.”—Parmley.
