Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 221, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 14 September 1916 — Preshyterian Church. [ARTICLE]

Preshyterian Church.

Rev. J. Budman Fleming, Minister. 9:30 Bible school v 10:45 Morning worship and sermon, subject: “Fishers of Men.” 7:30 Evening worship and sermon, subject: “Thirsting for God.” “If I was not with you in person I was with you in spirit.” That has been used as an excuse for absence from church and a quieting potion for conscience but it is a poor substitute for personal presence. Spirits do not make up congregations and when one can be there in the body and is not he might as well keep his spirit at home with him.
