AU Christiana may never kned in the same church, but there is an ojien mad to Christian unity. It is through Christian charity. If each of us would practice what wv believe, and what we preech, past hatreds and misunderstandings would melt away. Natiom could come together in an atmoephere of mutual trust and undemtandinj. The tensions between neighbors in a community would fade away and there would be a unity at heart and nmsd and pumas. J mub reminded that "with God all things are possible*. Believe in and live Christian chasity and yen will dhoovor how pood and pleasant tie wesid eaa be. hW year BIBIS daily end • O TO CMUKCH SUNDAY
