St. Christophers Catholic Church Rev. L. A. Lindemann .... —— Pastor , • Sunday Masses: 6:00 o’clock Weekday Masses At the eight-thiry o’clock Mass Sunday—'the second Sunday in the month—the women of St. Christopher will receive Holy Communion. On Thursday evening, .February 17th will be held the last of the weekly card parties at St. Christopher until after Easter. The hostesses for the evening will be Mesdames L. Benedetto, Olivia Bische, Christine Bostwick, Helen Mary Wagner, (Dbrothy Unnewehr, Rosemary Thompson and Maxine Thursbay. If you like to play cards come down to this party and enjoy yourself. Young people of Speedway watch the School Poster for the date of the dance to be given at £t Christopher before the beginning of Lent * Father Lindemann made several announcements Sunday morning at all the Masses. He stated that all the U.S.O. centers were to have open house that day, and suggested that anyone who could should try to visit them. He read a leter from the Red Cross in which they appealed to more people to be blood donors. Cards were in the back of the Church to be filled out by anyone who could give blood, and father offered to take the cards to the Red Cross' headquarters. He also made an appeal in behalf of the 4th War Bond Drive. He suggested that he would be happy to receive bonds in place of cash from anyone who had not made the contribution asked of each family and working person, which contribution was to take the place of the annual Lawn Festival. He made it clear that many families had' not yet met their obligation, and that while he did not intend to publish the names of those who had given, he planned on visiting or writing to each family who had not yet given. He said that it wasn’t fair to those families who had already done their share, or that he had not done his duty to his Church or his God, until he had made every effort to give each family the opportunity to earn themselves the merit gained by voluntary giving. He concluded by saying that by buying a War Bond and paying their obligations, they would be doing two good things. Has a Boy Scout knocked at your door yet? if not, when he does, be ready to sign a pledge card to buy ANOTHER War Bond, no matter how it may pinch, or how many you already have bought. Don’t be selfish or don’t expect somebody else to do your buying, but encourage the Boy Scouts who are doing a fine job and be happy you did, instead of being sorry that you didn’t—be happy in the thought that maybe your Bond saved an American life, instead of wondering if your not buying a Bond was the cause of some boy not coming back. Get 'behind the Attack, and speed Victory. Let’s be done with the enemies who deliberately tomb our hospitals. C Why are you fearful? Are you stiftwithoUt faith? —St. Mark 4:40. f —Nora Bray

St. Andrew's Lutheran Church (Worshipping in Speedway Town Hall) Rev. Robert H. Heine, PaFor' 1703 Gerrard Drive Svnday School 9:30 a. m. Morning Worship 10:45 a. m. Sermon subject: “Seed Time and Harvest” THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER furnishes the text for Sunday’s Gospel. IDo you remember the story? Some seed fell on the beaten pathway and was trodden down or carried off by birds. Some fell on rocky soil and withered for lack of moisture because it had no roots. Others fell on thorny ground and was choked out. But some fell on good ground and brought forth an abundant harvest. Jesus said 'the soil of the human heart is comparable to the four fields. The Seed, God’s Word, must be received with a right spirit and an open mind. When it is held fast it patiently yields a return. 1944 YEAR BOOKS of the United Lutheran Church will be distributed Sunday morning following the service.
