. 1 The Church... A THE HOPE OF OUR COMMUNITY, OUR NATION I raSA When Tom retired, it seemed as if his dreams had some true. For years he and Grace had been planning. There would be that little pink house in Florida and time to do all the things they wanted. They could keep in touch with their friends back home, and there would be occasional visits back and forth. What they hadn't realized was how much they would miss their church. It had been such a part of their life! Now it seemed that no other church could fill the gap. In fact, they didn't go to another church their first few I weeks in Florida. But finally one Sunday they went to the little church they had been B passing each day on the way to the golf course. True, it wasn't like the II church back home—outwardly. But, when you got down to essentials, it was the same. If you have moved to another community, find a new yA J ~ A church home. Regardless of its appearance, remember that it is God's House and in it you will be welcome.

These words of the Apostle Paul to the Corinthians will be included in the Bible selections: “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” A passage to be read from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy states: “Willingness to become as a little child and to leave the old for the new. renders thought receptive of the advanced idea. Gladness to leave the false landmarks and joy to see them disappear. — this disposition helps to precipitate the ultimate harmony. The purification of sense and self is a proof of progress ’
