11:00 A.M.—The Service. The
pastor of St. Paul’s, The Reverend
F. W. Moock, Jr., will preach on
“Faith that Overcomes the World.”
8:00 P.M.—“The Difference,” a
dramatic motion picture about col-
lege life, in a premier performance
in this community.
This picture is one of the spec-
ial features opening St. Paul’s Lu-
theran Church’s part in the nation-
wide campaign of the United Luth-
eran Church of America to raise
$6,000,000 for its 14 colleges and
9 seminaries in the United States
and Canada.
More than 4100 congregations
are participating in this effort. St.
Paul’s, a member of the Minister-
ium of Pennsylvania Synod, has a
special interest in support of the
work of Muhlenburg College and
the Philadelphia Seminary which
serve the youth of this area.
“The Difference” was produced
for the United Lutheran Church
in America by Cathedral Films of
Hollywood, the nation’s leading
producer of religious films. The top-
flight cast is headed by Dick Jones,
well known for his ‘Henry Aldrich’
role during the last war; Grandon
Rhodes, Frank Reicher, Ruth Lee,
and William Bevan. The film was
written by Henry Endress, United
retary, and was directed by John
T .Coyle.
The motion picture answers the
question, “Why Should I Support
a Church College?” by showing,
through a real-life story that the
Church institution places Christ at
the center of its educational pro-
gram and campus life. Through the
example of what happened to a
representative young man, it points
out that the church college tries
to send men and women into bus-
iness and the professions with a
Christian faith and philosophy.
This production will be released
to “other denominations August 1.
The quota for St. Paul's Luther-
an Church’s “over-the-top” cam-
paign is $1357.00, according to pas-
tor Moock. St. Paul’s chairman for
this Christian Higher Education
Year appeal is Robert F. Nicely.
He is supported by the following
committee: Hubert Boline, Chester
Hartman, Thomas E. Hontz, George
Howe, R. J. W. Templin, Paul M.
Winter, Theodore Woolbert.
Wednesday, March 8, 7:30 P.M.
—Lenten Vespers—Another oppor-
tunity to follow the Saviour of the
world on to the cross and final
victory.
To all the services of St.
Paul's Church, and its organ-
izations," a cordial welcome is
extended. Incidentally, on
March 12, new members will
be received. The Pastor will
gladly speak to you about this
important matter.
On Friday, February 24, a World
Day of Prayer Service was held in
St. Paul's. The theme was “Faith
for our Time,” and the service
which followed was written by
Michi Kawai, an outstanding Japan-
ese’ Christian woman. Mrs. Walter
Gerlach, Sr., Mrs. Thomas E. Hontz,
and Mrs. Jesse Yocum led devo-
tions; all the women present par-
ticipated in the responsive read-
ings and the Pastor, The Reverend
Frederick W. Moock, Jr. gave a
short talk on prayer.
Following the service, the meet-
ing of the Ladies’ Auxiliary was
held in the Church’s Sunday School
room. Mrs. Thomas E. Hontz, pres-
ident, conducted the business meet-
ing. It was announged that the
