The writer was favorably im-

the unusual trees, the gorgeous

All in all, it was a very enjoyable
trip, and we hope to go again at

St. Paul's Lutheran
9:45 AM. Sunday School. This
great organization of the Church
meets every Sunday morning in or-
der to gain an understanding of the
wonderful truths of the Bible. It is
only through the Bibile that we can
learn to know God. We can say
then, the Bible is God’s Word,
which He inspired men to set down
in writing, that we, and all ages,
might know Jesus Christ for the
salvation of our souls.
11:00 AM. The Service.
This devotional period will be
another great event in the life of
St. Paul's Lutheran Church. We
have been richly blessed on the
second Sunday of each month, since
February, 1949, in receiving new
members into our Christian fellow-
ship, This day will be no excep-
tion. New members will be’ re-
ceived. In addition to this rite of
the Church, we shall have the hon-
or of having with us the Reverend
Charles M. Cooper, PhD. of our
Philadelphia Seminary who will
preach for us on the subject of
Christian Higher Education. Dr.
Cooper is a former teacher of St.
Paul’s pastor, the Rev. F. W. Moock,
Jr., holding the title of Professor of
Old Testament at the Philadelphia
Seminary.
We should at this time say a
word concerning this particular in-
stitution. The Lutheran Theological
Seminary at Philadelphia is “to ed-
ucate and train worthy and com-
petent Christian men for the pub-
lic ministry of the Gospel, especially
in: the Lutheran Church.” It is an
institution of the church, founded
by the Church, supported and op-
erated by the Church and for the
Church. The Seminary recognizes
that theology is not properly an end
in itself, but rather an indispens-
able means to an end that far tran-
scends it. Theology is the formu-
lated knowledge of the truth which
the minister of the Gospel has to
preach and teach and apply to the
hearts and consciences of men for
their salvation and for their en-
trance into the kingdom of God.
It is hoped that every member of
St. Paul’s congregation will be pre-
sent and bring along a friend or a
neighbor to hear this great Lu-
theran clergyman.
7:00 P.M. A meeting of all youth
of the Church. It is here that all
teen agers gather in Christian fel-
lowship for devotions and clean so-
ciel fun. Plans are being laid by
St. Paul's Luther League, for a play
and strawberry festival,
Wednesday evening Services are
held during Lent at 7:30 P.M. It
is at these Services that we follow
our Lord, Jesus Christ, from Jeru-
salem to the cross of Calvary.
St. Paul's Church is a working
Church in a growing community in
order to bring the Gospel to the
individual soul. We claim that four
continuous visits with us at our
Services of. worship will automat-
ically bring you back for the Sun-
days following. Try it and see for
yourself.
Last Sunday morning the Twenty-
fifth Anniversary Committee met
briefly to formulate plans for St.
Paul's Twenty-fifth Anniversary.
Future meétings will be held for
our Congregational dinner on May
10, 1950. The Committee consists
of R. J. W. Templin, Chairman,
Charles Dressel and Newton Ness.
