Plan Sunday Nite
Instant Replay
Of Earlier Service
The Worship & Preaching
Commission of St. Mark’s
United Methodist Church, is
sponsoring an unusual
Sunday evening program on
March 24 at 7 o'clock in the
Sanctuary. It is being billed
as an ‘‘Instant Replay”
because it will be a flashback
of the Sunday morning
worship experience in an
endeavor to reflect in depth
upon what was done — and
why it was done.
The Pastor, W. Richard
Kohler; the organist, Gerald
Miller, and the choir
directress, Miss Marilyn
Strominger, will provide
program notes and ex-
planations. Dialogue with
the members of the wor-
shipping congregation will
be encouraged.
The program is intended to
give church members a
better understanding of the
dynamics and processes in
the worship experience each
Sunday. It also is hoped that
congregational participation
will reveal ways and means
of making worship in-
novative, personal and more
meaningful.
Mrs. Bernerd Grissinger is
chairperson for the Com-
mission on Worship and
Preaching. She extends a
welcome to the public to
attend.
