Early Bus From
Clare to .Detroit
Ready In January
■© A series of sermons on the greatest event in history, the birth of
Jesus of Nazareth is, underway at
the Congregational Church as preparation for a religious Christmas,
Each Advent , Sunday service is
opened with the call to worship,
"Prepare ye the way of the Lord",
indicating the faith of the modern
church that after preparation the
exalted Christ Is born in the lives
of men.
The title chosen by the pastor
for this, series is "God's Answer
To Troubled Souis", and is based1
upon the general text, "Through
the tender mercy of our God,
Whereby the day spring from on
high hath visited us", Luke 1: 78.
These messages on an applied
Christology each see in the birth
of the Savior Gods answer to the
deepest needs of every man,
The first of the series' was deliv-
The t}tle was
"Hopes and Fears", based upon the
text, "And the Angel said unto
them, Fear. not*, for- beholds I
bring yfitt gooa tidings sf great joy,
which shall be to all people.", Luke
2:10. In his sermon the pastor
stated that many moderns are so
fearful of God that their life gradually loses its meaning through an
unnecessary dtenial of Him.
This Sunday the message will be
"A Savior Is Born" based upon the
text, "For unto you is bora this
day in the city of David a Savior,
which is Christ the Lord", Luke
2:11.
December 16 the message will
be "The Wonder of Jesus", based
upon the text, "And) this shall be
a sign unto you; Ye shall find the
babe wrapped in swaddling clothes
lying in a manger," Luke 2:12.
The series will conclude on December 23 with "Glory To God In
the highest", based> on the text,
"And Suddenly there was with the
angel, a .multitude of the heavenly
host, praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and- on
earth, peace, good will toward
men". Luke 3.13-14.
At a Board of Trustees meeting
held last Monday it was decid-ed
unanimously to further apply the
religious meaning of Christmas by
sending the offering from the annual Christmas Eve Candlelight
Service to the wider church fellowship for ministerial relief.
