EVERYTHING IN BUILDING SUPPLIES
By Rev. Roy Miller
It is by the "folly of preaching,"
God reminds mankind, that the world
is to be saved. As a nation we have
just witnessed the effectiveness of
persistent proclamations by political
aspirants. Mass meetings, rallies,
radio time, were all used to spread
the eronomic good news of a new
era. As a result, the largest vote
ever cast in America was recorded.
Several years before this example
was given to us, Christian leaders
were thinking about a vast offensive
for Christ on the basis of the spoken
word. This has come to be known as
"The National Preaching Mission." It
is a sincere attempt to extend the
knowledge of Christ without brass
bands, fan-flare, or hysteria.
Beginning Sunday night, November
15, residents of Saline and in nearby
districts are invited to listen to the
frank, informative messages of the
gospel as presented by two of our
local ministers in co-operating church-
cc. On Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday nights, the Rev. (Bert) Ede, pastor of tlie Methodist church, will
preach in the Federated church; and
on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and
Sunday nights, the Rev. Roy Miller,
pastor of the Federated church, will
preach in the Methodist church. The
purpose of these services is to present
information about, and to interpret,
Christ's message in its relation to
present individual and social needs.
The great hymns of the church will
be sung; and an opportunity will be
given to questioners to discuss the
meaning of the Christian way of .life
No fair question will be evaded. Come
with your problems and perplexities,
and the best Christian counsel available will be offered to you. The services will begin at 7:30 promptly, and
continue for about an hour.
