THE FEDERATED CHURCH
Special Programme Carried Out at the
Evening Service.

The Risen Christ was the topic of
Rev. A. W. Burdens sermon Easter
morning at the Federated church The
church. beautifully decorated with
Easter lilies. potted plants and cut
flowers which were given to the sick
and shut-ins. was filed with the larg-
est congregation of the year. Rev.
Mr.. Burden said in part:
The foundation of the Christian faith
rests on the answer to one question,
Did Christ truly rise from the dead ?
The open door of the tomb. with its
emptiness was a tremendous trial of
faith, in the eyes of Christ's follow
ers. straining of all the possibilities
of Heaven.
The Apostles were not expecting
such a thing, though they had been
told definitely by Christ it would
come.
While the evangelists have given
unquivocal testimony. and the Mas
ter predicted his own resurrection, we
have recorded twelve distinct appear
anees of Christ after his burial.
The uncontestable proof is the
change itself, the fact that they at
once became hopeful courageous be-
Seasonable views of the worlds needs.
In the evening an Easter programme
was carried out by the pupils of the
Sunday school. The following is the
programme:
