The herald., 1919-01-23

The chief hope of the success of
the Missionary Centenary movement
is prayer. 1t was born in a spirit of
prayer and every advanced step has
been accomplished by this attitude.
Secondly, By the Acknowledgement
of Christian stewardship, whereby we
as Christian stewards should sys>
tematically and regularly give to the
Masters course, of that which he in
trusts to our keeping. Now, let us get
together as Church and pray and
give as the Lord has blessed us. Capt
Zatarains remarks, were well re-
ceived and fully appreciated. Next
Sunday night Miss Roberta Hafkes-
bring will be the four-minute speaker.
There will be no public collections
taken for the Centenary fund. The
emphasis of the movement will be
placed upon the stewardship of prayer
and life. Do not miss these great soul
string meetings that are being held
in our church. Keep abreast with the
things of the church.
