Easter at Trinity Church.

The services in the Episcopal
Church on Easter Day were well at
tended.
An unusual number of the mem
bres of the parish were present at
the early communion service at $50.
The later service was largely attend
ed. More than twenty members of
choir We're present and the service
throughout was most hearty and JOY
ous- The Rector's thoughts were
from this text, "That I May Know
Him, and the Power of His Resurrec-
ton" PHILIPPIANS iii-10.
This was the prayer of St. Paul and
should be ours; he was not satisfied
to know a truth unless he also knew
it's power; ii. e.) felt it's influence
upon himself. That is what makes
the difference in Christian men and
women, the fact that they have found
the true Christ and felt His influence
working in them. Our sober
churches burst forth into nobler
praise, He is Risen Allelula;' we put
on another garb; instead Of SORROW,
one of praise.
What makes such greetings on
this great day? Why, the assurance
that is hidden under the thoughts
of the Risen Christ, that 1--WE too
shall Rise" Such thought makes
Christian people feel more pleased,
for on the great resurrection morn
ing, father, mother, sister and broth
er meet once more. Has this
thought any effect upon us who are
tagging behind and only attends the
church when such a great day ar
rives, or when some friend or rela-
tive is brought to the church to hear
the last rites. It is not right, get to-
gether men, and take your places
in Gods House and search for that
power of the Risen Christ. l fear
many let go the power until next
Easter, like the electric power which
leaves us in darkness, so with the
souls of all who have not the Risen
power of Christ. Let us learn more
and more about this Savior
'That I may know Him, and the
power of His Resurrecton.
The ch1ldren's Easter service was
at 500 .. M when the pupils of the
school returned their Lenten we'll
filled Mite Boxes. The Rector spoke
fitting words to the children, and at
the close Of the service each child
received potted geranium.
In conclusion we must not forget
the Passion service, held on Good
Friday, for without the Lenten, and
closing scenes of our Lords life, we
could not very well enjoy an Easter
service. The. Rector was very
pleased to see SO many attend such
beautiful service on that day. It
makes us all feel on Easter Day that
new life has come to us, urging each
to rally round the old church.
We are glad to see such work un-
dertaken among our members -har-
mony seems to be showing signs of
progress among us.
Grant that we may all stand firm
to our promise.
20 Jesus ! have promised to serve
Thee to the end"
