On April 26, 1S47, the Evangelical
Lutheran Synod of Missouri, Ohio.
and other States was founded in
Chicago, ILL.,, on April 26th, past rs
years had elapsed since this memoir
able event. Throughout our Missouri
Synod. which is the largest Lutheran
Synod of our country, this event is
being commemorated with special
services of praise and glory to God
for his great goodness. Our New Or
leans congregations will observe this
Jubilee this coming Sunday. Special
services will be held in all churches
in the morning.
1t has ever been the custom of the
children of God, to give thanks offer
ings to God on such great festivals.
The wonderful guidance and protec-
ton Of God during these IS years
should move our hearts to true thank
fulness and make us willing to offer
of our earthly goods for the kingdom
of Christ. Therefore a special collec-
ton will be raised Sunday morning
as Jubilee Collection. Special en-
velopes were, given out last Sunday
morning and will be given out again
tonight. Return these envelopes Sun
day morning with the gift you wish
to give God as a special offering on
this Jubilee celebration.
The collection raised will be ap-
portioned to the Church Extension
Fund. This fund provides money for
loans to poor congregations who need
church buildings but cannot afford to
build them. The money is loaned
without interest and the congregation
pays the debt as it is able to. In this
way our mission work is greatly
helped and Christ Gospel is preached
unhindered. In giving for this cause
you are giving for the expansion of
Christ's kingdom.
In the afternoon at $3.50 a special
will be held in the Auditorium of the
Jerusalem Temple. Rev. NJ. w. HI.
Hollis will be the speaker. A mass
choir and Sunday School Children's
Chorus will render some suitable
hymns. Come and join in these special
services of jubilation and praises to
Him who has directed and so
graciously protected our Synod dur.
ing these IS years.
We are badly in need of Sunday
School teachers. The last several Sun
days some of our teachers were absent
and their absence was felt. Let us
all work together and be regular in
our duties as Sunday School teachers.
Don't forget to get a substitute if
you must be absent. But let it be a
real must" before you miss a session
Don't allow every little excuse to
Keep you from our Sunday School
sessions. Faithful teachers set a good
example to the children, but irregu.
larlty soon begets irregularity also
among the children. Let us all bear
this in mind.
The voting members of Trinity meet
IN regular monthly meeting this com.
ing Friday night. Meeting begins
promptly at 1880.
The Sunday School picnic will be
held on Saturday, May 20, at City
Park. Every child should bring its
two ferry tickets and street car fare
for both ways. Meeting place is at
the church. Time of meeting 500
a. m. Number Of trees will be an.
nounced as soon as possible.
