Methodist Church Notes

The old year is past and the new
year is here with the door of opportun-
.ity wide open and insisting that each
one make his contribution, that each
one render more efficient service. Let's
strive to make this year better than
the past. To do this we must give
more largely Of ourselves and service.
Christ came serving, not being served
and surely men are not greater than
He. There are no exceptions. it is the
duty of every person in the community
to support every organization in the
community that has for its objective
the betterment of society. And the
leading and most powerful factor in
civilization is the church. 1t, by its
contribution to society, has brought
every man, woman and child under
very great obligation to it, and to re-
fuse to give your support is an express
sion of ingratitude. Our greatest need
is for the awakening here.
If you want the church to die just
stay away and let it alone and you
sound the death knell and it won't be
long before some one will be playing
the funeral march. Our church lead
ers are becoming aware of the menac-
! ing effect fthe evil of nOn-church-go-
| ing. AS proof / give a quotation from
Bishop Gambler: This manner of
some to absent themselves from the
worshipful assemblies of the faithful,
brings subtle and serious perils to the
| soul. The absence of Thomas from
| the assembly of the eleven perhaps
sprang from doubt, which would have
been removed sooner if he had not been
away from their company when the
risen Lord revealed himself to them.
Jesus knew where the doubling apostle
was in his absenteeism, but the Lord
granted him no revelation in his self
appointed sOlitariness. Thomas met
his risen redeemer when he met again
with his fellow apostles, and there in
their fellowship his doubt was dis
solved and his faith restored. When
one habitually neglects the worship of
God, the darkness of doubt creeps over
the soul from which follows often the
chill of spiritual death. 1t is well,
therefore, that a National Go To Church
campaign has been proposed. The SUI
preme need of the American people
just now is a nationwide revival of
religion. Perhaps this simultaneous
effort in every part of the country to
induce men, women and children to go
to church may contribute to bring to
pass that glorious result"
You will see from the above quota
tion that my plea for you to attend
church is not the wall of discouraged
pastor, but the leaders of the church
