Church Notes
The church school was well at
tended Sunday morning and people
seem more interested in the. church |
and church school than formerly.
This is we'll, as there was decided |
need of improvement. The lesson for !
the day was very interesting. Title,
How Faith Gives Courage" The
student can learn much about the
wandering of the Children of Israel
by the study of the lessons of the
present quarter, but now he will
find out the goodness of God toward /
a rebellious people.
The people after 40 years of wan
dering have come near the promised
land and God spoke to Moses and
told him to send men to view the
land and bring back report as to
its adaptability as dwelling place.
The spies which they really re-
turned after a sojourn of 40 days
and made the following report.
They said the land howeth with
milk and honey but the people who
dwell in it are strong and live in
cities which are fortified. We cannot
take it. So the ten said Oh, ye of
little faith, but there were two Cal
eb and Joshua who had sufficient
faith in God to say to the people:
Let us go in and possess it, which
they did
It takes faith in God to do any
thing successful in His name. If
Caleb and Joshua had been of the
same mind as the other ten spies,
hen perhaps the Children of Israel
would never have possessed the :
and. Prayer and faith will produce
he work which will be acceptable
o God
We understand the morning SER
non was of high order.
The Epworth League, Mrs. George
A. Jester, leader, had a very nice
program.
The evening sermon by the pastor,
which followed, was also very inter {
ssting.
